    Winchester High wall parts problem

    A customer brought in a 22 cal High Wall that his father had built(?). for some reason the tang was soldered in and there was a whole lot of rust inside. Go figure. Any way it is missing the sear. I'm hoping a current repro sear will work. Also the mainspring is a wire spring rather than flat...

    Ebay and PayPal

    I was doing all the right things except paypal policy is no guns or any parts for guns are forbidden. You are lucky so far. 20 years up to 2018 there was no problem. Now it is. May I suggest that you don't keep any money in your account. when they do close out your account that money is theirs...

    Ebay and PayPal

    All my banking is done with gun friendly institutions, my mortgage is also done gun friendly. I am financing new "gun shop" equipment with a very friendly lender. I guess you must work for PayPal or voted for Hillary. My point is PayPal. They can and will freeze your account. I've never been...

    Ebay and PayPal

    Am I the only one to see that PayPal can and will freeze your account and hold any money at any time they choose. I appose any discrimination based on my support of the second amendment to the Constitution of the United Stats of America. If every gun owner closed their PayPal account before it...

    Ebay and PayPal

    I just purchased a gun part on ebay. Not unusual cuz lots of gun parts and assories are sold there. What is disturbing is I have a web site that sells gun parts for Thompson SMG and semi auto plus muzzlebreaks and other parts. Paypal closed my account as it is their policy to NOT fund the sale...

    Smith & Wesson Mod. 145 frame identification

    I solved the problem. The hammer bottom platform, where it meets the face of the rebound slide was binding. A fine honing stone on that ramped surface took out the slight roughness and then Brownells Action Lub Plus, with repeated double action, freed it up. Works great now. And It retains the...

    Smith & Wesson Mod. 145 frame identification

    I should have included "without me slightly drawing the hammer back" The rebound slide is supposed to perform this action.

    Smith & Wesson Mod. 145 frame identification

    Yep 14-5 and I apologize to anyone who took a fence. The LA Police Dept is his 68-2. Now that my head is back on straight and some what on my shoulders I have a problem with the 14-5 hammer replacement. I located a standard spur (.375) hammer for it. The original is the .5 target hammer. But...

    Smith & Wesson Mod. 145 frame identification

    No this is a mod 145 revolver .38 spcl. If I could post a picture you would see. Just because you've never seen one does not mean it doesn't really exist.

    Smith & Wesson Mod. 145 frame identification

    I was asked to replace a hammer for a S&W mod. 145 in .38 cal. My question is frame size. This gun was issued only to CA. police oficers and had the single action notch removed from the hammer.

    .277 Wysong Rogue won't chamber

    Herters U9 The case neck has now been turned. Bolt closes nice and easy until I install the extractor. It will not push out of the way easy to snap over the rim. I have polished the plunger and even installed a too weak plunger spring but it still does not want to move. The bevel on the plunger...

    .277 Wysong Rogue won't chamber

    A customer brought me a project. Convert a Herter's U9 to 277 Wysong. The reamer was supplied by PTG and his dies made by Hornady(I think). The cases are sized from GUNWERKS 7mm LRM. The sized case chambers good, but as soon as a bullet is inserted I can't close the bolt without brute force...

    Silver solder flux ruins blue

    Jim, thanks for the tip on the flux and solder. I just got stay-brite from midway. And I already have a big jar of the flux. What I haven't done in the past is use the flux sparingly. I'll do just what you suggest next time.

    Silver solder flux ruins blue

    All very interesting replies. My wish is to not have to re-blue a perfectly good barrel, so the graphite or welders chalk to prevent solder flow is a good start. maybe holding the barrel with the sight on the bottom will stop the flux from flowing up.
