East TN Monthly shoot??

[Oh Shoot]

Don't know, it was an impulse buy at $90 OTD. Looks clean. I've heard that the ammo is available. I'll have to do some searching.

Reading up on it on Wiki, says:

"The Revolver can be safely fired using the .32 Smith & Wesson Long, .32 H&R Magnum as easier to find, and sometimes cheaper alternative calibers."

Nagant M1895 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I think I might tie it to a tree for the first cylinder full, myself.

1:00 pm ish?

Sounds good to me.

[Oh Shoot]

1:00 pm ish?

I'll come out yer place as usual on the way.

Btw, you were right that I should have gotten my toy truck into the shop. It completely died on the road today!

Start answering your phone, ya jackass! I bought a Nagant revolver today on an impulse. Don't know the first thing about them. I'm looking forward to shooting it, though.

I'm getting one of these revolvers from Aim Surplus. I spotted it the other night when ordering some Mosin ammo. $79.95, I can't resist. Georgia Arms has the 7.62 Nagant for about a buck a shot. They also have the .32 S&W Long, much more reasonable to shoot.

I read up on the history of these Nangant pistols and they're pretty unique. I figure it'd be cool to have even if I didn't shoot it. But I will.

I'm not sure if I can make it Saturday but I sure do want to try out my new (old) Mosin and run some ammo through my Carcano for the first time in about 30 years.

Sure wish there was a shortcut over the mountain to Norris.

Sure wish you could make it. Has your Czech perfume arrived?

I ordered it Sunday night and hope to have it by the end of the week. Not yet. Maybe tomorrow.

Mac is your truck fixed? If so I will look for you about 12:15- 12:30.

Let me know if we need to go to a plan B.

Now the hard part, trying to decide what I want to clean Saturday night.

Pert sure will be...it's down the road at a place..

Turned out the intermittent miss was indeed electrical, no juice to engine or even anywhere beyond firewall, some major relay somewhere...

If you guys wouldn't mind a tagalong, I'd like to bring Boris and Ivan ( Mosin & SKS ) and shoot a few rounds. Anyone have any directions ???

Be great to meet ya!

Exit 122 off I-75 N. Right about a mile to light. Left into Norris.

Can't think of any shortcuts coming from Chapman Hwy.

Police/Fire Dept is in middle of town next to school and athletic field, and they'll give you paper directions to the range after you pay...

OS if you need a lift to retrieve the truck let me know.

[Guest SUNTZU]

Thanks for the info on the ammo, Motasyco. I preciantate it.

[ftncityfatboy]

i would very much like to go and currently am planning it. i may have to go to my daughters place saturday (you know the one Mike357 thought was my wife!) but i'm trying to talk the other half into waiting until later in the afternoon or early evening. I will meet up with you guys at the range, i know the way to the Norris PD

[Mike.357]

thought was my wife

I just figured a playa like you would have a young one

[Mike.357]

oh yeah, just got back from the target store.

i think I have something we will not be putting holes in

now to come up with a plan to set it up and a plan to get it out to the business end of the range.

[Guest SUNTZU]

I think I know what you are talking about.

[Mike.357]

they used a front end loader to put it in my pick up

i think I have a way to get it out to the end of the range, now I just need to ponder how to best stand it up, I think it needs to be slightly canted forward too.

[Guest SUNTZU]

Can you drive out onto the range?

[Mike.357]

no driving on the range.

I think my dolly will work for moving it.

I am going to see about drilling a hole through it. If I can get a hole in it i may be able to attack an eye bolt. With the eye facing the rear I think a piece of chain or rope attached to a sturdy peg or piece of rebar might work. The plate could be tilted slightly forward and the rebar drove into the ground behind it. ( dunno if the makes sense or not in writing)

If none of that becomes practical I will stand it up using the method employed on Garufas girly little plates.

I think as long as we are using less than .50 cal on this it will hold up.

[Guest SUNTZU]

Wear your helmet.

[Mike.357]

you coming or still moving?

[Guest SUNTZU]

What do you think? :grumble, grumble, grumble...:

[Mike.357]

What do you think? :grumble, grumble, grumble...:

i think you will watch your girlfriend sleep on the couch. I honestly never heard of someone taking a month to move.
