  1. Once upon a time I had to replace one of those on a Uberti that was even older than that. probably 1998 or so. Anyway, not knowing any better, I went to the local well stocked hardware store. I took the hammer with me and find the next larger size split roll pin. I clearanced the hole in the firing pin to be sure the roll pin didn't bind on it, then used the proper drill on the hammer. When the pin is tapped home it holds tight to the two sides of the hammer, allowing the FP to pivot as it should.

    Very interesting. In looking at the rule book, the only thing I see that would possibly be against it is the calibre. I agree that using 44 mag would seem to let it in. I would not oppose it's use were I to be the MD where the question was raised. As for whether it is "competitive" I seriously doubt that anyone would chose this design to attempt to be more "competitive". Sometimes folks still do thing simply because they are fun.

  3. Thanks yall. We are planning for a great weekend. Just put down 15 end dump truck loads 750,000lbs. of 2" gravel in the out of town parking and repaired the Alamo. We have planned to work on the Orphanage,,,{Anvil Al's old stage} just don't have a clue on what to build????? If anyone would like to adopt the Orphanage stage #8 it's yours!!!!! thanks T-Bone

     

    What was wrong with the Alamo? I don't recall an orphanage??????

  4. Me. :D I had quit shooting in about 1978, moving on to fishing and then flying model airplanes. I met a man that lived at the north end of Lake Ray Roberts on 40 acres. He invited a bunch of us up to fly in his pasture, shoot some skeet and plink at cans. I still had a Savage 311 in 20 gauge, so took that along. This was early 1998. It rekindled my desire to shoot, so began looking around for things to buy because I am seriously effected with GASS. Picked up a 3 Screw in 357, then found a deal on a Hawes 357 in pawn shop. Started looking around on the web and found this thing called Cowboy Action shooting. I studied it for a couple of days and saw that it was possible to shoot every weekend in the North Texas area, so figured I'd give it a try. Picked up two rifles in the mean time, a Rossi and a Marlin, both in 357. Went to Comanche Valley Vigilantes match in March of 1998 and had a whale of a time. Been shooting it every since. By the way, those used prices on my stuff in 1998 (IIRC)?

     

    3 Screw, 6 1/2 inch barrel, $250

    Hawes 6/12 inch, $125

    Savage 311 20 gauge, $175

    Rossi 357 carbine, $200

    Marlin 357 carbine, $225

  5. We have a kitchen available for both clubs that share our range. There is someone that cooks/provides food for each club on Saturday and Sunday. They provide everything, and collect the money for themselves. Usually about $5.00 for a plate, hamburger, pulled pork, shepards pie, tacos, something along those lines. Obviously only one choice per weekend. These are served and we have picnic tables available under a covered awning while waiting for the scores/awards.
