    For all the scam calls and spam emails we get, our phone service should be free. Same for the internet. John

    Niagara surprise! Classic Remington Rolling Block

    Nice find, even if sporterized! An early #5 action with the bar extractor, but the Niagara connection makes it special. I had my #5 restocked and rebarreled to 38-55 WCF. The rifle had seen better days and I bought it for the action. It is a later version with the rotary extractor. Before the...

    moving my herd east, looking for advice

    Rent a pit bull and keep it in the back of the truck. Seriously though, tools are item of interest for theft and are easier to sell than firearms. I've known more people who have had tools stolen out of their vehicles than guns. I'd keep them covered up as well. John

    Things you can't find at home.

    Why is it that when I search for something, I find stuff that I was looking for the week before but couldn't find? Is there a word for that? John

    Rolling Block

    Those old #5 rolling blocks chambered for the 7mm Mauser often have over sized chambers. I recommend using new brass and to anneal them before use to prevent case failure. Neck size only, and yes, keep pressures well below 40000 psi when reloading. 170 gr bullets should do fine. I have a #5 with...

    Browning B92 vs Rossi R92.

    Or a 44 dual... and even a Colt 45 combo. That is what I like about the model 92s of whichever maker. John

    Browning B92 vs Rossi R92.

    I have three Rossi 92s: a 357, 44 Mag, and a 45 Colt. I also have two original Winchester 92s: 32-20 and a 38-40. Never owned a Miroku/Browing 92 but I did have a model 86 at one time. Fit and finish of the Browning will win hands down, but the Rossi should function and shoot just as well. It's...

    Pennsylvania has everything I need. And, surprisingly to many, more than a few places away from it all. John
