Thanks for the ideas everyone. I like the idea of completely replacing the stock, assuming I can get one that accommodates the Ruger Model 77's with the side safety (non-tang safety). I had the barrel floated 20 years ago... For a stock change, that shouldn't be an issue I assume?

No I don't, he pitched it. I have resigned to the fact that perhaps another spacer can be used, and with the addition of the Pachmayr pad, perhaps that would still be better than it is. Also forgot to mention-- functionally the rifle works fine, but I want to hand it down to my son as a...

When I lived in Arkansas, a gunsmith slaughtered the wood stock on my Ruger m77. He was supposed to remove the stock pad, cut shorter, and add a thicker Pachmayr pad to result in the same length of pull. He ended up cutting the stock way too short by mistake, adding a thick black spacer, and...

If you shoot a Benelli enough, and load in a hurry-- your thumb will get pinched good. Not operator error, but thanks for the vote of confidence :banghead: It is not just the U-shaped notch, but even the edges are set fairly far back from the rear of the magazine on the factory carrier. I...

I called Jeff today, getting ready to send my M2 in for some work-- he said that he does indeed remove the carrier before welding. Although he could not tell me what the deal was with the rat toe and olive....

I think it is 100% now. Did more research and he is very well known and reliable, so I am sure he took the carrier off before he welded it. Jeff Cockrum with C-Rum LLC, now that the issue is gone, I am very happy with his work. I really like the Taran Tactical jumbo bolt release he...

I guess we will find out tomorrow, I plan to ask him. Will post update tomorrow night

GREAT NEWS-- I ran 3 boxes of 1-1/8 oz trap loads today, and it did not skip a beat. It had to be the plastic crap (see attached photo) the gunsmith found under the rear part of the hammer, making it harder to engage, therefore causing the bolt to "not come back all the way" with the trap loads...

As mentioned, it cycled with 1-1/8 ounce loads just fine with the Wolff spring before the work. Over a case of shells without a blip, so that is incorrect. I did not ask him whether he removed the lifter for welding, I wonder why not removing the lifter would ruin the trigger group? it...

Virginian, no proof of that-- the problem is not out-of-battery, it was full extraction of the 1-1/8 oz hull Cowboy-- please elaborate. Not really sure what you mean.... The problem is not guiding the shell home (assume you mean loading), it is fully ejecting the 1-1/8 oz hull. The...

Crap I am tired, been a long day... Hammer. Jeez. I am not even going to try to convince any readers that I am not that big of an idiot, ha The throating of the barrel is only around the edge of the chamber, not very deep into the barrel at all. Could this have caused an issue? It does...

The "throating" was just opening up the edge where the shell enters, appears to be very light. Supposed to help with feeding issues (ironically, huh?)... It was only $15, and I have had the out-of -battery issue on occasion, he said it was supposed to help with that. I took it apart again...

I am aware of that, but man-- Those parts are HIGH, and we're probably talking over $300 down the drain once it is all said and done. This puts a sour taste in my mouth for any more custom work, to be honest. thanks for the tip though. To be fair, I need to give him a chance to rectify...

Hi everyone.... I shoot a Benelli M2 for clays (2-4 cases/year) and a Super Black Eagle II for ducks (a case of steel, and as a loaner gun maybe a case of 1-1/8 oz trap shells/year). I was piddling around on the web recently and saw some custom work that could be done. After some research and...

Get one of these.... The stock adjusts from 11-14" LOP, thus will grow with him-- eventually he can keep the AR and get a real deer rifle when he grows up

thank you for the info!

I have a Windham Weaponry WW-15 .556, I believe the flash hider can be removed (threaded on). Are they the same threading that would accomodate a can (suppressor)? Thanks in advance.

A Browning BPS is not a more reliable gun than an 870, sorry. The Brownings that cost more are due to nicer wood and nicer bluing. Plus, there are other reasons why a shotgun (or any other product for that matter) can be on backorder other than being the most commonly-purchased shotgun...

Mine had the same issue, but not too bad to where it affects shooting. I also asked for a replacement metal barrel band to replace the plastic one. They did so for free--great customer service. I am not a hater, because I want to support the company. That said, my Henry 16" .22 lever...

I have a Henry .22 carbine--it is VERY accurate but problem is it hangs up badly. When you eject a spent round the next one gets hung up by throwing the nose up too high above the chamber, so it jams. You have to throw the lever at the right speed (not too slow, not too fast), or it gets hung...
