I just spoke with John Linebaugh. He has cut his schedule back some. These are Seminars he will be holding this year. To attend, the price is $200. Bring LOTS of guns and ammo! These are Hands On Seminars. They are not just about big-bore pistols. There are lots of leverguns, bolt guns and other ty...

I stole this from Simply Rugged's Rob on another forum... Kim Du Toit is spot on (again) about War Movies: "...The premise of Stop-Loss is that a kid comes home, is promised that he wonâ€™t have to go back to Iraq, and then is told that circumstances have changed, and he has to go back again an...

Miss Twyla and I pulled into Clarkville, AR last night about 7:30PM. Visited with Tom Richardson and many others at Tom's house till around 11 last night. Today we spent the day at the range. Musta been a hundred people here. All kinds of guns and ammo. The firing line was busy all day long. We talk...

The last thing I remembered was going into the bar in Shanghai. When I woke up, here I was!

Last year I took a rifle and a handgun. Several of the guys brought 2 rifles and a couple brought 2 rifles and a handgun.

USE THE SERVICES OF AIR2000! They make the paperwork and importing easy!

Most of the shots you can get for free at your local County Health Clinic.

Winchester Model 1886 First cartridges included the .45-70, .45-90 WCF and .40-82 WCF. The .40-65 WCF, .38-56 WCF and .50-110 WCF were added in 1887, followed by the .40-70 and .38-70 in 1894, the .50-100-450 in 1895 and the .33 WCF in 1903. Bottlenecked case similar to the 38-70. 330 gr. bullet @ 1...

Thank you, 86er for the price updates. This may sound stupid, but I have got to ask. Are any vacinations required before you go to Africa? I am asking because it just seems like I remember reading about that, sometime in the past. Also, do most people take only one gun, or do you sometimes take two...

JimT

86'r can speak about Mike's hand better than I. When I was with him he seemed to be doing well with it. He told me - and showed me - that it was working OK .. no feeling in parts of it and some fingers but he was recovering.

I'd like to be FIT enough to FINISH well.

JimT

Don't put it off. If you keep delaying it you will never go. This year it's this, next year it's that. One day you wake up and you are sucking on an oxygen bottle and somone is changing your diaper.

Re-arrange your priorities and do it while you can.

You will not regret it.

JimT

There is legislation up right now to extend the CCW expiration date to 6 years. You might encourage your legislators to go with this one.

JimT

JFPO .. yes. Thank you. They publish quite a few things other organizations won't. I remember they had a huge billboards with that message ..DIAL 911 AND DIE put up around various cities at one time. They got a lot of flak over it. None of them disparange 911 or the service that it is. They just tel...

JimT

Someone should do a study on how many people were killed during or after calling 911, but before the police arrived. Then do a cover story in Time. One of the gun rights organizations has done something like that .. it's a book called "DIAL 911 AND DIE". I will have to look for it. EDIT -...

The thread about primer indications of pressure made me dig out some of the old stuff. http://www.leverguns.com/web/primer1.jpg Which cartridge had the highest pressures? http://www.leverguns.com/web/primer2.jpg The one on the left was a factory 210 gr. load fired in a .44 Magnum. The middle one was...

JimT

If primer flow is not a pressure sign does that make it safe to ignore it?, or what should I do about it? IF it is not locking the gun up or making it hard to rotate the cylinder, and IF the loads are well under Maximum, and IF it is not noticable unless one happens to look closely at the primers ....

JimT

In my case, it's the gun. I look at it as normal for it. I get really deep primer strikes and a little flow on any spicy load that flattens the primers. 110, 296, 2400, Lil'gun.... The same loads do not flow in other guns. I could probably stone the pin a little and peen the firing pin hole, but I'...

JimT

THANK YOU Joe!! That was great.

JimT

Primers are a VERY POOR indicator of excessive pressure. It is common to have "primer flow" when other conditions exist. It does not necessarily indicate high pressures. If you look at the primers from cartridges that blew guns apart, often the primer looks normal. Starting in the 1930's L...

At CSA I will be bringing the Marlin Model 94 .32-20 that I have remodeled and worked over. It has the one-peice firing pin as well as the Ludwig croos-bolt safety replacement ... and some other tricks. I have plenty of ammo. The gun will be there for anyone to shoot who wants to.

AK Church dropped by the ranch this morning. He had an interesting old shotgun with him, a Stevens Model 315. He used this very gun to stop a vicious attack by a Red Squirrel and reported that it worked quite well. He donated the gun to the Mission to Mozambique. I will have it with me at CSA and w...

AGREED!

My opinion .. http://theanswerorg.wordpress.com

JimT

I have seen old 22 rifles with 2 or 3 rings in them. Often they shot quite well, especially if any ring was not near the muzzle.

JimT

I think tom Horn got convicted of shooting with a 45/90 and he said that the shot that he was convicted of could not have been made And there is a good chance that the 30/30 wasn't even in exisstance then! bob :) Sorry Bobbyjack .. You are mistaken on all counts. The .30-30 had been manufactured fo...

JimT

..... hopefully the intimidation factor of the shotgun comes into play and you never need to actually pull the trigger.... ~Michael The "intimidation factor" as you put will either work with any firearm or with none. If a person isn't intimidated when you pull a .22 pistol they won't be w...

Ji - Does Hawaii have a "castle doctrine" law? If not you guys need to start working on your legislators. As I posted, if that is in place, and if you have a case of justifiable use of force, there are no worries about lawsuits. As I have said before also, if a person is worried about laws...

As far as no one ever being prosecuted or had selection of ammunition or use of reloads being used against them in a court trial; I was able to find ref. to New Jearsy vs. Daniel N. Bias. Daniel Bias's case was a suicide. He reported that his wife shot herself with his gun. He had it loaded with ha...

Jim, I don't think the fear is from a DA, but from a jury in a civil case after the DA refuses to charge you......(that, BTW, should be a crime in itself, that double jeprody BS of a civil suit when there is no legal guilt :evil: ) I am sure you are correct. And that is why everyone needs to get th...

I am surprised that so many on here, disagree with this, as it has been taught extensively in classes on lethal defense for over twenty years. I remember back in the 70's and before when people like Bill Jorden used to advise people on handloads for self defense, and back then it was common practic...

Any round - shotgun or otherwise - that is effective at stopping an assailant will not be slowed down much by sheetrock. If you have never set up sheetrock and fired into it you really need to do so .. with a number of different types of guns and ammo. #6 or #8 shot will still go completely through,...

To answer the question that started this thread: Use whatever is the most reliable in your firearm. Accuracy, power, and all those other things are useless if you cannot rely on the gun to function properly each time it is fired and the action cycled. Questions of overpenetration are fine for discus...

I will bring my Marlin to the CSA and anyone who cares to shoot it may do so.

I have been hunting with revolvers since the early 1960's. Now - late in life

- I am learning to shoot a scoped rifle!

But I still like to hunt with a sixgun.

JimT

Now boys .. if you have never tried one all you can do is guess. I have tried them and compared them and yes, they DO make the action noticably smoother. But ... they are designed for CAS .. for "race" guns... I would NOT use them for hunting or self-defense guns. As has been stated, the ...
