  1. I took the new Cimarron apart and cleaned out the little bit of grit inside, stoned the inside walls, and polished the wear points and now it is even smoother.
  2. It is fairly smooth stock, but I did take it apart and found a fair amount of grit. I cleaned it out and did some minor polishing on the wear points and after reassembly, there was a noticeable improvement.
  3. If you are not dead set on the Walker, a 3rd Model Dragoon is a little more refined version of the Walker with almost all the boom. If you really need all the boom, a Walker cylinder can be fitted on a Dragoon by a machinist.
  4. Assuming the aluminum receiver will hold up and it will feed 38 specials, it looks like a good entry level CAS rifle. I would get the "brass" one and cerekote the metal a gloss black color.
  5. Does anyone know anything about the new Badlander by Heritage? I didn't know anything about it until I was browsing their website.: https://heritagemfg.com/shotguns/badlander-series/421-badlander-18-5inch-barrel-12ga-2rds
  6. It is a fine shotgun. I just got done polishing the internals, shorting the stock, adding a rubber but pad, checkering the hammer, and installing a leather wrap on the lever. But really it ran great right out of the box!
  7. Dang it, I dropped a saw on the back of it! I guess I'll have to make the LOP shorter.
  8. Okay, curiosity got to me. I measured all my various shells and other than some oddball Wolf brand, Winchester AA has the shortest OAL of my 2 3/4" shells. I also figured out how to safely unload the tube without clambering a shell so I could test live ammo. It would not load 6 AA's in the tube/ carrier . So if you roll your own keep your OAL under 2.200". I was able to get a total of 6 with combination of 4 AA's and 2 Kent brand 2 1/2" shells.
  9. You might be right, that is why I included the OAL on those shells. I didn't realize those dummies where a little short. I also didn't have time to measure other shells and didn't want to load live rounds in it last night. I'll investigate it more this weekend.
  10. Here is this particular stock gun with these particular (maybe short?)dummy shells with 6 in the tube/ carrier.
  11. I'll double check, but the one I played with will hold 6 in the tube/ carrier with the action closed and will hold 7 total if you loaded one in the chamber.
  12. I got to play with one this weekend as well. The one I had would hold 6 in the tube/ carrier. I agree with Duece, it seems like a great gun.
