Those fees are insane!

Your idea of fun eludes me!

Congrats! You'll love it and I'd bet that it won't be your last. Though there are many of them out there, they are a disappearing breed and should only increase in value.

A $600 ROA would probably be in somewhat rough shape. I own 3, 2 stainless and one Blu, all in original boxes all in excellent shape and all purchased within the last year or so. The blu was the best price at less than $800 and I would be willing to bet that it had never been fire. One of the...

Local machinist should have no problem Fabricating one, worth checking out if you can’t find them on the Net.

Not a traditionalist like many here, cut my teeth on blue steel and walnut prior to interest in BP firearms. However I am a big fab of cherry, no stain. Cherry ages nicely and I know that people use various processes to accelerate that process (I've done so myself on some items I've made with...

I’ve never watched Yellow Stone but if what you say is true, there should be lots of unfired BP revolvers hitting the market (with damaged nipples from dry firing) pretty soon. I think that most who would buy a firearm because they saw it on a TV show would give up once they tried to find...

A video of you firing it would be nice.

Thanks for that…darn autocorrect! Maybe you didn’t insult your shop enough, some shops thrive on abuse!

Things would rust in my garage, until I insulted it. I just stapled insulation between the studs of the walls (nothing on the ceiling) and the rusting ended. Don’t know if that will work for your situation but it did for me.

Something different and I enjoy the process…but not the cleaning!

Tell that to some people in churches, synagogues, movie theaters, grocery stores, etc. Do you get me drift..??

God bless you, great post. Personally I would be ill at ease walking , especially after dark, in America's high crime, large cities. (Mostly Democrat controlled and with the most strict gun control laws) When I was in the USN (1973-1977) I had a good friend who lived in Chicago, he is Puerto...

So the 12 hour wet paper towel test is not a good enough test?

Eric, Have you ever had anything that you finished with Tru-Oil get "sticky" over time or turn white when exposed to moisture/water? I never have and I think that my 12 hour wet paper towel test pretty much debunks the turning white claim. I'm not saying that some Tru-Oil finished stocks have...

Reading your post the old saying “it is better to have a gun and not need one than to need a gun and not have one“ Also…”God created man, Sam Colt made them equal.”

I like your walking stick! The 2 is 1 & 1 is none is something that I first heard on a photography forum. Wedding photographers live or die by that philosophy. Reading your post, I could visualize you swinging that stick around during your walk in the woods…Not a pretty picture.

I have had good experiences on GB, however shipping, tax and the GB fee jacks the bid price up considerably but you know that going into it. We have a local (statewide) forum that has a classified section. I have gotten good deals on that site and until the Commie “universal background checks “...

first photo, prior to the test, 2nd photo is with the wet paper towel and the last photo is12 hours later. Hmmm no whiteness! My thoughts are maybe since I spray the Tru-Oil that I get a coat that has no defects that would leave partially exposed wood subject to the moisture. Just a guess but I...

I have mixed oil based stains in Tru-Oil but as I noted earlier I spray the Tru-Oil on with an airbrush. I have never mixed stain in it and hand rubbed it on but I would think that would work out fine... but I couldn't recommend it as I have never done it.
