    The "BABY BEAST" says: "Happy New Year to you all". See ya in 2024

    Nothing too exciting... I sailed over to do the Fastnet Race in 2009, and since guns are tightly regulated in the UK and since the barrel is considered the S/N part there, I replaced the barrel when I got back to the States. We sailed by a Portuguese Man-o-War jellyfish every 10-15 minutes, so...

    The "BABY BEAST" says: "Happy New Year to you all". See ya in 2024

    It's finished... I used Laurel Mountain barrel brown, whereas the top gun is blued. That is it's second barrel, the first was browned, but now resides at the bottom of the English Channel after a sailing trip across the Atlantic.

    Chopped one back when the kits cost half of what they do now.

    How does one go about picking a lawyer for a self defense situation?

    I can't speak for a defense lawyer, but when I needed a divorce attorney I went to the local Court and asked the clerk who was the best / most winningest.

    How would you go about buying a British shotgun?

    Galazan's guns are beauties, I pass their shop frequently... but can't justify the expense. Take a look at Griffin & Howe as well.

    Ithaca 37 Heat Shield

    I don't know where you'd find the correct Ithaca part, but Sarco's Winchester 97 is close. https://www.sarcoinc.com/winchester-97-trench-gun-bayonet-lug-heat-shield-with-screws/

    Russian Saiga 308-1

    This is an old picture, but fun. This is the OEM magazine, but CSpecs makes a good steel 20 rounder.

    How I move my safe

    Last time I moved I used about 2000 BB’s. Then a magnet to pick them all up.

    Anyone ever have a dog afraid of guns?

    Did you get the dog as a pup? The dog in my avatar pic was a rescue; she would cower and tremble if anyone took out a broom, and avoided basements like the plague. I got her young, but someone left a lifelong lasting impression on her.

    Jungle carbine with round back of bolt fitting?

    To verify authenticity check the barrel for lightening cuts. The worst recoil I’ve ever had in a milsurp was a No. 5 with a petrified rubber butt pad. The rounded part focused the recoil… making it a literal bruiser.

    New to Flintlocks

    ...just don't try to prime a flintlock with Pyrodex... talk about an exercise in futility!

    Pietta revolvers.

    That’s dicey. It’s preCNC, so don’t expect a good fit up. I’d probably just shoot it until it’s stretched.

    Twist on Airplane Travel Question- Flare Pistol

    Website Commando Archie, Is that snark? I’m a “website commando” who paid thousands of dollars to go on a dream hunt; and the TSA goon who called me back to security to open my rifle case for him fondled my rifle while “inspecting” it, fumbled the floor plate latch open, dropping the rifle on...

    Twist on Airplane Travel Question- Flare Pistol

    Do you really think TSA goons will know the difference? It’s either a Glock or an AK. that being said, FedEx it to yourself and save the potential hassle.

    Frankenstarr's Monster! (A Starr prop gun of some sort...)

    Is there a flag that says BANG in the barrel?

    AR47 build vs AK from the get go

    7.62x39 AR's have less meat on the bolt head than a standard bolt head; as I learned when my gun jammed on one of the busted lugs. With a 7.62x39 AR, depending on what you're using it for, the 5- and 10 rd mags work fine, but if you want 20 or 30-rds, I'd recommend C-Products mags. However, the...

    Converting a M-70 (M-99) to .410 shotgun

    I picked up the gun for a song, at the time it was less than a bare action. The gun was made by MRC, but marketed as a CZ, and being lefty it didn't improve it's marketability. The shopkeep was happy to see it finally go out the door. What do you guys think the .410 barrel and install would...
