      Cowboy Action Shooting near Annapolis

      I have been wanting to see what this is all about. I think I will stop by and check it out. I will be there this coming Saturday.

      New Colt Combat Commander: First Impressions

      Thanks for your insight in how this new Colt shot; you wrote a really interesting post. I have been wanting to buy a 1911 for a while now and was looking at the SR1911’s, but now I think I need to look into this model.

      Any FFL's charge one fee for multiple transfers?

      Realize it costs money to keep a place open; however, it wouldn’t seem outrageous that a discount shouldn’t be provided on multiple transactions. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

      Interesting Listing on Gunbroker Beretta (92 9mm)

      I think you guys are correct. Some how I saw an air gun that I thought was listed. Its been a long day.

      Interesting Listing on Gunbroker Beretta (92 9mm)

      I was looking on GunBroker just a bit ago and was looking for a used Beretta 92S or 92FS. Something for less than $300 that i could work on. Well I came across one that I have never seen before (different grips and controls). Listed as: Beretta 92 9mm FFL is required (min bid $260)...

      AWB Challenge Filed in Massachusetts

      They are so driven in their hatred of guns and gun owners, that they don't care about any reason to have a gun. They don't want any dialog. They know that if they could just get rid of the guns, then all the violence will go away. Read something the other day that said the violence in Mexico is...

      Why gun control is wrong...

      It seems that a lot of schools are teaching our children that guns are bad. They then reason that the people who own them must also be bad. Times have changed... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

      March 17-18 Antique Arms Show Timonium, Md

      This will be my first time going. I just started a little project with a couple of Remington Rolling Block rifles. A Model 2 and a Model 4. I need a half dozen parts to make them operational, like screws and springs. I am so looking forward to having the opportunity to look around and talk with...

      2 - Remington Locking Block Rifles to restore

      That's where I am having issues. When I watch the videos online they repair everything (i.e. steaming small dents in wooden stocks, etc.). The one I believe is Model 2 (octagonal barrel) if you look at the pictures of the receiver, you can see a varnish like film encapsulating the steel. I want...

      2 - Remington Locking Block Rifles to restore

      Thanks for the links and advice. I watched the video about lining the barrel and I saw several others on stock refinishing on YouTube I am amazed at all of available videos and articles. In the past few days I have learned so much interesting things. What do you think about taking off the...

      2 - Remington Locking Block Rifles to restore

      I think I will document this restoration project in detail so that others may benefit and I can look back at a later date. Do you think it would be better to continue here with the restoration phase or start a new one in the Gunsmithing Forum? If I started a new one, I could at least correct...

      2 - Remington Locking Block Rifles to restore

      That is definitely something I will want to look into. I am kind of reluctant about shooting it. Paraphrasing Threeband's point about if the breech were to shear it would be aimed right at your eye.... However, once I get a stock on it, I know I will be itching to fire it. Maybe use a bench...

      2 - Remington Locking Block Rifles to restore

      I cleaned and oiled the barrels of the two and found that the one with the stock and an octagonal barrel is also a smooth bore. It is pitted and looks to me to be in pretty bad condition, but for the age, maybe it isn't as bad I think... The other one which has .22 engraved, the rifling is...

      Would the 10615 be considered a low serial number? Also thanks again for the post. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

      2 - Remington Locking Block Rifles to restore

      I will be going to the Baltimore Antique Arms Show next weekend. Never been to this show before. Hopefully there will be parts I can get and especially people to talk to about the two rifles. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

      2 - Remington Locking Block Rifles to restore

      I just watched the videos using cerrosafe and I definitely will be doing the same to determine the caliber. Any other tips or advice you have will be greatly appreciated. Thanks again, John Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

      2 - Remington Locking Block Rifles to restore

      Good point on the failure mode. I still want to restore them for the experience and then hang them on the wall. Thanks for the he heads up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
