    High Standard Supermatic

    Very nice pistol! Yours is the Supermatic 101 series, the first of the push-button takedown models. As others have said, Rimfire Central is the place to go for all things High Standard. That's where I got all of my help when I had questions. Parts are readily available through many vendors. I...

    A short post with over 50 years experience with phosphor bronze cleaning brushes

    I use nylon brushes only to clear unburnt powder residue from chambers and cylinders while at the range. They're pretty much useless for actual cleaning.

    How do you actually enjoy a Magnum caliber revolver?

    Simple...20 rounds of Special, Five rounds of Magnum (but only when there's an audience)

    Is Armscor ammo good?

    .22LR only but no serious problems. Dirtier than others, but a bore/chamber brush carried with me keeps things running well. What duds I've had always fired with a rotation of the round so the firing pin strikes a different area of the rim. When the ammo shortage was in full swing it was the...

    Radia Windrunner Aircraft

    It's in the design stages and, yes, I'm intrigued. What makes me wonder about it's feasibility is the fact that it's basically being designed as a single purpose aircraft...for transporting next generation wind turbine components. Great concept, but a single customer? Wind Turbine parts are...

    The people stuck using ancient Windows computers

    I have five operating computers in my basement...from Windows 98 to Windows NT, to Windows XP-Pro. I still have one 8" disc drive, a box full of 5 1/4 and 3 inch drives, and software from DOS 2.1 to Windows 10. I keep the floppy discs stored in a sealed container. I run Autocad LT and Autocad...

    Why can't they improve the "stench" to make it even better? My friend's wife gave me a "what for" last night - lol

    Can't say that I'm a fan of the smell either...but the stuff really cleans! I always wipe off ALL residue, though. one time I soaked a dirty 1911 because it was so dirty and forgot to wipe it clean. Fast forward about a month... I couldn't even rack the slide until I soaked it again! Then I...

    Raw Ivory

    Do you have a weight? I have a friend who is a carver and a scrimshander and has done many whale bone/tooth projects. Because of the differing documentation requirements in various states, he won't even deal with elephant ivory these days. There are many things that affect the price of ivory...

    Rotator cuff injury

    I had mine repaired by arthroscopic surgery in 2007. Only after that did PT actually do any good at all. I now have 98% range of motion in my now pain free shoulder thanks to a good surgeon and a good PT regimen. PT was no fun. There were days that I dreaded it. BUT...every session yielded a...

    My Rant of the Day

    CCI ammo does this to RI residents. They'll bombard you with emails and online ads but, when you try to order, "We Cannot Ship To RI". I'm done with them because of this.
