    You can see how much mine has stretched (I'm just holding that with my finger for the pic) its made it virtually impossible to screw the lid on -

    That stretch is because they are using a poor quality rubber. You end up over tightening the lid to get it to seal which causes it to stretch even more.

     

    With the new gasket, make sure it is lubed on both sides with soapy water. Then put the lid on till it is just snug.  See if  it leaks. If it does, tighten down in small increments until it stops leaking. Over tightening can cause it to leak worse than if it is too loose.

    We live out in the country and we can't get any sort of cable/internet service worth a damn...we have tried all the dish/direct TV, Verizon Hotspot, nothing works. Fast internet is essential as my wife works from home sometimes,if she can.. We sit wayyyyy off the road and spectrum cable offered to lay wire back too the house for 9 grand....um no. We have some scrappy dsl stuff now that goes out a lot...ok,now my question

    Has anyone tried or do you have that new Elon musk cable, starlink??? If so, does it work and is it worth the money? It looks like it is now available in my area.

     

    My boss has it and loves it.

    I can take the 36 cal. cylinder and barrel from my Pietta 1851s and mount them on my Pietta 1860 Army 44s. Functions just fine on the pair of revolvers. Of coarse the 44 caliber cylinders will not fit on the 1851 36 caliber frames but the 44 barrels go right on.

    Mine are the same as Lead Monger.

     

    I have the 1851 short barrel in .44 and my .36 barrel and cylinder fit the 44 frame.

     

    How is the bolt to cylinder fitment?

     

    IIRC the 36 cal cylinder is slightly smaller in diameter.

  4. Once upon a time there was 4 bears,
    Papa bear who liked drinking beer,
    Momma bear who liked eating beans,
    Teenage bear who like to listen to Cha Cha records,
    And baby bear who hadn't taken an interest in anything yet.

    So one day Pa Pa bear, Momma bear and Teenage bear go out for a walk,
    While they were gone baby bear decided to give papa bear's beer a try and downed a couple bottles.
    Then he thought he would try some of Momma bears beans and ate a whole bunch of them.
    Then he sat and listened to teenage bears cha cha records for a while and then retired to his room.

    A little later Papa bear Momma bear and teenage bear returned.
    Pap bear yelled "WHO BEEN DRINKING MY BEER?"
    Momma bear yelled "WHO"S BEEN EATING MY BEANS"?
    Teenage bear yelled "WHO" BEEN LISTENING TO MY CHA CHA RECORDS?"

    Just then Baby bear came staggering into the room and goes HIC, FFFAAARRRT, (fart sound) Cha Cha Cha.

    It’s really no big deal to ask a person to show some proof that he’s an Ohio resident to sell him a gun or for me to buy one. All it takes is to show the person a DL. or state ID.

     

    There is no Federal Law that prohibits a FFL from selling a long gun to residents of other states. 

     

    Handguns however, have to be processed through an FFL in the state where the buyer resides.

  6. No current loading manuals have loads that require fillers.  Too many people were ringing chambers because they improperly inserted the filler.

     

    Unique is an exceptionally versatile powder. Not temperature or position sensitive and works well in large volume rifle cartridges as well as pistol and shotgun loads.
