    I like this idea for starters also.  Maybe just drop of any oil on firing pins for a quick try.  You might be surprised.

    a bit of oil can work wonders ,

    Originally submarines were smaller, conducted shallow-water/littoral ops, and were only manned when underway (e.g., Bushnell's Turtle, CSS Hunley, et al.)-- hence, they were called boats. Even after submarines became deep-water, permanently manned ships, the term 'boats' stuck.

     

    ETA: The U.S. Navy. Sometimes it's centuries of tradition unimpaired by progress.

    yes , my FIL explained some of that as well , he was a lifer , first crew of the nautilus 

  4. OK , a boat can fit in a ship ,  ill buy that , but still begs the question in the end , im an inland water guy and i use boat but i know im wrong in some cases by the words of my deceased FIL who was a submariner and knew his boats and ships larger than my boat 

  5. there have been a lot of crossovers over the years - the silver fox thought he was a rock and roll guy once with "what condition my condition was in" but far better as country , the stoned poney had linda ronstadt as a singer before she turned country , and there was the eagles and a few others that did so well in both arenas

  6. repeating the "well bye" from above , 

     

    he got a pass from those that respected his football prowess back then as welkl as he racists crap we all see every day , but he was guilty and this will be discussed till hell freezes over , im ok with it as its never affected me but his victims deserved better ,

  7. we have had very good luck with amazon deliveries except most of the drivers here are muslins and don't like the dog , they tend to leave the p[ackages closer to the street than the door - we do have a "bridge" from the walk to the door and i dont mind walking to the opposite end , i like my dog better than i do the delivery folks ,  these days m happy if they keep their distance - the send my wife a photo of where the package is - long as its not in the driveway , im ok with it , 

  8. most all shotgun powders can be converted to the pistol caliber loads but one has to do the research and development based on known similar burn rates and such , im not familiar with that powder at all , .but ill keep watching as i may find some in the future 

  9. im now informed better on the caps than i was before thanks to this thread , , i appreciate it a lot folks , im not shure i even still want them but now i know more of what i want rather than the "no clue"] place i was in , kinda like spurs - ive always thought they might be fun , then i find out there are drawbacks id not considered i appreciate the open discussions , 

  10. im going to encourage the cleaning efforts that warden callaway suggested as it worked on my stoeger when i had some firing pin issues - i did not experience that opening failure but still seems a first approach to me ,

    I couldn't get either of my two grandsons interested either even though I had purchased everything they might need.

     

    They thought they were lovers?  One is now in Med School, but that is not the same.

    im sure mine will go on to do great things , he is on the "deans list scholastically" and is a great tennis player for his high school team but this would have been fun for him and something he could carry on in , oh well , you can lead them to water but you cant make them drink , even if it might be god for them , 

     

    i thought it something we might share but i guess ill pass without that shared experience - at least so far , if he decides to join me now he will be shooting my 45s or 38s instead of the 22s i bought him when he was born , may be they might come in handy for something else - i thought maybe covid but i never did that , - now that the ammo issues have started to recede i have it and dont need to use the 22s as substitutes so ............i need too shoot them for fun i guess
