And, you can change targets from your shooting position!

Great ideas guys! Thanks for the explanations and alternatives! "Frame-Mount", eh? I will look into that! I won't be beating up the reddot with that approach either. Sounds good! :) John

Thanks rcmodel- I'll try the 8-40 screws again, and heavy on the BlackMax. Gotta ask- Why aren't lockwashers used?

Reddot rail keeps loosening up. It was drilled and tapped for a Clark rail to hold a reddot, but the 8X40 threads are "buggered". Tried chasing the threads and added locktite, but a few hundred rounds later, loosened again. Is going to a 10X32 capscrew a viable option? And lockwashers, and...

Interesting. I'm going to try that on a .22 cal Clark barrel that I just put on my S&W Model 41. It's been giving fail-to-eject especially with a cold barrel. Clark says to lube the top bullet in every other magazine with FP-10. Although oiling bullets is inconvenient, it does work. Not having...

Yikes! That's what I've been missing! DUH indeed! :banghead:Thanks guys!

Question: Why is an extractor needed, for example, in a S & W Model 41, when the spent brass is blasting back the slide anyway? Isn't the pressure pulse driving the brass into the face of the slide, pushing the slide back, meaning the brass is self-ejecting anyway? Why an extractor claw is...

I was a beginning Bullseye shooter last year- 240 average. Right-handed/right eyed. Right shoulder was getting painful, and finally an MRI confirmed a 2.5 cm cuff tear. Sawbones said, "Get it fixed, or it'll get worse-to the point of immobility possibly"! I'm a healthy 63, and never had any...

Home Depot- Drywall plastic anchors, Size Screw 4-6, 7/8" work fine. 100 for about $3. Usually work well in a Browning pistol magazine too!

Sad gun theft story- Back in '89, my older brother saw I was developing an interest in guns, so he gave me our late Dad's rifles. A Japanese long rifle, an M1, and a 30-06 carbine. I was proud of my new collection, and the boys at work were dying to see them. I had just got my '87 Fiero GT out...

Another 917V lover here. Added a Rifle-Basix trigger, and a Barska 9-20X. When calm, 5 rounds easily fit in an inch circle at 200 yds, benched. Trick is to sense and adjust for the ever present wind. It's a nice repeatable flat shooter, but all a windage game with the tiny BB-size round. John

New guy here. Love the site! I pack: Bugspray rifle and pistol(s) ammo spotting scope handtools surveyors tape (for wind) 2 sets earmuffs camera And, of course: TARBOT :) John
