I think the fallacy (at least at this stage of printing technology) is that "home gunsmiths" would like to print a receiver with a $500 machine without having to spend the $10K+ on a real mill.

Completely agree. For example there's nothing wrong with a man having 20 44 mag revolvers however I was able to decide I didn't need the six I had - especially as I only used 1 or two over the past...

“As of old” would be oversized chambers & throats and without evidence of thread choke.

Long? Maybe for someone with ADD/ADHD. Agree with you it is excellent.

That is not a fair indictment of the 45 super. If a guy had an original 45 Colt and thought he could carry Ruger-only loads for a little extra power in the woods nobody here would be condemning the...

You raise a good point. On the flip side can you trust who you hire? Just because someone has a gas license (easy to get) and is insured is not enough. Insurance requires me to hire a licensed...

Yep, good - until you realize the groove diameter is 0.002" greater!

Been harvesting firewood for heating since 1976 and done it all sorts of ways. Have a real heavy duty shop made hydraulic splitter but now only use it for the bigger and/or gnarly stuff. Discovered...

If you asked this question verbatim: "Am I able to legally take a revolver to California while I go on a pack trip?", not only would you not likely receive a response but in the off chance you did it...

I believe we castboolits types think there is more demand than in reality there is at times. I actually fell into that trap when complaining they had 475L in stock and no 480R despite it being the...

I agree with Don, good post.

It might help for some perspective that they will be looking for an order closer to 1 million than any figure mentioned so far in this thread. Yes, we're talking a...

Larger case head = more pressure on the breech. You can fire 223 Rem 55Kpsi all day long but one shot with a 475 Linebaugh (50Kpsi) and your Contender is toast. Given the same case head and pressure,...

Yes, and then how would the Blackhawk chamber compare to the Contender chamber made from yet another reamer?

The farther one goes down this rabbit hole crafting handloaded ammo with cast boolits,...

Looked at the butt-ugly Hogue grip on a SS SBH in a local shop 20 years ago. Picked it up and the grip was wonderful! Still don't have one. :confused:

"Electronic trigger" - Point firearm downrange, manually pull trigger and AI decides when to fire based upon sight picture.

Is this discussed somewhere on the forum? I searched but could not find it.

It's a gunsmithing operation.

A buddy bought a small Chinese lathe for $500 or so. Immediately began to lay out money for tooling. A few months later I purchased a 13X72 South Bend for $750. It came with an almost new Bison 3-jaw...

Donated food is wasted because all on the dole are eating BigMacs.

I'm not one who can contribute as having never owned one but am watching this thread. It is not uncommon for a cartridge to be given a status of performing out of proportion and the 41 seems to be...

Heated with wood as a supplement from '76. In 2003 went wood-only. After about 12 years of that decided to buy an inexpensive pellet stove with gov't tax credits and self-installed for not much more...

Thanks for the tip on Maggard's. Actually I do use "better" grade blades but always in search of betterer! My comment was to the effect of I haven't quite managed to match disposables from the very...
