  1. One day I was pulled over for 67 mph in a 55 mph zone .

    The Police Officer said if you can give me a excuse I I never heard before. 

    I will let you go with out a ticket. 

     

    I said Offer  .

    My wife ran off with a police officer and I thought you was trying to bring her back .

    So I was trying to out run you !

    Give him a call.

    I have tried to call him several times over a couple months. 

    I dont think he is manning his phone anymore. 

     

    The pin is just a solid pin .

    You could probably cut off a paper clip or anything about that size to make a pin .

    I sure as hell would not have paid to ship it both ways for that unnecessary pin .

    Worst case buy a cheap drill bit and cut it off and make your own pin .

  3. When im on the SASS Wire and I click on something , it goes right to it .

    If im in the Wire and click to look at things forsale it goes right to it.

    But if im anywhere and click Saloon  ?

    Its a Big Lag  before it goes to Saloon or when I click to go back out of the Saloon its a big lag again  ?

    Has anyone complained of this issue before  ?

    If so , What is the fix ?

    Thank you .

    I'M the poster Kid for PAM (Equal parts Hydrogen Peroxide - Denatured Alcohol & Murphy Oil Soap).  Same same as Wyatt Earp.  Except I suggest a rag of PAM to wipe down the cylinder face AND the Cylinder Pin.  The gun may still quit on ya.

     

    AND YES:

     

    Best bet for Black Powder in a Schofield an original.  The original had the correct length Cylinder and Cylinder Bushing.  S&W and Uberti ruined the Repos trying to include the 45 Colt to increase sales.  What a Crock.

    Im surprised for as long as you have been around and doing this type of shooting .

    You would touch anything with  hydrogen peroxide !

    ( hydrogen Rust peroxide )

    You can pour that stuff on a F250 at 8pm and by 8am it will disappear  lol 

    Too each there own .

    I will stick with Ballistal myself  lol

    I'm a little surprised this topic didn't generate more discussion, because it seems to me an interesting one.  My answer to the basic price query for "action jobs" would be $200 and up, because that's what I've found by searching the web.  But, is sending a new revolver out to a specialist for $200-$300 worth of work (plus shipping costs) becoming a less  common thing than in years past?  My guesses it might be would include all the how-to videos on Youtube lead more folks to DIY solutions.  Maybe the availability of excellent replacement spring kits?  Are the Uberti and/or Pietta products just a lot better than in the past?  More responsive warranty support?  Market saturation of already slicked up used guns?  Experienced local club members who can do good work?  A combination of all those?  I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts.

    If your just wanted lighter springs put in . ( poor mans action job) 

    You dont need to send it out .

     

    But if you need or want real gunsmith custom work done and parts tuning , filing on the trigger in sear , cutting down a barrel. 

     

    You would be smart to send it to someone who knows what they are doing. 

     

    IMHO Rooster 

     

  8. Wow ! 

    I have never heard of a screwless Colt .

    But now I want one too 😢

    Thanks  Pottifogger Now my Wife's  going to be mad at you too 🤣😂 

     

    I have several Colts , But they are just regular Colts .

    Not Special Colts like this one Hunny 🙄 

     

    How's that sound Pottifogger 🥶

    I had a hell of a time whin I started loading 44WCF

    ( as do many ) with crushing cartridges .

    Its a lot easier with the Lee Factory crimp die , Than it is with the regular seating crimping die .

    I have learned how to do it over the years with the three piece die set .

    But the four piece Factory crimp die made it much easier to stop crushing cartridges .

  10. I have been using APP for years now .

    I cast my own bullets and powder coat with Harbor Freight powder coat with a cheap counter top oven .

    Its the cheapest setup you can find and works great !

    I like the Winchester 9422XTR I got my son at Bass Pro about 22 years ago FOR $299 on sale!  Wish I had picked up one in .22mag too but money was tight back then. I have been looking at the Brownings recently as I believe they are very similar and cheaper than the Winchesters with “plain” wood instead of checkered. I saw that Winchester came out with a new .22 but have yet to see one in person, believe they are imported from Turkey but not sure. As anyone ever handled one of those??  Sorry forgot the name of them. 

    I too love my Winchester 9422LR I used to have the Winchester 9422M also .

    But I never shot it just because of cost difference in the ammo .

    The new Winchester is the Ranger .

    It looks nice but its made in Turkey. 

    Nothing wrong with Made in Turkey. 

    But we have very well built Made In America or Not Made at all Henry rifles right here .

    I bought all my Grandsons a Life Membership for the NRA & A Henry Repeating Arms rifle gor the day the was born .

    Then I bought them Ruger Wranglers to keep them out of my Single Six guns .

  12. I have spent Hundreds of Thousands with Snap-on over the last 40 years as a Technician. 

    Now that Im retired and have this great big toolbox full of tools in my garage that I have not opened in a couple years .

    Makes me think about how much money I have waisted over the years .

    Then again You got to have the best to get paid the best  ! 

    Them tools make you money when you are paid flat rate 

    You make money when this tool will save you time on that job .

    Time is money and money is time.

    Which primer is best for Black Powder rifles  using Swiss 1 1/2 in a 40-65 ?

    What ever primer you can find available is what I would go with .
