Got it in place.

Found a nice Model 31 in 16 gauge from 1934 in excellent shape. Have disassembled and cleaned, now am reassembling with help from the original Remington manual for this model. However the ejector placement is not only not covered but also not pictured. Anyone familiar enough with this model...

Help scope my 721 Hello all, I'm a revolver guy who has finally purchased a rifle: a Remington 721 in 30.06. The rifle has no scope or mounts. So... which would you choose and why? Thanks in advance, I'm very new to this. edited to change thread title.

Hi MedGrl, Get yourself a .22 revolver. Ammo is dirt cheap and everything you learn with it (including how to shoot without flinching) will apply to all others you purchase afterwards. Which .22? Without a doubt I recommend the Smith & Wesson K22 Masterpiece. You will have to buy one used as...

What some of the earlier posters said as well as an answer to your other question re: hunting: Yes many do hunt with their S&W Mountain Guns.

Kurt, Sounds to me that you may have the 629-2 Classic Hunter.. though the grips are throwing me. Only 2500 made (in 1989) and i believe they all came as mine did with Hogue rubber grips. Is yours a full lug? Mine is an amazingly accurate gun and I think you will find yours very useful for...

Smith & Wesson Model 27-2 with 3.5" barrel. Butter smooth double action, crisp light single action, unbelievable accuracy, and the pleasure of knowing you own a classic. Yes it will cost you more.. but then it also will continue to appreciate in value as well.

Hello all, Wondering if anyone here has had personal experience with Remingtons Hevi-Shot Nitro Magnum High Velocity Waterfowl Loads on ducks? I am reading their current catalog and theyclaim equal pellet energy at 3 shot sizes smaller than steel. Also says that Hevi Shot pellets have 25% more...

Thanks you all for the info thusfar.. very interesting, to say the least. Did not get pics last night - will try for tonight. Dan

will try for pics tonight.

Thanks gents, I am passing this info on to my neighbor. Re: the model of 1894 - how can we tell if the sights are original? They sure look as old as the rest of the gun, etc. Also re: its age: the butt plate appears to be made of a black plastic. Am I right in assuming that this therefore...

That did it! Thanks Wheel. That was a very cool site and has been added to my favorites.

Just bought this used 20 ga and it looks great - actually it appears unfired. I am wanting to inspect and oil the interior and can't for the life of me break it down! Is it supposed to come apart the same way as an 870?

Hello forum, My neighbor recently came into (family) 2 rifles and has asked me to seek info here about them. 1) Winchester Model of 1894, 38-55, serial #513XX. Has an octagonal barrel for the first 12" or so and D.W. King sights. Any infor is very much appreciated.. particularly age, if ammo...

How very refreshing to read these views in a hunting forum. By the way I could not agree more re: both the health and vitality of elk gene pools, Yellowstone Park, and the need for ranchers to get a more realistic perspective on grazing their animals in places (often public lands) populated by...

Nice to see there are others who feel the same re" the plain barrel and hunting. I once again exposed my ignorance re: sporting clays and want to thank you all for the information on the subject.

Honestly... i find it shoulders faster, swings faster and more 'naturally', and is lighter to carry in the field. Re: the touted heat transfer of the vented barrel.. given that i can't legally fire more than 3 consecutive rounds I don't believe the barrel heats up sufficiently to make a...

Thank You for sharing your opinions and interesting info/history. A little background from my end: i only own 2 shotguns - both 870 Wingmasters - and I think they are wonderful tools. Simple, no-frills, working devices that seem very reliable and that i don't mind getting in the weather a bit...

Curious as to your thoughts re: the differences between and strengths of these 2 guns. thanks.

my understanding is that because it has not been used in competition like the 12 and 20 has the demand/popularity of it and its components dramatically dropped off.
