Grizzly Dave Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 A few more hours at the office, then off to the chiropractor to hopefully set my back right so I can go shooting tomorrow. I'll go shooting either way, but it would be nice to be able to stand for more than 15 minutes at a time without alot of pain. Tonight I'll get the guns and ammo ready for tomorrow, and maybe have a go at disabling the auto safety on that new shotgun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucky Buscadero, SASS #73085 Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 Griz, a drink on BMC's tab sounds great. Been a long week in the IT world, been oncall all week and it's been a rough one! If I catch up on my sleep tonight hope to hit a match tomorrow. Barkeep, 3 fingers of Buffalo Trace and keep 'em coming 'til I slide off the stool. WJ, sounds like a good time is in store. Have fun! BB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Wahooooooh Badger's buying. Filler up barkeep. Best ya got. I'll have a beer. Just got back from the range with Willie. He was shooting his new ,458 Lott buffalo gun and I was shooting my .416 Rigby pinfire. I actually hit the target. Too bad about the guy that had it in the window of his Buick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grizzly Dave Posted March 19, 2011 Author Share Posted March 19, 2011 Guess he missed the memo about Buicks being targets. How'd Willie do with that buffer gun? Bet it packs a wallup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Shucks, he musta shot a hunnert times and only hit target once. There was a big hole in it where he did tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grizzly Dave Posted March 19, 2011 Author Share Posted March 19, 2011 Them buffers is lots bigger than those little paper targets. Well, cart in the car along with leather and extra ammo, just loaded up the loading strips, need to take them out, and air up the cart tires, they be a little on the soft side. Then just gotta lug the irons up from the basement to the main floor safe until tomorrow. I'm thinking I'll wait on tearing the new shotgun apart to disable the auto safety until after the match tomorrow, would hate to get it apart and not get it back together to shoot.

Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 I had a great time today. Went down to the gun room this morning to run a patch through the bore before I shot the Rigby. Marlin put a little screw on the ejector that you need to depress with a screwdriver and then with another screwdriver turn a locking screw to hold it down, then remove the bolt. The bolt goes back in and then you turn the locking screw and the ejector flips back into the position. Fiddled with it for the better part of an hour and could not get the spring to snap down behind the lock screw. I thought I might have broke it at the tip. It is a tiny thing. Called Willie to tell him I would not be able to meet him for lunch.. Went back to on it, got it apart, ran the patch, called Willie to tell him I was on my way. Wr had lunch and went to the range. Signed in and went to the firing line, set up the targets. Badger loads his rifle and pulls the trigger, click. FTF. Jacks out the round and looks at it. Not even a dent in the case. Shoots again, click. FTF. Jacks out the round and looks at it. Not even a dent in the case. Then this genius looks at the rifle. The cross bolt safety was in place and the hammer would stop there. DOH! After that the ole Rigby digested every one of them .22 booluts. Nary a misfire after that. I am pleased. Trying to get some range time on the barrel. It is a pretty tight shooter but I weave like a cloth maker. Anyway, I had fun. What else matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grizzly Dave Posted March 20, 2011 Author Share Posted March 20, 2011 Well, she needs some doctoring before she'll be a regular shooter. With only one papa dave's cocking lever in it so both barrels would cock, she went back to her old ways of not opening up all the way and staying open. I reckon a little grinding might be needed on that front lug per his instructions. My TTN loosened up after shooting some small game loads at pumpkins, so I might try that too if'n I get a chance to get up to the cabin. I reckon running a couple boxes of anything thru her will do some good. I shot her two or three stages and then went back to the hammered gun, with messing with it staying open and flipping off the safety, it was faster to cock the hammers as I'm used to. Perhaps I shouldn't have been such a cheapskate and in a rush and should have bought an already slicked up one from one of the fine SASS smiths.
