Are you saying that static electricity from the vacuum could set it off? Walt

Cottage Grove, Oregon. I didn't know it was blank until I looked. Says it's a required field so I shouldn't have been able to create an account without it! Walt

It's not a ban as much as a temporary restriction. They will be allowed again when the weather is cooler and/or the rains come back. They say they've done this before but not while I've been a member. This will definitely make them rethink that carpet idea though! Walt

There's grass in front of the 3' wide strip of "Turf". Walt

The last time I talked to Jack Garner, he only asks for $100 upfront. Walt

Never heard of it. When I saw the original post and before I read further, the first thing that popped into my head was "Vent Hole". Interesting! Walt

You are correct! The carpet is easier to pick up fired brass from and was cheaper than concrete. One of the Board members suggested vacuuming the carpet until the rains come back. I was like, huh? It never occurred to me that unburnt Smokeless Powder would accumulate on the carpet creating a...

They never thought about it until now. They're still not blaming the carpet! I bet that wasn't cleared by the Fire Marshall when it was installed. Walt

Black Powder has been banned on our Club Range until further notice. A shooter on the Public Range started a fire with his 1860 Colt Replica Revolver. It was a Freak accident as indicated by his explanation. It wasn’t real grass but the Astroturf in front of the Firing Line. Maybe they should...

My 1990 CVA Catalog says $536.95 for a finished Flintlock Rifle. I have an older cap lock by Jukar. The local ML shop said it wasn't worth more than $450. $600 sounds fair but maybe a bit low. Especially on an older rare gun like yours. I sold one just like it about ten years ago for that...

Nice find. I'm guessing when you say "less than $1500", you mean cheaper than a custom gun. I always take used guns apart to clean and oil them well. These have RB barrels and are considered by many as tack drivers. Walt

I made one claim on a damaged Renegade within the past decade. I was afraid that if I requested the total value of the item, they would want to keep it. I obtained an estimate to repair the stock for $75 which they cut a check for. I did the work myself and relisted the gun for $75 less than...

50 yards on paper while sighting in. Walt

Greetings from the Oregon Territory! Many years of knowledge and experience are among our ranks. There are quite a few builders and tinkerers, and ENABLERS as well. Feel free to ask questions. Walt

I'm the same way but I buy, sell, and trade guns to pay for the hobby. That way it's not coming out of "Bill" money. Walt
