The base pin does not look like a 2 position. It looks like the stock pin that is not fully seated up to the shoulder on the pin.

I am thinking I like the old world patina and the factory grips just work on this one.
Then what are you asking about?

Judah says he sent you a PM. Did you get it? I am sure he explained that the photo is the follower and it needs to be polished to remove roughness or the carrier sticks on it. There was a thread on this a few weeks ago.
P.S. The SASS search engine is terrible. Hopefully someone will be able to give you the link to the previous discussion.

The only person I know that has shot the factory fast load regularly is Judah Macabe. He has been using one for several years. Do a search for his name and send him a PM.

You are too hung up on the necessity for a short stroke. You are new and young. The short stroke will not suddenly make you a better shooter. That is down the road a bit. I picked up a new Ruger Marlin a month ago with the intent to do an article for the Chronicle. I picked it up for just a tad less than $1K. Shotgun Boogie lives close to me so I purchased his tune-up kit and installed it. The difference was beyond belief. I shot it in a two day match this weekend and it functioned perfectly and turned in some decent times. So for $1K and $100 dollars worth of speed parts you will have a gun that will last for decades and a lot of people use them quite successfully. Here is just one photo out of over a hundred that I shot showing the trigger group coming out of the gun to install some of the speed parts. In the photo you can see the screw shaped plug that replaces the safety button. Not necessary for speed but it looks nice.

Great news Trail Boss is finally available for sale again (in stock sitting on shelves) at many gun shops in Australia
Is it true there are only two?

I would go to YouTube and watch the 17 videos produced by Jim Finch AKA Longhunter. They average about ten minutes each. Watch them and observe the gear he uses and suggests.

This was recently discover in the Santa Cruz Valley in Arizona. It is a bronze cannon left by Coronado while searching for the Seven Cities of Gold in the 1530s.

As is typical with Bud Light, Disney and others, the Director of Jaguar defended the ad by attacking those who do not like it as being intolerant.
In a recent interview with the Financial Times, Jaguar Land Rover managing director Rawdon Glover defended the brand relaunch and denied the ad was meant to send a “woke” message.
While Glover praised the attention around the campaign as “very positive,” he said he was disappointed by the “level of vile hatred and intolerance” shown by social media commentators towards the models in the video.
He claimed the ad’s message had been lost “in a blaze of intolerance.”

Bud Light was not sinking. Just dumb leftist senior employees. Kinda like the senior vice president of Disney that claimed her two kids were gay and trans and that all Disney product would have some "queer" in it. Unfortunately it is not just sinking companies. Walmart tried it and they are not sinking. They just canned their DEI division.

I tried the pre-cooked stuff from the local grocery store. It was expensive. Then the wife of a friend told me to buy Costco pre-cooked. I did and it was great. You get at least five times as much bacon as the grocery store stuff for the same price.

Unless you have funneled the chambers for cowboy shooting. The unsupported portion of the base is what is causing the jam.
This makes no sense. Funneling is what causes unsupported portions of the chamber.

In case you are a car enthusiast and have not seen the new Jaguar ad here is a parody of the ad that shows some of the actual ad. No cars in the ad just weird people. Looks like the new CEO of Jaguar just sank the company.

The only ones I’ve used that are actually brass are Remington STS and Winchester AA.
Yep pretty much everyone has gone to or is going to the cheaper Reifenhauser style of shell construction. STS and AA are about the only game in town for brass heads and even the "Premium" Winchester AA Diamond Grade have steel heads. Federal use to make premium shells like the Gold Medal but they have also gone downhill. Since Federal and Remingtom ammo are owned by the same company Federal is now bringing Remington STS hulls dyed plum to the Federal plant and loading them as the Federal HOA. (High Over All.)

FYI those are brass washed STEEL heads. A lot of shotguns do not like cheap steel headed ammo. Sometimes you have to break them over your knee to get them open. It is a cheap $300 gun shooting cheap RIO shells. About par for the course.

It is a Dillon size SW powder funnel. The S next to it is what comes with the .32 H&R.

I never had any luck with that short funnel. This is what I use. I also had to trim about .060" off the sizers on several sets of .32-20 to set the shoulder back far enough to get them to feed in a variety of antique and modern .32-20s.

FYI the topic is the Single Six in .32. The .22s are still available and have always been cheaper.

I have three of the Mr. Bullet Feeders and have done a lot of experimenting with them. Once the bullets start getting very short they tend to have some problems. In this photo is a Miss Scarlett 125 on the left, an SNS 100 in the middle and a 105 truncated cone. The 125 is .500" long and feeds fine. The 100 is .460" long and three or four per hundred will be upside down. The 105 is longer but because of the very sharp nose it will have an occasional bullet feed upside down. I watch as the shells come out of the bullet feeding station and if the bullet is upside down I turn it over. I have not tried the 105 Miss Scarlet is presently selling but she notes it is .475" long. That may be enough for reliable feeding.

One thing you will need is the small spring bullet feeder tube. The short bullets can turn sideways and get stuck in the standard tube.
