  1. I wet the leather and insert the gun into place. I then mold the leather around the gun with my fingers. After that, I remove the gun, wipe the little bit of moisture off it, and stand the holster to dry, propped on an ink pen clamped into a vise.
  2. There....I fixed that for you. How bout we band together and shut the card game down?
  3. I believe in our Constitution. I've seen no evidence that either Obama nor Romney has any regard for it whatsoever. The same goes for the entire structure of both the Democrat and Republican parties. I do not intend to vote for socialism; neither the fast nor the slower acting version. I do not vote to be "on the winning side". If I get beat, and will, I still voted my beliefs. If you can't understand that, I'm not sure how to better explain it. If more people voted their true convictions, we could have some decent choices.
  4. If you guys agree with this article, and vote for Mitt Romney,or Barrack Hussein Obama, how do you not consider yourself a hypocrite?
  5. Suitable to me. I am voting my convictions. No one elses'.
  6. When the Rs submit a suitable nominee, I'll stand with them.
  7. I made one from a piece of deer antler. I think it looks pretty good.
  8. http://tv.msn.com/tv/article.aspx?news=726280
  9. Yeah. The trouble, however, is that those idiots are in charge of our country!
  10. Screw Obama. Screw Romney. There will never be any change if everyone keeps the same attitude as the two posts above. I will vote my concience. Good luck to those of you who choose not to.
  11. It appears the Libertarian party picked my presidential candidate yesterday.
  12. Good looking Mauser at a great price! It will be a good shooter, or the basis for a fine custom rifle. Either way, you didn't go wrong.
  13. The delete button worked fine for the one I got.
  14. Simply extending the piece of leather to cover the back of the slide works fine. When you wet mold the holster, it makes the leather stiff. Here's what the back of my 1911 pancake holsters look like: I find you will want a sweat shield on most everything except for a hammerless revolver. The cylinder keeps the top of the frame far enough away from the body as not to require one.
  15. Been looking for one, but I haven't found one for the price you stated. Good deal!
  16. I like the 7/8 oz shoulder. Go to Tandy and pick it out in person. No telling what they'll ship you. You'll likely get a lot of good advice from the empolyees there when you go. That's worth a lot to me.
  17. In my opinion, a lanyard would simply be one more thing that could potentially cause a problem at a very crucial moment.
  18. It isn't unusual for a front sight to be left a bit tall. That way you can file it to where it'll shoot to the point of aim once you find a load you like.
  19. Looks like you've got the idea! Is the leather vegetable tanned? I've been told that chrome tanned leather will corrode steel. For belt slots, you can punch the ends with one of these: http://www.harborfreight.com/9-piece-hollow-punch-set-3838.html and draw a line from outside of hole to outside of other hole. Same with the inside. Cut the straight lines with your hobby knife. I didn't care for the stitching awl, and do a saddle stitch using two needles. Here was my first attempt. ...and something a bit more recent Keep at it! It's a fun way to pass spare time, and you end up with something useful as well.
  20. If you're going to keep it, shell out the dough and replace the entire system. Refrigerant is expensive, and has to be replaced each time your air conditioner is worked on. Better to cry once and get it over with.
  21. You do some very odd, yet interesting things. Thanks for sharing. I didn't know Cricket made a left handed action. I'm surprised it isn't available on the rifles.
  22. You could have spent a lot more money, but I doubt you'd have ended up with a much better pistol. I really like my Rock Island. As for the rail, if you don't like it, you could always file it off.
  23. I have but a single magazine for several, and a dozen or more for others.
  24. Talked with him yesterday. I'll not go, as they won't allow anyone under 18 to shoot. My two boys would love that.
