A long tine ago, the original formula Gojo contained lanolin, but according to the company it no longer does. At least two people asked about it on the company website and both were told that it no longer contains lanolin. One 6 year old reply from the company states: "The GOJO Original is still...

Sure it could be related. With a short arbor, the deeper the wedge is inserted, the tighter the cylinder barrel gap becomes. The tight wedge can cause the arbor & barrel to angle upward and make it shoot even higher than normal. It's said to drop some thin temporary shims into the arbor hole...

Are you looking for a brand name or would you like to know if it's BP compatible? I recall someone who bought a very old ASM revolver in unfired condition who said that the action was so sticky that it needed to be cleaned in order to cycle.

I was able to put #10's in my cart and obtain a total with shipping I also did that before I posted it. I don't see anything written that says that Remngton 10's are out of stock on the product page. Maybe that was a temporary glitch in their automated system. Whenever there's a doubt just call...

The guy who tried the Gojo and another hand cleaner first starting using it as a revolver cleaner after the shooting session. It worked so well to dissolve black powder fouling as a cleaner that he decided to try it as a ball lube. He mentioned how much louder the shot from the .36 sounded...

***Some petroleum based lubes are compatible.*** After all, mineral oil, paraffin wax, petroleum jelly are petroleum based and won't cause any problems. Petroleum is a natural product but a lot of different derivatives can create tar. The main ingredient in Ballistol & Bore Butter & Wonder lube...

I punch out over-powder cards from 1/2 gallon juice cartons. Cards take up very little room in the chamber. They help to seal the chamber and to keep any lube separate from the powder.

If a person is target shooting on state hunting property then that can interfere with the rights of other citizens to hunt on the same property. Hunting is given a preference because wildlife conservation activities are the primary purpose of state lands. There's a difference between state land...

Why did you leave out the relevant part of my quote? I essentially stated the exact same comment in Post #15 on page 1 of this thread: "Since we don't know the details it's impossible to say exactly what went wrong. But there have been cases of powder being set off by static electricity. No one...

My state land reg's state "no target shooting". One definition of "promiscuous" is " demonstrating or implying an undiscriminating or unselective approach; indiscriminate or casual. " which could be considered to be an illegal discharge. If the discharge is after dark then that could be...

I think that a lot of light is being reflected in the photo due to over-exposure and the white background. Because of the angle of the photo, there's no indication that he needs a new and deeper crown because it can't even be fully seen. I don't see anything wrong with the bore either...

I doubt that an exporter is needed to comply with US Laws. You may need a Canadian export permit to meet Canadian Laws. It's possible that you can obtain an export permit on your own, if one is needed. There's a phone number to call for more info. Most states have no restrictions on shipping a...

IMHO your crown doesn't look like it needs attention nor does the bore show obvious signs that it needs lapping. I'm more concerned about the difference in the rifling between the 6 groove and 7 groove, which your post indicates that the 6 groove is later since it was made in 2013. Because...
