Re: Winchester 9410 shotgun loading problem
I think it could be a combined problem of a strong magazine tube spring and the blunt ends of the 410 shell

Re: Greyhound Bus and gun carrying...
I remember years ago when I was a kid and didn’t have a drivers license I d take the bus out to the country to go rabbit hunting.My gun was all folded up in a back pack and I thought nobody knew what I was doing until one day in the way back home the bus driver quietly asked me if I got any rabbits....

Re: The problem with the 'Obama revelations...'
The “Ends justify the means “ has always been the rally cry of Zealots,terrorists and the like.Having an attitude like that helps you step around things like the truth,common sense and the law that seem to get in one’s way and also easy your conscience when doing something you know is wrong

Re: Grail gun 1895 SRC
I bought one of the climbing Lyman 21 Providence replica sights for my Miroku 95 carbine but because it s already drilled and tapped for a receiver sight I ll probably put it on my browning 1886 rifle when my eyesight starts to go.Also I don t want to remove the saddle ring to put the sight on as well

Re: This would be fun to play with
Yup uses a paper cartridge with a felt wad attached on the rear of the cartridge.Something like the monkey tail Westley Richards cartridge.Basically when fired the greased wad is forced through the bore by the second round greases and helps keep fouling down.Plus the wad helps seal the bore
