Primers at pre-COVID prices — it’s real.
Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 replied to Cholla's topic in SASS Wire
In all honesty that had to have been an error in your favor. Locally at Sportsman's they are $58. Remingtons were more than $28 pre-covid. -

That is only because he has figured out you know how to work the can opener. -
Cimarron Thunderer primers backing out
Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 replied to Cockney Rebel's topic in SASS Wire
You simply do NOT have enought pressure. When you fire a gun the primer pokes out and then when pressure builds up in the shell it pushes against the recoil shield and reseats the primers. If you want to shoot BP blanks the standard fix is to drill out the flash hole to a larger size. This is NOT something that needs to go to Cimarron for repair. Once you have drilled out the primer flash holes keep them separate from your other brass as they are no longer safe for full pressure loads.- 11 replies

Uberti 1873 Rifle firing pin extension sticking?
Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 replied to PewPew's topic in SASS Wire
The first thing to do is to put an EMPTY DEPRIMED case into the chamber and then check the extension's movement. They often stick when the bolt is closed on an empty chamber because the front of the bolt is lifted by the extractor and this binds the extension. -

It would be useful to post a link or a photo so we know what you are talking about. -
After a month straight of 110+ degree days I decided to make the trek to the Western Regional. When I left Phoenix it was 113 and by the time I got to I-10 it was 116. I got to Morro Bay about 2:00 in the afternoon the next day and it was sunny and 58! It stayed in the mid-60s at Morro Bay and got up to maybe 70 degrees at the range which is about five mles inland from the bay. When they tell you the weather is sunny and 70 they mean it. Looking out the window of a restaurant at Morro Bay's big rock. Inside I am having filet migon and lobster. (No I did NOT use the A1 that was sitting on the table.) Walking down the pier a crabber is unloading the day's catch. Down the wharf a ways a pirate ship was docked for the night. And a sea otter was playing by the ship. Oh, I hear there was a shoot going on a few miles down the road. For photos of the stages look at the Chorro Valley website. It was great seeing SInful, El Lazo, Snakebite, Roger Rapid, Yul Lose and others that I only get to see infrequently these days.

How many times have you heard that someone is being charged with lying to the FBI? In many cases they are not charged with the crime the FBI was investigating they are charged because they lied during an interview. The same with the 4473. When people get busted for a gun crime they pull the 4473 to see if the person lied on the form. So in addition to the charge for the crime they are also charged with lying on the form. Sometimes the only thing they get convicted for is the lie on the form. Remember in the good old days of Al Capone and Elliott Ness many mobsters were never convicted of murder or any other violent crime. They were convicted for income tax evasion or lying on their tax forms. Now what can be done and what is done are two different things. There are only around 300 prosecutions for lying on the 4473 per year which is statistically insignificat.

New Hammers for New Vaqueros
Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 replied to Wild Hair Larry's topic in SASS Wire
Left to right. Vaquero, New Vaquero, SBH/Montado, Bisley. The SBH/Montado have the same profile the difference being the Montado has cast in checkering and the SBH has grooves. The hammer in the photo is a Montado. Look at the upper right hand hole in the Vaquero and New Vaquero hammers. Notice the wall thickness on the outside of the hole. Tne New Vaquero hammer is thicker than a Vaquero hammer. Because the New Vaquero hammer is thicker the hammer slot in the gripframe has been deepened/lengthened. Red arrow. As a consequence the Vaquero gripframe has enough clearance so a SBH/Montado hammer will fit in most Vaqueros. The New Vaquero has enough clearance so that a Bisley hammer will fit in most New Vaquero gripframes. To fit a Bisley hammer in a Vaquero requires deepening the slot in the gripframe and/or grinding the hump off the back of the hammer. -
