Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933

That is what through me off when the question was first asked. Cut checkering is done by hand with a cutter. Taz missed EOT 2025 because he was having a heart transplant. Fortunately it looks like he will make EOT 2026. I have some checkering for him to do.

18.6834" Effective? Any shotgun at SASS ranges will be "effective." What is comfortable is personal preference.

Lots of USFAs (and all USPFAs) are Uberti parts guns including most of the China Camps.

Or Elmer Fudd.

Well, they paid up.

Half the teenage girls at the high school up the street have jeans that look worse than those.

I have a federal TSP account. (Thrift Savings Plan) I have gotten RMDs for several years. At the end of the year they do a reconciliation to make sure you were paid enough to avoid any penalties. This year I got a notice via email that a final distribution will be made and to look at my account data for an explanation. I know many people with various retirement accounts that sometimes wind up getting thousands of dollars at year's end. I have been car shopping to I looked to see how much I was getting. I have deleted all the account information but this is the body of the statement. My initial reaction was what a waste. Then I figured all of this stuff is done by computer so no big cost involved. I don't think the four cents will help my down payment much.😆

I wonder why? This is a screen shot of what I get.

Charles Middleton.

A quick AI search. This may or may not be the only Turkish manufacturer that makes Charles Daly.

Try to ID who in Turkey made the gun. Then either look at their website or another importer that has the same gun. The Turks are like the ChiComs and Italians. They make the same model gun for a bunch of different importers.

As long as it says in stock if you check on the order box it will be in Phoenix in a day or two and they will send you an email to pick the gun up. This is a huge store but the market is black guns so the cowboy stuff isn't always on the shelf.

TTN was simply the importer. Several companies have imported the same gun. Here is one from a local Phoenix store. https://tombstonetactical.com/product/cimarron-1878-coach-gun-12ga.-3-20-cylcyl-blued-walnut

6 to 8 hours. They are USB/USBC connectors so you can charge them pretty much anywhere.

I use to use one of these but the electric ones are much easier to use and control the heat. https://zippo.com/products/6-hour-refillable-hand-warmer

A friend just gave me a pair of these. They are not nearly as big as they appear in the photo. They are rechrageable and have three temperatue settings. https://www.amazon.com/OCOOPA-Rechargeable-Pocket-Sized-Handwarmers-Electronic/dp/B0CC189314/ref=sr_1_6?crid=HZ8H0U3Q9T5W&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.s21ml2L6wwtrzsTM3Zp1AMihl-yL7vP6ECl8IWMcmfVJL3XARG3nmV5Z8LmDlLRlwSf8sotQzbnExCrmvcMVUpvw2RYwXKs55IHptGf0cOIVsnSvlX2IxWx9p5176jXjo2TVvov3xhmEaqon1_jL65kbg4CT2LNOkfkYypC9LS31JkDsfON-qLVBs0KpX9dwcyClOYW0xAM9ch7_3A4iU1u47K4Z5fq_sppL43pEcTlSUoCNsQgdB5JL-58x5HoCQ6wHyaZmlLYuVmkGJYwdoi0fq6m3eoK8CIu33f_L-qM.1kEnvgRaaFSMIaCfO21YbMiajRwe-3QUDH2yyfe2sr4&dib_tag=se&keywords=ocoopa%2Bhand%2Bwarmers%2Brechargeable&qid=1765926454&sprefix=oc%2Caps%2C167&sr=8-6&th=1

If it was sitting on top of the barrel it would easily break off. So yes the sight is sitting in a slot.

What I have used on sights the past ten years or so is Green Loctite 648. It is made for smooth surfaces. Red is ideally for threaded fittings. https://www.amazon.com/Retaining-648-Cylindrical-Components-Assemblies/dp/B0CHWFVV2Q/ref=sr_1_5?crid=1II36CUBQPT6W&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.RWAuTebXlp6R1ehEwxw_6dKv5rWAs3m9qV6pspUKjMD11Fp-CaHkpBTBSNehtoRlFGkwWOTg625TTXn7-_yKjFK_h0_bt_rQFqZi0x9E-CacpPU7CM1JfaslpS-FHuoVHNRSoyWkpkJPWgMNcn7gos6lkGogtDf3q8gPUoxigFVfUB2Lsuq8XEm47mPCucvH-VE40p4cE3m8qAeyBeXIAhwzF3cKCq4OpCvdTR_YIns.jFuiNa_FBmYvM840aBvdGGA7xhDl7ZxewhiMZ70vYvg&dib_tag=se&keywords=green%2Bloctite&qid=1765669444&sprefix=green%2Bloc%2Caps%2C226&sr=8-5&th=1

Mine fell off at a shoot in Nevada. Stopped at an auto parts store and got some red lock tite. Figured if it held for the rest of the match I would do a permanent repair when I got home. Been on there for 12 years.

Is she the one in the red sweater? I see you are standing next to her ringing some bells.

No. I saw Bill English's phone number on a couple of sites. https://the-online-outpost-licensing-corporation.myshopify.com/pages/cowboy-45-special-carrier?srsltid=AfmBOoq2gOgqoo0ZGX27XFQgEOn0Br7ipqC_zN7OQrIMDqwTbC1gLq6k

The Smith Shop is closed but Longhunter still has these on his website. https://www.longhunt.com/storelh/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=456

Over the years I have watched a lot of westerns in the theatres and dozens of westerns on TV throughout the 50s and 60s and beyond and have never seen anyone wearing boots with a black spandex insert in the side. I do think I will go down to Boot Barn and see if they have any. No one has looked at my feet in years.

You can go over to one of the trap websites such as https://www.trapshooters.com and look for some comments on the Tri Stars. (Most of which are bad.) Many trap shooters shoot thousands of rounds per year. The Tri Star will not hold up to any kind of intensive shooting. The best single barrel entry trap gun is the Browning BT99. If you are thinking about shooting doubles the Browning Citori CX series is a good entry level gun.
