I have had this same issue. Gun locks "closed" but isn't actually fully closed and you can't pull the trigger. what I found is the extractors hitting the rim of the cartridge instead of easily going around it. Some filing on the left and right extractors cleared it up for me. Also noted that it doesn't usually do this when feeding from the magazine because the shell slides up behind the extractors on the bolt face preventing the extractors from catching on the rim.

Congratulations to Mountaineer Mac and Fanny McGiver! Don't know Fanny, but have known Mac since he started CAS. I am seriously impressed with this young man.

Normally I would say this would be scored as a miss only. However, PWs comments have me thinking that any time an unfired round in a revolver at the unloading table would always be a miss AND a Procedural. Because you know for certain that a target did not get the required number of rounds fired at it, not missed, unfired and none of the spotters or TO caught it during the stage. Am I following this correctly?

I'll take it!

Kid Rich, I thought I had it good. My better half keeps an eye on primers, bullets, powder and regularly asks if we need some when they are in stock or prices look good. I do all the reloading but she keeps me stocked up with components.

Most of what you are asking is dependent on the District Attorney and state law. Most places, yes it could be elevated to murder in the first degree due to the felony in progress. That said, you can shoot and kill someone with a stolen gun in San Fransisco and get off with no felony, probation.

I suddenly have an urge to dunk some oreos in a tall glass of milk.

Just a reminder that there are still 3 justices on the supreme court that don't believe in the constitution.

Reminds me of when a couple inmates escaped in TN and one was caught by your average guy in his driveway. The local news interviewed him and he said when they reported the escapee in his area, he loaded all his guns... When I heard that I looked at my wife, she looked at me, and LAUGHED... I don't know how long it would take me to load all of them, but it would be a while.

Obviously, that didn't get any press coverage. Would be interesting if it was included in the appeal, and even more interesting if he won... I would be LMAO!

Not a lawyer, but I don't believe he can appeal on 2A grounds since his lawyers did not argue any 2A violation in the trial? Lawyers ???

Yean, kinda pricey, but if it is competition ready out of the box. I can see it being competitive with the Uberti's + parts + work = competition rifle. The currently available pistols in 9mm make this a good option for a new shooter that already shoots and possibly reloads 9mm. If these had been available 5 years ago, I never would have bought a 38sp. I've got at least 2k in each of my competition rifles if you add in the hours spent.

Bought one of the Carry versions like CBB pictured for my better half. Put some lighter springs in and it runs great for Wild Bunch Ladies Modern.

Great match, thank you all who worked hard to put on this match. Deadlee shooter for great stages and the food was excellent. Cows got Guns... who'da thunk. See ya'll this fall for the Regional.

You're killin me.

125 gr TC Hitec coated bullets 3.0 gr Titegroup OR 3.5 gr Clean Shot Fed primers of any flavor OAL 1.46 Rifle Uberti SS 1873 Pistols Pietta Californians Wife loves them... I shoot 44WCF (Sixgun Seamus)

Great range, great folks to shoot with. Well run when I went several years ago. It's the weekend before the TN state. Just can't do 2 big matches 2 weekends in a row.

Pair of 4.58 inch 44-40s. Blackhawk hammers, wolf springs, Altamont grips.

They look nice. Very expensive though, and only black or white.

Yes, that is exactly how it works. Knockdowns are scored as hits when down, doesn't matter how. Wind could blow them down or an errant pistol shot could hit them. Without a "dump target" to place the remaining rounds on, the shooter is left with "safely down range".

I also used Penn bullets 180gr TC 44 cal. Loved them, no one else made them. Been out of them since early last year. Don't see them on your website?
