Sent PM a few days ago. Please reply via PM. thanks, Capt’n Rudy

Wild Willingham, thank you for the suggestions. Most appreciated. Capt’n Rudy

Good question Okie. Just revised the description to state it fit my Ruger with 2.25” barrel. not sure if a 3” would fit. sorry can’t be more help. Capt’n Rudy

No longer have the revolver and here’s a hardly used Triple-K holster. Can be worn OWB with the belt loop, but mainly IWB with the clip. Snap on top for pistol retention. Fits SP101 357 with 2.25” barrel, with exposed hammer (not bobbed). MSRP is $63. my price is $25 shipped. Thanks for looking, Capt’n Rudy

Recently I offered for sale this Sporterized Smith-Corona 1903-A3 and received a number of great comments from fellow Cowboys. Percy Halley even shared a photo of how he converted his Dad’s sporterized 1903 back to original. (Thanks Percy). So that’s where I’m headed since my son wants one of my other 1903-A3’s in trade for his Marlin Levermatic 30 Carbine. I’ll keep this Smith-Corona as a shooter. Here’s a list of parts I’m looking for, and hoping a Cowboy or two might have them laying around. Butt Plate (have both screws) Handguard Ring Lower Band with screw and sling loop Stacking Swivel band with screw and stacking loop Upper band with screw Stock with lower band retaining clip, and handguard with two metal clips Suggestions are most welcome. And thanks in advance, Capt’n Rudy, (USCG, Retired)

Here’s a rifle that’s a great shooter and is excess to my current needs (and space in the safe.) Springfield 1903-A3 made by Smith-Corona and still wearing the original 1942 barrel. The stock was sporterized by the previous owner and then I added a scope by tapping/drilling the receiver and changing the bolt. I haven’t shot it in a couple years and have since moved the scope and bent bolt to another rifle. It has an original trigger which was smithed and is just under 3lbs. I usually shot my cast 200 grain Lyman GC’d bullets with five-round groups, which @ 100 yards were just over an inch, center to center. See the last photo from 2016. $475 plus shipping. Or face to face in central Florida. Trades considered. Please send me a PM. Thanks for looking, Capt’n Rudy

Looking for a Levermatic chambered in .30 Carbine. Please PM me if you have one you’d let go to a good home, at a reasonable price. Thanks, Capt’n Rudy

I’ll take it. Thanks. P.m. coming your way. Capt’n Rudy

This came from an estate sale and I don’t shoot BP and never plan to. I cast about a dozen different bullets but never round balls. The mold looks in decent shape and there’s about 75 balls from this mold. Also included is grease, a powder flask, and a brass tool which I think is for setting the balls. $45 includes shipping via padded flat rate envelop. thanks for looking, Capt’ Rudy

Scale goes to Kodiak Jack. Just sent you a PM. now it’s your turn to post something for free.

Free RCBS scale and powder trickle. Came from an estate sale and is a leftover. Needs a new home. Appears to be missing the powder dish since the scale will not balance without almost 130 grains. Picture shows three 55gr FMJ 223’s. Also comes with a powder trickle. Free to the first interested, for the $17 cost of postage in a priority mail Med FRB. If I can mail it cheaper I’ll refund the overage. And remember to post something for free, and continue to pay it forward. Regards from Florida, Capt’n Rudy, USCG retired

This is a good discussion which we all need to take seriously, especially as we age. The screenshot below is of the booklet “Dementia and Firearm Safety” recently published locally (Florida) by an expert on dementia with input from our Sheriffs Department, a local gun shop owner, and an attorney. I highly recommend it. In the booklet you will find very good, concise information about mental decline and also helpful information about steps to take to help keep you and your loved ones safe as you age. Also in the booklet is a letter I wrote my older son (an FFL) in 2019 where I promised that when he determines that time has come he has my permission to remove all firearms from my home. If anyone would like a copy of my letter, then just send me a PM. respectfully, Capt’n Rudy, USCG, retired

BTT with modifications. The stand is no longer included since it made the shipping way too pricey. Now shipping is included without the stand. And again, thanks for looking. Capt’n Rudy

For sale is everything needed to convert your Ruger 10/22 to an AR-style firearm. Included is the chassis, barrel, buttstock, grip, forearm, Vortex Red Dot, multiple Ruger magazines, and a Midway short rifle bag. Not included is the receiver, bolt, and trigger group. So this is not a firearm and can be shipped directly to your home via US Priority Mail. More photos available via email or text. Just send me a PM with your contact info. It is available for inspection and face2face purchase in Central Florida. asking $500. Thanks for looking. Capt’n Rudy

BTT with a price drop. Will keep BTT with price change til it sells.

Good oldie that has been used but not abused. Includes primer catcher, and both large and small primer seaters. Does not include green stand. That way it fits in a priority mail large box. $70 and that includes shipping. thanks for looking, Capt’n Rudy

I will buy it. PM coming to you with my contact info. Thanks, Capt’n Rudy

BTT for the weekend. All paid items will be at the post office on Monday morning. Garage door closes on Monday and any leftovers go to other online auction sites. Thanks for looking, Capt’n Rudy

All sales have been updated on the list above, and I am working through boxing and will then be sending out individual “pay me please” PMs to all you buyers. Thursday evening rifle league (223 at 100 yards NRA targets) set me back a few hours, but range time is always worth the effort! thanks again for all the interest, and there’s still some bargains to be had. regards, Capt’n Rudy, USCG retired

Sorry, but #8 45-70 dies went to another Cowboy that claims them by PM before your post.

#24 & #25 no longer on hold

Caladisi Kid, you are my best shopper so far, but #10 was already claimed by Capt BB. How about #5? Please answer.

Time to let some unused reloading stuff go to a better home. Look and claim by the item number what you need. All prices are plus shipping. Then please send me a PM with your shipping and contact info, with item(s) number as the subject line. I’ll then send you a request for the total amount after I’ve figured the least expensive way to ship the item(s) you are purchasing. I’m located in NW Central Florida and can deliver to a local match for no shipping charge. Payment can be by Paypal, Zelle, or personal check (SASS members only). And thanks for looking.

Hey Buffalo, I got your p.m. expressing interest. Looking at your member number you are a newer shooter than I am. If you need leather to play the Cowboy game, make me an offer in a p.m. regards, Capt’n Rudy
