Bolt hole would be the hole in the recoil shield that the center pin locks into

My comment on cleaning it was in jest. Nobody around here tracks private sales either, I have bought guns at steet fairs and garage sales too.

So what your saying is "if you find a gun clean it up real well before you turn it over to law enforcement." They could definitely have traced a model 64 to the first person who bought it using the serial number. Be more difficult to trace it though several owners if resold especially outside...

I have a fair collection of parts. I have bought them off Ebay, here and a few other spots. I have never bought one of the "parts kits", because for the price I might as well buy a junker off Center fire systems although right now they haven't got much inventory. But with some patience just...

Why don't we demand that cars involved in Drunk driving go to the crusher? It makes every bit as much sense as destroying a gun involved in an illegal ac

I have a lot of S&W revolvers, from 22 to 500. M frame I, J, K, L, N and X I have a few favorites but none are really on the bottom of my list. They all get some love

Deer and elk are hard on cars. But, my wife spend a summer after college working as a tour guide in Yellowstone and then the winter as a waitress in West Yellowstone. One of the women she lived with was from back east somewhere and while going down a road where the snow was about 8' high on both...

Go buy a decent truck for 3K, stick in a rebuilt motor for 3K a rebuilt tranny for another 3K. Paint 3k, Brakes and alignment 1K new seats and glass 1.5 K Now you have a nice REAL PICKUP with warranty parts for $15,500 and $4,500 left to make up the difference in gas mileage

When my step brother's step father died my step mother told me to come and Get one of Bill's guns he liked you and would want you to have one. I never went. Then one day she showed up at my door with a Winchester model 21 12 gauge double and said here take this. My preference to let everyone...

It taste like chicken? Are you sure chicken doesn't taste like rattlesnake, because I always tell people stuff taste like rattlesnake?

I try to stay away from anything to do with estates. Being the executor of my late wife's was more than enough.

Loctite and most other adhesives break down below 300f which is way lower than the temperature that will effect the heat treat. Get a drill check and tighten on the rod. place 6 empties in the cylinder, heat in oven and using leather gloves, rotate in the correct direction. Recess behind the...

I have read a lot. Several of the "classics" have left me wondering about the actual meaning of the word "classic. One of m favorite Authors was James A. Michener, he was wordy, but a least he was painting a picture. His book Caravans written in 1963C predicted both Russia and the US would...

I built this It Uses Ransom inserts and the clutch disk was for a John Deere fan

Actually it doesn't. One guy had 4 years to end the stupid war anyway he wanted and didn't. the other guy just up and did it. Poorly, true, but on the other hand he didn't let it drag on costing more lives and money. This is the end result of a 2 party system where you only get to chose between...

I am a 1951 model Boomer. What cracks me up is remembering my Grandpa talking about what is basically the same stuff many of you guys are. People haven't got any manners any more, nobody wants to work or do do a good job, they spend all there time watching TV or on the phone, they don't built...

A good rib steak don't need anything but a bit of smoke from a grill to taste great. I hate it when people stick a bunch of "Special Rub" on a good marbled steak and it masks the real flavor. I buy a whole beef off the Hutterites every year. Last one was an Angus, Semital cross

My paternal grandpa was way different vocabulary wise. I sometimes speak Marine with mixture of oil patch and commercial fisherman accent. I have improved from my 40s and 50s. Sometimes when someone swears I will let loose with a nice long string and then ask if they need anymore help

All the good men know when a good man is gone

I shoot 255gr slugs at 1100-1150fps out of my colts. I don't think that would work as well using acp brass. I have a pretty good stack of both 45 acps and colts. Most of the acps are set up with 4" or under barrels and most of the colts with 4-6 1/2" barrels except for my revolving carbine...
