    FedEx theft?

    You need to call the local FedEx and get the driver's and manager's phone numbers. I called the local folks and read them the riot act after leaving a gun at our community job box five miles from my house after I had sat at home all day waiting for it. If I am not going to be home and I have a signature-required shipment, I call the driver and tell him where to leave the box and to sign for me. The manager also knows this for when my driver is on vacation.

    FedEx theft?

    Make sure it wasn't delivered and signed for by the driver. It happened to me. I now have the driver's phone number and will make arrangements with him when I won't be home.
  3. As a non-SASS member, you are not allowed to post this type of ad.
  4. I like the Cimarron 1886. It is a faithful copy of the original.
  5. The same place mine is. In my imagination.
  6. Sal Lanara in Ohio. Revolver Renovations is the name of his business. You can reach him at: coltda@att.net His full name is: Salvatore Lanara Phone Number: 440-526-7265 Company: Revolver Renovations Address: 8150 RICHARD RD, BROADVIEW HEIGHTS, OH 44147
  7. If someone was going to steal it, the whole thing would be gone. Porch pirates don’t take the time to open a box. They run up, grab, and dash. There are thousands of security videos showing this.
  8. Many years ago I was in a female owned and operated Ace hardware in Colorado. I turned beet red when I asked her if she had offset nipples. (They are an electrical fitting.) She saw my discomfort and started laughing, stating she did, and then showed me, the electrical fittings that is.
  9. With Ruger’s new Super Redhawk in .22 Hornet just being introduced, I have it on high authority that Hornady will be coming out with .22 Hornet brass and ammo to support it.
  10. I think OLG is correct. And SPP is in every store in town. LPP are not to be found except on rare occasions. LRP? As rare as four-leaf clovers in the Sonoran Desert.
  11. You forgot dying from a cavity when the infection went into the brain.
  12. There have been scammers since the day Adam and Eve left Eden. You should always verify a merchant. Props to you for doing so before you send money.
  13. I’m guessing they want PayPal F&F, Zelle, Venmo, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or some other cash app.

    Cap and ball

    On the reverse, the grips on my 1860s were too big, so I traded for 1851 grips and frames. Now I can reach the hammer easier.
  15. My article on Bordertown will be out in GUNS -- Old West Annual 2024 in April. @Too Tall Bob In exchange for the even greater recognition this will bring to an already famous match, I expect the shot timer to be started 10 seconds after I start shooting each stage. https://fmgpubs.com/product/old-west-history-guns-gear-2024-special-edition/
  16. Well, for once in my life, I was faster than you! I bet I won't get to say that again!
  17. I think we also need to be mindful of what we post in forums. I often see members posting their contact information in threads. It doesn't take much detective work for a scammer to find that information and use it to contact the person or impersonate someone else. Scammers can make their phone numbers appear as someone else so I would bet that the same thing can be done with emails.
  18. Did you have your email in your profile or in an old post?
  19. FB is cracking down on firearm posts and anything that remotely talks about buying or selling firearms. They just had a post about this in the SASS group.
  20. Mine was delivered today by 11 am. Do not panic! Historically, slots will open up as the summer and fall progresses.
  21. I used to own a Miroku Winchester. They are high-quality rifles. They have a shorter stroke from the factory, about halfway between a Uberti factory stroke and a short stroke kit. If you plan on playing in NCOWS and SASS, be aware that NCOWS doesn't allow the Miroku Winchesters because they are already shorter stroked than the originals.
  22. I know someone who used to work in Hollywood with some of the stars. They would have the star's pistol cocked and do things to cover that fact. He specifically talked about a movie with Burt Lancaster in which this was the case. Sometimes, the person would have a fringed-sleeved shirt/coat so that the fringe covered the hammer. It was all about going faster on camera. Some actors practiced drawing in front of mirrors to see how "cool" a pose would look on camera. It's all for entertainment.
  23. There is a guy on Gunbroker that makes brass that accepts the power loads used in power actuated tools. The brass is reusable. I used 32 caliber round balls but you can also use regular heeled bullets. You can buy kits that have everything in it at Dixie Gunworks.
  24. If you start looking at who is anti-gun, the list gets long. Many will need to change how they shop, where they eat, where they watch movies, who they use for phone coverage, where they get healthcare, and on and on. A biggie is YUM Foods. All of these companies are anti-gun in some manner. 20/20 Vision A&M Records AlleyCorp Alphabet, Inc.
