Can someone post a cost breakdown for reloading 223 and 9mm. Someone just asked me, I don't remember off hand, and don't generally figure it out often. and I don't have access to my books/notes at the moment. Thanks

That is kind of the plan, I am looking for a shooter grade barrel. The Barrel (original) looks near new. My neighbor's dad was a dentist in the Navy, so I don't think he had a call to fire it much. The guy I got it from has been my neighbor for 30 years, So I have a pretty good idea how much...

Yesterday I picked up a Colt 1911a1 (circa 1944) from my neighbor, It was his fathers which he carried in tha Pacific in WW2. I have decided that it will need a barrel and mainspring, both of which I can easily change. My question is What Mainspring is the correct weight? I need a...

Normally I would say colt hands down. Better resale value better internals but I am not much of a 70 series fan myself

My grandfather purchased a Winchester 94 about 6 months before he died he never took it out of the box after he brought it home. My grandmother had it for a few decades, and I eventually got it about 13 years ago. I don't even own a box of 30-30's so I have never shot it. It is packed away...

Im originally from Michigan, the people that hunt, and own firearms up there are staggering. Unfortunately at the moment I am in illinois, and we have all the idiots in the northeast corner. but in the rest of the state there are many many gun owners, the farther south you go the more there are.

Thanks for the heads up AD

So I am thinking its time to add a Luger to my collection. I am aware there are many factors that can contribute or detract to the value beyond the obvious condition, matching numbers, etc. I have narrowed it down to a early/prewar year, but beyond that i need to gather some more info...

Check into a large electrical box. You can most likley pick one up at a junk yard, that has been removed from a commercial property pretty cheap. Rip out the guts and you are all set. A friend of mine is a electrician did this in his garage, for a place to store valuable stuff.

Back in the day, my grandfather picked up 4 1903 springfields at the rock island arsenal. He hand selected them, and sporterized 2 of them. I have 1 uncut, and 1 sporterized of the original 4. He paid $25 each at the time.

Well I pulled the trigger so to speak and ordered a Winchester starter cannon. It takes 10 ga 2 7/8 blanks. A box of blanks costs right at $50. I have never reloaded shotgun shells (been loading metallic for 10 years) I am thinking that these could be loaded by myself for consderably less...

Each aircraft in WW2 had its own mechanic assigned to it. This person was called the Crew Chief All guns would have been removed from the aircraft upon RTB (return to Base) They would have been a stock item, and replaced with fresh serviced and put into another aircraft in rotation...

I bet Rick Steves is loving this. His travel guides will sell even better If Frommer don't like it here he is free to pack his $hi& and leave.

While I 100% agree with you. There should be no need to inspect a firearm from a "quality" manufacturer. Did you have a opportunity to inspect it before you signed the papers? Most reputable dealers assuming they agreed there was a problem would allow you to reject it even if it were a special...

Im with you, I never saw the draw to them either AD
