Not so much.

Best,

Stan,
I've been using the custom molded plugs for nearly 40 years with great effect as well. Thankfully the military didn't damage my hearing, as I always wore hearing protection. Sometimes I'll double up with muffs as well at the pistol range.

This blog post says 1000 coats over a 6 week period to get the high gloss finish they want. They use 60 coats of red oil to get the color they want prior to the oil finish.

Please take a look at the Jerrry Fisher Springfield at the link below. I'm curious about the bolt sleeve / safety / striker knob. The bolt sleeve looks a little like an Ed LaPour safety I have on a Springfield, but it isn't the same. Particularly on the left side. The striker knob looks to be a custom build also. My bolt with the LaPour safety has a "modern" sear design that has no extension behind the bolt sleeve. Anyone have an idea if Jerry Fisher made this bolt sleeve / safety / striker knob? I assume he did. I haven't seen another like it on another rifle. It is very cool.

Custom $3500
stock for a Kimber model 82. Cancelled due to lack of funds. $1000 shipped. Allan 423-262-8394

This was about 6 years ago but I was considering sleeving a gun and reached out to both Aaron Little and to Dewey Vicknair. Dewey was happy to give me a quote.

from several different savage 22 high power efforts over the years, i can relate the experience that the speer 70 grain semi-spitzer (@.228) is much more frangible than the hornady 70 grain spire point (@.227). these were the choices for 22hp that were readily available. i believe the norma bullet was midway between them - but never found those bullets available as components.

doubtlessly german sources would provide bullets better suited for high velocity, but if experiments with cheaper stuff is useful i would search for the hornady.

best regards,

tom

Nice! They are all retiring. This is the last month Bowen is taking any more orders too

Oh, SKB. How I wish I had joined this forum before I picked up these shotguns.

It's been a real learning experience

I don’t disagree, just didn’t push me over the edge. Kinda enthralled with these hammer guns and finally got this “ Record” 16ga
Shooting straight. Likes a 1oz 1145fps load to get poi to match poa.

Totally appropriate indeed. I knew a bloke (now departed to the Lord) who used to designate his profession quite humbly - when asked - as "farmer and vintner." - Very plain, very korrekt.
The same man also, in other contexts, used to remark: "this state in the German Federal Republic, which beareth MY name...".

He was of course right in that point, too (it was HRH, Carl Georg, Duke of Württemberg, chef of the former Royal House).

Tell me more about the SxS, it doesn't look like any Rizzini I am familiar with. Barrel length, chokes?

RST 2.5-inch 20-gauge

RST has shells appropriate for that gun at present, but availability is off and on. Reloading with roll crimping makes it easier to enjoy short chambered guns.

Directly from the ATF web site....

Caliber or Gauge Name of Importer City & State of the Importer.

The importer must ensure that these marks of identification appear on each firearm. If the manufacturer did not mark them, the importer must place the required markings on the firearm within 15 days after their release from Customs and Border Protection custody. The Director, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives may authorize other means of firearms identification upon receipt of a letter application from the importer, submitted in duplicate, showing that such other means of identification is reasonable and will not hinder the effective administration of the regulations.

Also in my experience a lot of English guns may not have a serial number or just a serial number on the barrel loop. You would be required to create a number and have it stamped or laser engraved on the frame/receiver.

Thanks Tim

If I saw something that my dad would like, I’d be on the phone or emailing him to tell him about it. When I saw the stock, I was like “Dad would like this”.

If one of the actions fits, I will post some pictures.

Thank you!

Later I’ll start a thread about how “Project Gun” turned into “Project 4 Guns” through some GunBroker mishaps. The punchline: I’m an idiot.

Good luck in the future, Lloyd3.

Look in Roger Lake's Paradox book - lots of great pictures of cased Paradoxes.

The top rib extension didn't turn out great, but the sleeve weld (likely TIG) is almost invisible.
