    The Marlin 1894 Club

    I've got an 1894S in .45 Colt :D I love that thing. It shoots inxpensive hard cast bullets beautifully. I'm looking to complete it with some tang sights. I had some Skinner ladder sights on it but it didn't go low enough for 100y shooting - eyes pretty much need them for past 50y.

    The Marlin 39 Club

    Late to the party... Here's my 39, first year of production (err... 1939) with a no-prefix S/N. It wears correct Lyman No 1a tang sights and a matching globe front of the same vintage. The best part is that I was living in New Haven (partly) at the time that I bought it and actually...

    Speer replica or clone load 124gr +P Gold Dot GDHP & Fed HST 147gr??

    Remington 124 gr JHP's on top of 4.6 gr of Unique go 1090 fps out of my Glock 26. The factory Gold Dot ammo supposedly does about 1150 fps. The pic is from this Sunday, in the cold. I dunno, add a grain or two extra... :)

    Can a .32 Ruger Single Six be bored out to 9mm?

    It is a true 4". It is a true 4". Clements had to cut the ejector rod housing too. That's a Douglas barrel BTW :)

    Can a .32 Ruger Single Six be bored out to 9mm?

    I was thinking of the same thing I was just thinking of the same thing. I recently had a Single Six rimfire Bisley chopped down to 4" by Clements Custom Guns and I made a Kydex IWB J-clip holster for it. It is THE BEST, most comfortable, IWB strong side carry gun I have. So much so that I...

    If you could only have one handgun, what would it be?

    Glock 26... ...because it can be on me to do what handguns are supposed to do - nothing more not less. It is the first pistol I had bought and the last that will stay. The rest of 'em are toys for the pleasure of shooting.

    9mm ain't all that bad???

    Shoot 9mm out of a longer barrel... ...like from a G17L and you get near .357 magnum ballistics from a 115 gr projectile (or so I have read) without the recoil.

    Armed on a Backpacking Trip

    I'd stick w/ the weapon with which you are familiar... ...AND proficient. Really though, just keep your wits about you and prevent the bubbles from floating off the top of your head as you enjoy nature's splendor. From what I understand, many wise folks up in Canada think a rimfire pistol is...

    Shooting really poorly

    What has worked for me... If you are a righty, squeeze tightly w/ the left hand and almost none at all (initially) with the trigger hand. Let the trigger hand only worry about the trigger finger. This helps prevent sympathetic squeeze of your whole right hand when you pull the trigger which may...

    I like this thread This is my first post on THR so... "HELLO WORLD" :) My and my older brother find the idea of "the bag of evil" very entertaining and practical. No bag is "evil", of course, this is just in jest and a term I like from here: http://www.mercop.com/docs/bag.htm The...
