    Clip or magazine?

    I propose we call all single-row magazines clips and all double-row clips magazines.
  2. Both the Remington 1858 New Army and Colt Army, Navy, etc. were converted back in the day to fire cartridges. Maybe the Remingtons more so as it is a superior design () but it was quite common after the War of Northern Agression and evolution to cartridges. I know .45 Colt conversion cylinders are available for the modern Reminton 1858's.
  3. Don't forget Dan Wesson.
  4. She hasn't read the book...."One Second After".
  5. I am by no means an expert but I hear good things about the Smith & Wesson M&P15 line.
  6. With two boxes of ammo I'd say that's about right. Please do post some pics.
  7. No more than $100. Can you describe it in greater detail?
  8. Looking Good! I hope you ceremoniously burn those pearl grips.
  9. That is strange. I heard that Bill hung the moon.

    I'm right there with you. Clip.

    Tsunami in Japan

    That reminds me...I'm still pissed about the damnyankes forcing us back into their country via invasion, theft and terrorism.
  12. What shows are you referring to?
  13. I have heard nothing but great things about CZ .22 rifles but we are not allowed to see them in Knoxville. The only place I've ever seen one for sale is Goose Mountain and we all know what that means.
  14. If you're gonna bench a Mosin invest in a Nancy Pad. Link for reference....Amazon.com: M44 Mosin Nagant Rubber Recoil Butt Pad: Sports & Outdoors. They are widely available for cheaper than this. Don't worry about the M44 part, all Mosins have the same butt. There is no shame in it whatsoever. It lengthens the pull.
  15. Not according to this....Tennessee Show Dates
  16. I just looked at the schedule and there is not another show in Knoxville for THREE MONTHS. That is unheard of and I am already suffering withdrawl symptoms.
  17. I like gun shows. Even though the Knoxville shows have the same dealers with the same guns every single month (or couple of weeks depending on time of year) you never know what might show up, usually from some random guy walking around. Occasionally, maybe once a year, someone new will show up with a huge table of old parts. I like old stuff and around here shows are about the only place to catch a glimpe of old, quality firearms. Gun stores are all about selling Glocks, XDs, plastic M&P's and whatever is the flavor of the day to bolt onto an AR. You can find all that stuff at the show cheaper than any store. I don't go for knives but some of my friends do. That's cool. I don't go for Beef Jerkey, jewelry, pickled-eggs or any other such nonsense. I go to find and look at old guns. I'm an enthusiast that way.
  18. This absurdity has been floating around for several years. If things ever get to that point (and they will eventually) I would also like to see my insurance rates and fees (of all varieties) adjusted to actual usage as well as property taxes, federal income taxes, etc.
  19. It is, but the classifieds just wouldn't be the same without all the "If you weren't on the other side of the state" crap.
  20. Tighten up the two screws that hold the action in place. One just forward of the magazine and the other on top behind the bolt. Make sure they are good and tight. Accuracy goes out the window when they are loose.

    Tsunami in Japan

  22. Gander Mtn. plans shooting range I hate to think of what range time there will cost and I bet they make you buy their bullets.
  23. Vontar, you live in Oak Ridge. It doesn't get any more radioactive than that.
  24. Maybe they aren't sure if that's her or not.
  25. Get the 500. Those massive pistols serve no purpose but are mighty fun to shoot and will always make an impression at the range.
