    I ran the gehmann through it's paces today. I made a video of this rifle slapping a 3" plate at 200yds. I love this gun.

    The iris in my profile pic is a gehmann ph510 and it is AWESOME....but it's $100 on its own. It can adjust from very large to very small in a twist.

    front sight

    The partridge cut is to create a strong definition it's more common in target guns. If a partridge is on a pistol, it will be more accurate than a ramp....but the draw from a holster is compromised.

    I'm in the whole rodeo about $110 with the target fixed peep. It will save me that much in misses.

    Threw down a dandy 3 shot group with the hawken at 200yds. The target sight is awesome.

    Small pawnshop find

    A pawnshop found hawken is what kept me here. Someone's dad died and they didn't want to mess with the "outdated" stuff. Good score.

    FOR SALE We need a “Member Feedback” thread/forum badly.

    A don't do business with thread is always fun. Sometimes it becomes a game of ping pong and you learn that neither the buyer or seller is anyone you want to do business with.

    WANTED Do not to do business with kd8jgu. He will not pay you.

    I'm a recent member here but have done an easy $10k in deal on 24hr campfire and rokslide. I joined here using my real name, paid my money and tried to buy an item by offering the seller a postal money order and as much time as he wanted to ship after he cashed it. I can't find any potential...

    My thimble's screw wouldn't hold. i soldered it. how'd i do?

    What happens after you solder is important too. Do not try to force cool the area. Doing so will cause potential movement. If you ever want to freak yourself out, put a sharpie in the barrel and a piece of cardboard against the sharpie. When you start pouring the heat to the barrel....it's...

    think about the time and effort it took..

    I made my own tap in an oddball pitch and that was work even with a lathe, mill and grinder. Can you imagine how many parts got tossed due to one too many swipes with the *******....it's probably where the name came from.

    Threads on barrel

    Sorry to drag this up, but this is something I deal with and hopefully my response helps someone. When needing to align any threaded to a shoulder item....barrel, drum...etc, measure the thread pitch. If the pitch is known, divide the pitch to get the number of depth per rotation. 16tpi is...

    Hunting in wet nasty brushy country

    Musket cap vs #11.....any one better or worse when it's wet and or cold? My past years have varied from 1/2" of rain in a couple of hours to potentially 10-15 below zero.

    I've been a muzzle taper for decades. The exposed cap makes me wonder.

    My leathercraft game is weak....but it should keep me from busting out the chop saw. I contoured a piece of foam under the leather to follow the contour.

    Fair warning. Williams sent the wrong screw for the front hole. It is 8-32. I had to machine this one to fit.
