    The best $50 I ever spent

    Hi Maverick! Thanks for the note! Check out the Craigslist in your area for old iron. I recently found two nice benchtop lathes for friends , both of them were less than $500.00! A nice 9" Logan 210 with gearbox and a 12" Atlas benchtop that I am keeping for a 2nd. With one of these little gems...

    The best $50 I ever spent

    Hi Maverick, Sorry if my post sounded a little "Smart A&*ed", I certainly did not mean for it to. Upon reading my own comment I would have probably thought it was a wisecrack too. Here are some photos of how I crown barrels, like they say, a picture is worth a thousand words! Jerry A...

    The best $50 I ever spent

    Thats awesome! But...Having a limited machinist background, don't let him BS you about the crown being off by 4-tenths. I sincerely doubt he would make a dime if he properly setup and ACCURATELY measured all of his work to the 4th decimal place. Its simply not necessary nor relevant to work to...

    hooplever for win.'94

    Hi, I have been playing with leverguns for a while and have had big-loops and non-big loops guns. I have come to this realization. If you are wearing gloves so big and bulky to necessitate having a huge lever loop how in the hell can you pull the trigger with them on? :evil: Ha ha! I usually...

    dry firing...here we go...

    Dry firing is some of the most convenient, cheap and best trigger training (EG: Muscle Memory) that one can do. I often keep either a Glock or Revolver on the coffee table. I use Snap caps in revolver for firing pin rebound , nothing needed for the autoloader. Its great fun to shoot people on...

    The last time you did this...? Pics

    That is a very interesting observation, I had a similar experience with the young man I hosted yesterday. I took along an M-4gery, a .22 single shot rifle and a bearcat revolver. I of course thought the M-4 would be the biggest "Fun" for him. It turned out, that of all the guns, the bearcat...

    CZ 527 Carbine sights

    I am not a BSA fan either but to be fair, let me analogize; Would you guys buy Black & Decker tools? Me either, I would choose DeWalt over many of the "Discount" or "Cheap" brands; You know something funny? The are made by the same company, they make two different levels or "qualities" of...
