These are hard to diagnose without haveing the problem in my hands as you can guess so this is a basic stab at it. First off, the pre 64 is a fine action but the finish work on the feed ramp could be...

I used to work with a guy that fished the Hudson back in the 70's and he pulled up on the island to have a look around. He said he saw small gun parts a couple inches under the dirt here and there. A...

The bolt mod for a 44 Rem Mag is pushing it as far as I would take it. I wish someone would make a 44 mag specific bolt.

The IMI shot past a grand for a used one years ago. As far as the bottle neck thing goes, a Pump action should suffer nothing in feeding straight wall as well as a lever. The feed mechanism is...

Thats a fine Rifle there BMI. I used to dust wood chucks in my younger days with a 7 mag loaded with 100g Hornady HPs, Side shots would about split them in 2. We used to own the now gone Hamilton...

What has been missed here is the effect of bore wad friction. Those long toms worked for long range back then as they would today over any considerably shorter barrels. In Gunsmithing school, it was...

Pietro got it right to put the original warning up. Thats the first place to start and yet thousands of these guns have functioned well for years and years. The first model 1898 had been made up to...

Easy, For one, I have so many irons in the fire, it would make your head spin. Second, like I said, I have some 600 rounds of old PMC ammo left over from my dealer days of the 80's-90s that I dont...
