Rimfire rifle and handgun have become my favorite as of late. Try to shoot every week. It would be hard for me to beat my Savage model 29 and 29B ,cheap no frills but they are deadly accurate. The 29B holds to this day my best offhand standing group . 20 yards offhand standing. The 1929 sitting with...

Ranger got bumped to late 24-25

Pat C

Funny fellers,

Pat C

Never had any ,what's it taste like?

Pat C

Leather would be hard to beat but more difficult to form the protruding boss. Probably wet form it with die over saddle Leather.

Been having a good bit of FTF out of my Browning Buck Mark. Folks on Rimfire central lead me in right direction . Took it apart found the buffer was destroyed . #1 cause of FTF on these apparently. Ordered two new factory replacements but may make one out of high impact resin used in hydraulic hamme...

The angle was just on the front portion on either side of hammer slot.

Pat C

So the pre-war tang had 20º angles on the sides, and the inlet in the stock had a matching 20º angle, like a dovetail. And post-war, the sides of the tang were 90º and had a matching inlet in the stock? Exactly , this was a major change to the receiver as it was easier to produce ,more durable , no...

That's why I live on a mountain top.

Me too, about two three days in the flat lands and I'm done and heading home to the mountains.

Pat C

I prefer the high ground myself

Pat C

There are four or five currently on ebay for $20-$23 , one even has reloading manual with it for $23.

Pat C

Just snagged a like new 1996 copy for $10.95 on ebay

Pat C

The change also devoid of tang peep sight hole and Winchester trademark

Pat C

And the post war tang

Pat C

Somebody asked on anouther site ,sure most know the main differences. But here were a few pics I took of the main change. Pre war up through 1.4 mil + the model 94 receiver tang fit into a mortised inlet where wood met metal. Sides were tapered about 20 degrees. Somewhat fragile area. Post war recei...

I have a 67 same time period 2nd variation I guess you would say.Belonged to my Father n laws Grandad.

Pat C

Four hours of mowing ,two hours weed eating ,wore out .Went inside grabbed trusty 29B offhand at 25 yards ,10 shots. Just can't beat them.

Pat C

Nice rifles but only one thing missing , some targets showing how well they do!

Pat C

Nice ,reminds me of bow making.

Pat C

Very nice, quite a unique piece.

Pat C

Nice , I see the ledger states 2" longer stock with 1" more drop. Appears to have Lyman patent bead front sight .
1 pound heavier barrel .

I wonder what was done when returned to factory?
Almost wonder if barrel was shortened to reduce weight ?
May have been heavier than expected.

Pat C

Certainly an unusual configuration , I guess I missed it no mention of barrel length ?

Pat C

Hang in there , don't know what ales you but hopefully some help is around the corner. I'll say a prayer for you.I think you have made a pretty good impact as seen here in these responses.

Pat C

I thought any gun was parlor gun as long as it had a maxim Silencer

Pat C

Looks like a Flobert round to me.

Pat C

Sorry for your loss , time will heal .

Pat C

Sorry to here this. ,lost mine of 17 years last February .Just like family.

Pretty bad storm ,you had a guardian angel watching out.
These weird storms are the norm now unfortunately.

Pat C

I'd like to find an old beater Blackhawk for custom sixgun.

Pat C

I really like the short barreled sixguns ,that would be take only in 38 WCF. to go with my 1892 short rifle.

Pat C

Never seen these imports before. Will have to check them out.

Pat C

Looks like a shooter

Pat C

A short barreled 38 WCF old model with bone charcoal frame,hammer gate. On the list of to do's.

Pat C

The 552 has standard chamber , it's the 550-1 that has floating chamber.

This rifle was Dad's , 1982 . Had never been all the way down until last year I did a major clean up .

Pat C

The dirtiest shooting rifle ever made is also very accurate.
Finally found what this old rifle likes Norma Tac 22
1 1/2" group standing offhand

Pat C

Sounds like someone tried to drive it straight out. They are radial dovetails. You pull tube part way out and use tube as a turning aid. To rotate out.

Round barrels are worst for wear to dovetail ,once damaged going oversize and or tig welding is about all you can do.

Pat C

I get bogus emails all the time that say , thanks for your purchase here is your PP invoice. With a link .

Pat C

I really like the black checkered original grips I think I may try to find me a shooter this year sometime.

Pat C

Some of the old Iver Johnson adds

Pat C

Answered my own question ,NO black powder cartridge does not leave burn rings around chambers. At least not Pyrodex.

Pat C

Found four slugs

Pat C

All rounds went through wood target backing and hit 1" thick rubber con Conveyor backing. I found one lying below. I'll look for others later.

Pat C

That was six o'clock hold at 15 ,shoots really high to sights.

Pat C

Pulled bullets and loaded 5 test rounds , filled case with Pyrodex RS to within 3/16 .Just enough for light compression. Had to make a crimp tool as I don't reload. Bored hole in R6 cable crimper. To .380 with .375 at edge. Worked perfect. Eyeballed the loads but as you see shot excellent 15 yards h...

Pat C

Yeah has that nice plum frame blue .People complained about it originally so much Ruger put a notice out .They would attempt to reblue but no guarantees it would be better. Blaming it on tge 4140 casting.Today people go nuts over the color.

Pat C

Yeah ,I like it a lot . One of these days stars will align and I'll own one.
