That's a nice idea, I'll save it for myself too... :D

Just the elbow is supported by the chest and the weight is shifted forward by the displacement of the left-hand position towards the trigger guard... That is what I do with my two Pedersoli Tryon can't do it another way (I'm 75 years old) and it works well...

In Absurdistan, powder flasks are forbidden for all shooting ranges: each powder charge must be in a tube. So I have three LEE volumetric measures in the style of this one for the BP and my old Lyman for the smokeless powders... Till now and after countless loads, BP never explode...

A simple little tool that's always in my pocket: Easy to use: - Press firmly the rounded end onto the flint edge to be re-sharpened. - Slide. - As you slide, the lathe-cut part will inevitably strike the edge of the flint and remove a small chip when passing. No hammer, nothing but the strength...

I always do this with the tumbler in a tube and after heating the hammer a bit (not the tumbler), if it doesn't work directly the first time put a bit of penetrating oil in the square hole...

6" After the chamber isn't important, you just have to know if the patch follows correctly the rifling, if it is the case "kein problem", unless, of course, they are real "caves" in the barrel... Here is an example of a very old Jukar (brand before Dikar/Ardesa/Traditions Firearms) with a bad...

For me: leather too...

When writing this, do you mean that we won't see Maria and her nice work anymore? 😭

Forget Naturabuy, which is a den of thieves, and not just for primers, but for everything else too, I don't even understand why you can buy there... Ten days ago, I bought a thousand CCI primers in a small seaside gun shop for a hundred and fifty euros, hardly more than before the shortage. Look...

A few months ago I tried and used T7 and Pyrodex, the result is that I will never do it again... I tried it because we have, here, in Absurdistan, a penury of real PN and now we can get some, with difficulties, real BP (French and Swiss). The French and the Swiss powders (equal in quality) are...

CCI and RWS, sometimes Remington...

Yep, me too, I give a name to my rifles. Today I went to the range with an old Jukar Plain Rifle, the name is very simple to retain: "Laagland geweer"... 🙂

Don't you try the Nutella? Het is lekker... 😁

Boffff, 75 years old too: barrel relatively heavy and pressing the trigger just during the right time, the only short one you must have during the time you don't breathe...

I'm also 75 years old, and I use this: You are being redirected... . The result is pretty fine...

Frequently the Spanish pistols were made for shooting with .440 bullets and patches .013" thick. I have two (Jukar and Dikar) like that and stamped 11.4mm for one and 12mm for the second (brand stamp, three circles, number, proof mark, and caliber on the rear left side)... It doesn't mean that...

If you are interested in the origin of this brand (Norberto Arizmendi), It is quite difficult to find documentation on these small Spanish gunsmiths, especially when they are from the Basque province of Spain: the documents are in the Basque language and rarely in Spanish. I had this little text...

Are you talkin' about Trantor? I'm Hari Seldon and I never carry any weapon except, maybe, one Pennsylvania .45 rifle: just a bit of powder and some flints... :D :D

Dusty, I don't know, but I got mine here: Amazon.com

Normally it's all OK... The power of a rifle bullet can be determined by calculating its kinetic energy, which is measured in joules (J). The formula for calculating the kinetic energy of an object is as follows: KE = (1/2)mv^2 or 1/2mv² Where: KE = kinetic energy m = mass of the object v =...
