    I am totally…..

    Was that "in stock" online? Or did you open your local WM web page and see an aisle listing? My local WM here in Kremlinfornia has nothing related to shooting of any kind except air guns/soft and they're locked up like they're the real deal. Ironically they have 3 pallets of clay pigeons in the...

    Stock up yes!!! The point is we shouldn't have to. Something is afoot across the board.

    Barrel material

    Now that I can understand. But research should be neverending for those with the wherewithal.

    Barrel material

    I'm not suggesting using smokeless in a traditional ML. But as a point of discussion having been in the military and around all kinds of FA for 6+ decades it just seems that the Barrel steel in sidelocks should be up to the task by now if only to side step the Marxist restrictions in such states...

    Muzzleloaders and firearm laws

    To be clear: In CA the way the law is written is that any device that propels a projectile by means of an explosion IS a firearm. Above a certain caliber I.E. cannon is a destructive device. Some municipalities are even going as far as classifying air guns as firearms.

    Barrel material

    Barrel material

    Why don't custom side lock builders as well as mass produced reproduction companies such as Uberti, Pietta, etc use CHF ( cold hammer forged ) thus eliminating blown barrels from smokeless muzzleloader type powders?

    Who says gun shows are bad?

    I've never been to a gun show but always wanted to go at least once. The problem for me is. In my area (behind the left coast iron curtain) admittance tickets are only available online. You can't just show up. Being a truck driver with an unpredictable schedule it just doesn't work for me. Add...

    How far must you travel to hunt?

    1800 miles for me. Needless to say hunting for me is rare. There are closer spots but not without constant uninvited human interference.

    Oppose the Attempt to Ban Lead Ammunition on Federal Lands

    Lead bullet ban is just a backdoor way to stop hunting and turn firearms into clubs. Solid copper rounds in centerfires drastically increase barrel wear dovetailing with the push to make parts availability so difficult it's a defacto ban and then and more importantly! Per Fed Reg any projectile...
