    uberti revolver help

    From my limited experience,the smaller replica pocket models are just more finicky then the larger revolvers,and take more polishing to get working correctly.

    TC Hawken Rifle barrel/caliber swaps

    I have a Green mountain .40 cal for my TC Hawken it was tight where it hooks into tang 1st time or two I put it on but no fitting was necessary. I have no idea what it would cost,but others could probably answer. Would it be cheaper to find a barrel that has bad bore and get it sleeved...

    Why are Uberti pistol boxes so flimsy?

    I keep most boxes but not all,I still have box my first gun (Browning .22) came in that dad gave me in 1972. I like to get the box when I buy,but sure won't pay extra for it. In previous marriage I didn't keep any new boxes,it was hard enough keeping guns hid 😁

    Gun Lost :’(

    Little trick that has worked very well for me when ordering from Midway USA is to add a box of ammo,every order I've placed with ammo in it is usually next day,2nd day at most.if no ammo ordered 3-5 days for delivery.

    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    I use patchbox,I keep jag,patchpuller,ballpuller and enough cleaning patches in patchbox to keep stuff from rattling. If it's a large patchbox,I also keep 2 or 3 balls and shooting patches in patchbox when hunting that let's me reload quicker since I don't have to get anything out of bag.

    My balls are wrinkly ;)

    Get lead hotter and probably cast faster to get mold hotter, my first 3 or 4 are usually wrinkled then mold warms up, I often have a hotplate with molds on it to keep molds hot when I'm casting different sized balls and or bullets. If just a a few small wrinkles I'll use for...

    What Muzzleloading Stuff Did You Do Today?

    I found my future powder horn,I think the old girl wants to keep it for a few more years.🌝 Not sure I'll let her keep my powder horn much longer,when I work calves next spring I might just have to get her in headgate so we can discuss her horns☺️

    Don't Carve That Stock!

    My Harley riding buddy says Chrome don't get you home but sure looks good sitting by the road. I personally don't care for carving on a gun, I can appreciate the skill and time it takes, but it just isn't my cup of tea. I do like a simple line or two carved,on buttstock,and or...

    Ease and accuracy of shooting. 1851 Navy vs 1858 Remington. Thoughts?

    I'm more of a Remington fan myself,like OP my 1861 and 1851 Colt Navys just point better and for quick shooting I do better with them then the Remingtons,but if taking my time I shoot the Remingtons better. I always figured it was better sights on Remingtons. I even prefer the looks of...

    Duck Hunting with an Original Fowler

    A little off topic,but still consistent with OP . How does bismuth act with jug choke ? I've never shot Bismuth,I bought some week or two ago thinking I just might try to shoot a duck or goose this year. I don't even have a jug choke,but seriously considering having it done...
