Just snagged this one off another forum I belong to. It's a 1989 S&W Mod. 29 w/ 3"Bbl. Can't wait to get it in.

I admit I confused Memorial Day with Veterans Day. Thank you to all who gave their lives in the service of protecting our Country. Giving one’s life for others is beyond heroic. But still, to all the current and former service members on the TGO, and all other current and former service members, thank you for your service to our Great Country!

RE: " The 410 "... Has always been a shotgun connoisseur's gun. Anybody that hunts with and regularly brings hone game with a 410 is braggin without sayin anything. There aint much margin of aimin error for 3/4 oz of shot. Us " lesser shotgun men need at least1 1/8 with a light field load twelve ga... SIGH... The second is the skeet thing... Another small fraternity. That said; my favorite 410 is the Mighty Mouse Winchester Model 42... Im an old nan, and never got to own one...SIGH... On a brighter note, i own a brother... The mighty mouse 28 gage. He is the same thing only in a prettier package. RE: " The Mighty 16 ga "... I like him alot, basically the same as the 12. When i wuz a boy 60 years ago, there were just as many 16 ga totin bird hunters as were the 12. My uncles wouldn't turn around for the difference between em in the great side by side bird huntin days. Ammo for the 16 wuz just as plentiful as for the 12. There were ( ..and still are.. ) lotsa great doubles, pumps, n semiautos from the great gun builders of old still floatin around. I'm thinkin manufacturing streamlinin, hunting downturn, and the skeet/trap thing finished the 16 ga off due to his exclusion in the shooting competition. SIGH... Thus endeth the shotgun musings from the crumudgeon corner... " Shotgun " leroy...

More than likely a low/no charge on the first one, or two, and the shooter didn't notice so kept firing.

I have one for my RIA 1911 and really like it. I also bought a matching magazine holster for it. They also have good customer service of you have any questions.

Never heard of it. I’ll check it out. Many thanks! I looked. Way out of my price range.

Aren't most if not all primer manufacturers also ammo mfgs? They use most of the primers to load for those that can't or won't load their own. Folks that reload are at the bottom of the heap and are offered the leftovers.

I bought a nickel 57 S prefix a few years ago for a song. It was well worth the price of admission. I too lust for a nice vintage 58. A companion 1894 Marlin would be all the better.

This guy has repeatedly broken his oath to support and defend the Constitution. Of course, that is what passes for normal these days in DC. But someone should bring up that he has promised in these hearings to violate the 2nd Amendment as much as he can. The whole Waco involvement just points out how much of a sick character he is.

"Assault rifle" is the English translation of the German "Sturmgewehr", as in the Sturmgewehr 44. This rifle was made during WWII as the earliest mass-produced, select fire, intermediate cartridge rifle adopted and used by military forces. Some sources indicate that Adolf Hitler personally named the weapon, but there's no direct evidence of this and it is known that Hitler was opposed to new weapon development, as Germany's resources and production facilities were already strained. In any case, as it was the first of these types of rifles to appear in combat, the German name stuck and is still used today to describe these types of rifles ...

Like some of you have said, I like the Ruger LCP for tight concealment and the Ruger LC9S when I have a bit more room. Both great guns!

Okay I will share my recipe, NOTE: use at your own risk. I shoot mine out of a Taurus 65, .357. This can be used in both .38 special and .357 revolvers. I use .357 brass and because there isn't a bullet protruding from end it will cycle in both. Take a dozen or more brass and remove the primers then open up the primer pocket flash hole to about twice as big.This will help prevent primer setback. I use 5.8 gr. Bullseye with 2 wads over powder, about 88 gr. of shot I use #8 because I didn't have #12, 1 wad over shot and either seal with hot glue gun or wax. I make my wads from thin cardboard like the type used in Federal primer packaging, I use my lubrisizer and make up a bunch. This is good for about 10 feet, but make up some and test them as YMMV. I also mark the bases of this brass to keep separate just for this application. You can use 3.5 gr. of Bullseye and substitute uncooked rice for the shot and make bee/hornet loads. They are a hoot!! Yes if there was a rednecks anonymous I would probably be at most meetings!! LOL

Go to https://castboolits.gunloads.com/archive/index.php/t-77286.html and click on the full version of: "Revolver shot loads that work" in the upper left of the page. The thread I linked is eight pages long so you should be able to find something there.

You need to have a test before getting on the plane or entering a foreign country. It has to be less than 72 hours old and approved by the airline and the country. It doesn't leave a large margin of error. My Wife and Daughter are traveling for my Daughter's graduation present. My birthday and my Daughter's birthday are extremely close and my wife put the wrong day on her covid test and my Daughter was denied entry into the country 5 hours before she was about to leave. The country would not let her in without a new form from the lab. We had 3 options. 1. They don't go and 6k is lost. 2. Get someone at the lab at 11:00 at night and get it fixed. 3. Something my Wife really wants me to explain when she gets back. I go to work on 2 and 3. I can't get the lab, but I can get to the people that can get to the lab. That angle works, but could take 48 hours. After a little work plan 3 in nailed down. They get on the plane without approval of the receiving country. Finally get the correction from the lab. Submit correction to the receiving country. My Daughter gets approved in the air. 1. I hate this covid BS. 2. The airline didn't catch the mistake. 3. I hate covid.
