My thanks as well to all the club members for making Land Run the great shoot it is. I agree Land Run keeps getting better each year. Thank you! Doc Hurd

Thanks Widder!

Thanks everyone!

I don’t think it was Widder. He did the complete rifle hence the Widdermatic. What I remembered was someone that fixed just the carrier. I’m thinking he was in Michigan.

I remember someone on the SASS wire that came highly recommended to repair MarlIN carriers in such a way that you no longer needed to worry about the MarlIN jam does anyone remember who this was and who could help me out with their name or a contact number? Thanks

Larry Crowe a gunsmith here in Missouri used to convert old model vaqueros to 38/40. He has done several, but I'm not sure if he still does this. I have not seen him in a long time.

Hi are you the cowboy that makes the nice wooden gun carts that are small and come apart easy? I think some of the local guys have them like Missouri Traveler. If so how much are they?
Thanks,
Doc Hurd

Doc
Yes I am. The gun was only used for a short time by my wife
"TWO PONIES GAL" who wanted a rifle to match her pistols Caliber.
I soon switched her off of that because I got tired of making too many bullets of different calibers. and the gun has been in the safe for some years now.
She no longer shoots due to maculer degeneration with her sight.
She was Alabama State Champion for many years prior to 2018.

Doc, I have a pair of the 44 Specials SS 4 5/8" I purchased them in 2012 and shot them a couple years at SASS matches. Had Brisco kid change to Blackhawk hammers/springs and changed to the black checkered grips. These are used but real nice condition. They have been in the safe for last couple years and thinking to down size gun collection.

Universal Powder in .45 Colt Questions
Doc Hurd #12379 replied to Pat Riot, SASS #13748's topic in SASS Wire
I've used universal clays in the past. I could not get a load that would work for me without having unburnt flakes. I like unique or red dot much better. -
large brass replacment bead for 73 front sight
Doc Hurd #12379 replied to cajun bandit's topic in SASS Wire
I actually made a large bead for my rifle site last night. I took a .175 shotgun bead, chucked it into my dremel tool and turned it down with a small file. I turned it down just enough that it was a snug fit and pressed it into my Marbles sight. First I just pulled out the small bead that Marbles used. Pretty easy and cheap to do.
