I've only been around here for a couple years and I haven't seen anything referring to a collection of your stories. Do you have book or collection of your writing that is available to us? I'd like to have some of your stories to read when I'm not playing Hi tech (surfing).

Thanks,
Mike

I returned to pistol shooting after a 3 year layoff (went boating). I noticed aiming was a bit harder and got 8" vertical groups at 50' from my SBH in 44 Mag! I realized I can't see the top of the front sight! Trifocals suck...

For my 44s I just use the Lee roll crimp die, with seating and crimping separate When using H110 or WC820 I use a heavy roll crimp. I have no COL issues with my Blackhawk or Puma so I just crimp in the groove when shooting 42944 or 429421 Lyman boolits from my molds. It's hard to say what exactly &q...

That is definately a two slobber rag article!

Does anyone have data from Ranchdog? When I bought my RD mold there was load data on his website, and I printed (and promptly lost) it. I too, have the 44 265 RD that I originally bought for my Puma 44 with oversize bore (.432"), and it shoots great from my Super Blackhawk too (sized to .430&qu...

I like the BB gun idea and perhaps you could harvest some venison with a Bow & Arrow? (I'm kinda ignert on this subject as we don't have any deer in our yards in Los angeles!)

Leverguns.com has become my go-to site every time I sit down at my computer. I'm very grateful that I'm allowed to sit in and occationally post to this forum of very knowledgable gentlemen from all over the world. My background isn't on par (firerms wise) with most of the people here and I gain a gr...

I was just cruising my regular gun related sites and found some primers for sale on Gunbroker. Great (not!). They were asking $65.00 per 1,000 for CCI primers! All sizes. I didn't bother to note the seller 'cause I'm not going to participate! I saw some localy for $30 and passed because I thought th...

Steve, maybe you could package those droppings and sell it as an "Exotic Wildlife Fertilizer"

Please excuse this city boy's ignorance, but where/what is this? A feeding area? An animal park?

I was looking at an on-line auction for a S&W Mod. 29. I noticed the shop selling it was near to my location here in LA County. The S&W was not for sale in CA! I emailed the seller and was answered back that that particular model (or series or ??) is not on the list! My Mod 629 is/was legal ...

I remember the first time I paid some one to do some thing that I "should" do. The brakes on my wife's car needed replacing, and being a mechanic for the last ??? years that job was mine (at least in my head!). I crawled around on the driveway and got the rear end up in the air, I then had...

I've wanted to get hold of (collect) old photos since I saw a pic of my grandad. He was sitting on the top rail of a corral taking a break from breaking horses, or so the story goes, and he was an honest-to-God cowboy. Rangerider, where do you find all these old photos?

Which University is that?

If I understand correctly, you're asking about muscle memory and training. I know the movements are different, but I'd say there is no different in learning/training. But then, one (the pump) is operated with the off/weak hand/arm while the other (lever) is operated by the strong hand/arm. Also the ...

I read the comments following the article. I saw a bunch of uninformed do gooders condemning this as "murder". Even I, a loooong time city boy know wolves are not house pets and when not controlled do great harm to livestock and game. There was a post on this forum a few weeks ago about wo...

Looks like those goats are in trouble!

Will this new ammo be available on line or through normal channels (Midway, Natchez, Missouth, etc.)?

I'd be iterested in knowing where to get that sight too. Might look kinda funny on a 20" bbl model though.

One of my first jobs long, long ago was in a machine shop where I was taught to simplify the machining processes as much as possible while retaining a quality product. Well, that's stuck with me and I have a habit of "simplifying" almost everything. When I started reloading, I approached i...

I believe "Helm" is a position rather than a thing. When "at the helm" you have control of the ship. You may be controlling the ship with a tiller or wheel while at the helm. Hydraulics, cables, and today electrical control (fly by wire) are what are used to "connect" t...

A while back people around here started putting "Locomotive Horns" in their cars/trucks. Really loud to get the "sonic invaders'" attention. Worked real good too, especially when you come up on an idiot doing 40-50 on the fwy talking on the phone (when everyone else is doing 65-8...

Driving in LA I get this sonic invasion daily. What I've been asking around is if there is some sort of signal generator I can build and install in my truck that would cause static/interferrance in the "boom-chicka-boom" moron's system. When they pull up next to me at a stop, I can flip a ...

There's a whole lot of people out there that just hate Lee products. I don't understand why. I have several pieces of Lee equipment from presses (2) to dies (3 sets) to bullet molds (4). Besides Lee I have C-H, RCBS, Lyman/Ideal, Pacific, and Herters. Of all that equipment the Lee products are most ...

Oh No! Leaving Chicago for Wyoming? What a sacrifice

Chuck,

Excellent idea!

I fully understand the above posts about the intimidation value of a fixed bayonet. But, a shotgun for sale at a Big 5, in California, I'm sure is aimed not at professionals or soldiers, but as I stated earlier to wannabees, IMO.

mikld

I think the "combat" additions are for looks only; to attract a certain buyer (mall ninja or psuedo-militia types). To some they (bayoneys, lasers, flashlights, red dot sights, etc.) look "cool". For a professional (security, LEO, etc.) all these gadgets probably have a use, but ...

I'd like to see a vest that doesn't leave a large gap between the bottom of the vest and your pants. One made for big guys, and in the USA.

On an earlier post I asked about the Mossberg 464 lever. Not planning on buying, just wanna know. Got some good info. So, I went to Guns America to look-see and noticed Mossberg arms are usually inexpensive. I've never owned one so what is the forum's general impression of Mossberg firearms? Where a...

I was looking through stuff on the back porch when I found an American Rifleman from Nov. '08. There's an article about the Mossberg 464 lever, and the impression from what is written is this is a pretty good rifle. But, I've read some storys/posts here about this gun as being no good, a junker, poo...

Real men eat it RAW (mmmmm meat!), or get someone ese to cook it! BTW, when I was doing a lot of shark fishing I would "plug" (just like plugging a watermelon) the shark just above the tail. If there was any oily or creosote taste I'd throw it back 'cause it had been around the harbor too ...

Great idea! I'd like some plain ol' home style MANLY cookin' recipes! Easy/Simple. One of the reasons I don't cook much anymore (besides the wife keeps me fed) is way too much preparation time and way too many ingredients! I like SIMPLE. Since I got sober I don't "create" gormet meals in t...

If you have an arbor press handy the hammering can be cut down quite a bit. The hardest part, the most hammering, is sizing (for me doing .44 mag.). An arbor press will just push the case into the die easily. I enjoy going "retro" once in a while and will load up some .44s. When hammering ...

Sounds interesting. I've got a single shot 30-30 (Handi Rifle) that I want to try some heavy bullets in. Saeco makes a .30 cal 180 gr. Flat Point Gas Check mold that I'd like to try if I can find load data for it.

If you had a couple hours free and wanted to shoot something, which one would you grab outta the safe first?

Ya shooting 38 or 357? My Lyman 48th has loads listed for .38 158 gr. jacketed and 2400 (starting at 8.4 gr.). Also listed is a .357 starting load of 11.3 of 2400. Jacketed vs plated? dunno
