    Uberti Cattleman Hombre- Opinions Please?

    MCgunner, I can empathize with the cap and ball fondness. In 1970 when wife and I were stuck in Oakland, California while going to Navy schools on Treasure Island I really missed my guns at home in Ohio. I bought an 1851 Clone through the mail and we often went to the range up in the hills and...

    New M1A, now need optics advice

    Re: sadlak vs Springfield 4th gen steel mount. About the only difference I can see in the two is that the Springfield is cut out in center and the Sadlak rail runs full length. Any problems with ejected casings hitting the sadlak rail?

    New M1A, now need optics advice

    OK, I read through the Springfield PDF file on installing the mount and I think I had all my questions answered. It appears the new third contact point on the Gen 4's is the same as the SADLAK being an adjustable screw at the front of receiver that 'tilts' the mount front-to-rear, and they have...

    New M1A, now need optics advice

    Thanks Madcratebuilder, I had just joined the M14 group and am now in the process of going through all the subjects. With most gun groups, motorcycles groups, and I'm sure about anything else ever talked about in a 'group' it's very easy to get an 'opinion' with no facts to back it up and...

    New M1A, now need optics advice

    Thanks jeepguy, but, still looking for better info on the Springfield gen 4 steel mount? Still no answer about WHY the other brands are better? SADLAK certainly has a better webpage for their mounts than the single little pic that Springfield has. But, with the "Loaded" coupon with the gun the...

    New M1A, now need optics advice

    Does anyone have a good link to a video or drawing or manual PDF showing HOW the Sprinfield mounts with the STEEL mount ( which I HEAR has 3 contact points) vs the aluminum mount. Springfields picture on their website is worthless and I cannot find one in real-life to look at or see one mounted...

    Uberti Cattleman Hombre- Opinions Please?

    I have a Cimmeron ( same as Uberti) "Thunderer" model with birdshead grip and short barrel in .45LC. The finish and fit is beautiful on it! In my opinion, Uberti, Cimmeron and Baretta get undo bashing on talk forums. If you haven't seen any of the Uberti rifles you are missing some beauties...

    New M1A, now need optics advice

    I see a LOT of compliments on the Sadlak mount, but, what is wrong with the steel mount that Springfield sells for their gun? I have a new M1A Scout Squad and not sure if I want a scope mounted on the receiver or use the forward pic rail. My eyes aren't what they used to be and I have...
