      Lifetime membership in the NRA

      JFK also owned a M1 Garand rifle he purchased through the old DCM(now CMP) Had it accurized by a Maryland gunsmith named Parkinson IIRC. JFK tested out the AR15 when it was still new and exciting thought it a good choice for the SF guys. Another fellow in Maryland supported a theory that L...

      Guns & Ammo Magazine pulls a RECOIL

      Kiev is correct. Well REGULATED Militia meant a well trained organized group. You were supposed to regulate your firelock/musket to hit more or less to point of aim and to consistently fire. Sort of like "sighting in " a firearm today. Met Dick Metcalf many years ago.He did strike me as a...

      .45 Colt Case Rim Issue

      Polish the expander good idea.Try various shell holders to get best fit.Have noticed a wide variance in 45 Colt rims over the years from different makers.Had a lot of old WESTERN brass that did not want to fit the usual shell holder,found another the fit well.

      Mass murder in Canada,1989,need additional info

      The EVIL, the illness, the whatever, is the problem... not the tool. Mr h is correct,the problem is evil. Thanks to all for weighing in on this.The Canadian coward also had a large knife which he used to murder one or two of the women IIRC. In a room full of little children,an evil beast...

      Progressive Reloaders

      reloaders If the Dillon is the Mercedes,the old STAR machine is the Rolls Royce of (hobby) progressives. Yes,they use odd size dies.Parts are availible if you are willing to look. They will last a lifetime or three. Once you use one,you might not look at a Dillon in the same way. No slam...

      Mass murder in Canada,1989,need additional info

      Thanks for the info. IIRC,he had only a bag full of 5 shot magazines. At the time,official sources issued contradictory statements. Some talk of one "30 clip magazine',some talk of "banana clips" and then word leaked out the coward had a bag full of 5 shot mags and a big knife. Gotta spend...

      Mass murder in Canada,1989,need additional info

      In 1989 a women-hating loser named Marc Lepine murdered over a dozen women in Montreal Canada. His weapon was a ruger Mini 14,legally purchased a few weeks before the murders. This brought about a hue and cry for banning semi autos in Canada and the3 US. IIRC,the vile coward used 5 shot...

      Old reloading equipment

      The Lyman Powder measure is a good one. Doc is right.Clean it up and you will most likely be happy. When powder smells like solvent,it's time to use it for fertilizer. No smell and looks dry then give it the burn test. Of course,are you sure what is on the label is what is in the can ? If...

      308 Black Tip pulls?

      Skip has it right.Nice stash of Garand clips there ! The penetrator is carbide steel,very hard. Makes a dandy center punch. A long time ago the DCM used to issue WWII dated AP ammo for practice.Found it is very accurate at the 300 yard stage.Loses a bit after that,the 173 FMJ BT really...

      Found Cheap Source of Lead

      Sounds like a good find. You have the right mix of metal to add to get what you want. Wheelweights are a mixed lots these days. Lots of zinc,iron,even plastic ! The only ones worth the trouble are the big weights for truck tires. Very little if any tin in WW. One source of tin is pewter...
