I was there until 1030 today, met BigBore45 purely by chance, and took home a 336 RC "Texan" in 35 Rem for $300, and a couple NIW Beretta 8045 mags for my 45 ACP Cougar.

Sorry I missed you, Jack!

Had almost the same problem with an early production Winchester 94BB in 375 back in the early 80s. A friend sold me the rifle really cheap ($200) because it patterned, he said. Sure enough, he wasn't kidding. I ended up stripping off the magazine tube, forend, band, etc. The group shrunk from 10-12&...

the car is a 1986 Volvo 740 . . . One thing about older Volvos that use the pointy-ended European fuses with plastic bodies and aluminum elements -- the aluminum corrodes against the brass clips that hold the fuse in the fuse block. This causes resistance to climb in the corroded joints, and thus h...

You always need two cameras. One on the game's level and one up high on your first camera. Put it where it can't be taken down. If it is seen the perpetrator might shoot it but they can't get it. Also, put a discreet camera by your gate or trailhead that is the easy entry and exit way. Great advice...

Somebody can have mine. Winchester M1s are IMO not as desirable as SA or HRA flavors of M1 Rifle because Winchester did not pay as close attention to fit and finish. Winchester M1 are generally significantly rougher in appearance w.r.t. tool marks, etc., than SA and HRA guns. The Winchester name has...

I don't mean this to sound snarky, but would you would feel better if Lyman had told you the screw was $5.00, and shipping was free?

Wallboard compound shrinks when it dries and you can expect to make several "coats" to build thickness. Also, keep things fairly clean and dust-free by "wet sanding" with a moist cellulose sponge. The sponge rewets the wallboard compound and smooths it out without much of the dus...

The sentiment is understandable since we've become more Stalinesque: 1. Allow problems to go unaddressed, creating a public desperate for 'solutions'. 1a. Keep the public distracted from real government malfeasance and non-performance issues by means of overblown and hyper-dramatized "crises,&...

. . . The dimmer uses a bi-directional solid-state switching device called a TRIAC to control the power to the lamp . . . This type of power control is called duty cycle control , and lamp dimmers have been made on this principle since the 1960s. Modern US and Canadian and probably European dimmers...

Conventional dimmer switches for incandescent lamps are variable resistors. When the dimmer is adjusted "high," there is little or no resistance in the circuit and the lamp burns bright. When the dimmer is adjusted to dim the lamp, it does so by increasing the electrical resistance in the ...

. . . it isn't to your benefit to put off the buyer. Be factual, admit to ignorance about things about the gun of which you are ignorant.
