New used gun porn.
My new used Bear protection for fishing trips to Wyoming and Montana. Model 29-8 Mountain Gun in 44mag with some fresh cast RCBS 44-250K bullets. Might have to get another 44mag lever gun to go with it. I sold my Rossi Puma years ago and now regretting it. The Henry big boy steel isn't lookin to bad.

Re: My bodies broke and worn out
I can relate guys, and I'm only 52. Severe scoliosis with arthritis and degenerative disk. Both shoulders shot and need replaced. The military still has not kicked me out because nobody wants to work in this day and age. Pretty much laid up this weekend with low back and hips hurting.

Cracks in the cap can be real fine and hard to see. May be on the sides or from tower to tower. When it warms some buy a new borg warner premium with solid brass terminals and see if that help next time.

Re: S.O.S.- Mayday- Help.
If it has a distributor cap it may be cracked and moisture may be the problem. Give it a good shot of ether/starting fluid Down the air intake. If it starts watch it run in the dark there may be a range war going on under the hood. That's my 2 cents.

It would need a flat spot to support a 150kg load the size of a ball point pin for a Rockwell C scale check. That will leave a small divot like a center punch provided it's even in the C scale range.
