    Gunbroker Unscrupulous Sellers

    Yeah I had a similar situation with a unmentionable winchester 94 somewhere between when the pictures that were taken and when it arrived at my front door the butt stock was cracked. I don’t believe it happened in transit. He wanted me to file the shipping claim meanwhile he was the shipper. I...

    Beware GunBroker Sales

    I have the account a while and it used to be easy for the most part. It’s not that I’m older but I struggle to read stuff because I still have brain fog from covid 3 years now. Just entering all the fields is a PIA And then they offer html give me a break that is not necessary adds time and...

    Barrel Browning with Laurel MTN product

    One last question and by now you know I ran into another problem kind of. Both the Lancaster and Wood Runner Barrels are finished for about a week. I think my baking soda lost its effectiveness in neutralizing the barrels. After scrubbing them clean and rubbing the Arm and Hammer for several...

    Bar & Chain oil?

    Probably will work well to prelube your patches. It is very clingy as intended and may be a good lock lube but I am not sure how well it would seep? If you have any differential oil laying around that stuff has tons of friction modifiers in it but boy does it smell bad.

    What part of Long Island you from? I had a friend when I was in Grammar school whose family traveled the Oregon Trail. I don’t know how long the family was here prior but I do believe they were part of the Mayflower gang. The family had Bibles on display that were passed down. I live in East...

Apparently maybe I’m wrong but I just tried again on a Wood Runner barrel and had much better results though I have a few more applications to make. I still don’t know why I was getting the copper color but as others mentioned just keep...

    Barrel Browning with Laurel MTN product

    The barrel was not flooded with the chemical a damp cotton patch. The barrel was bone dry. As soon as the chemical came in contact the metal turned copper colored in numerous spots. Make the detergent left a residue but i don’t think POR 15 leaves a film especially after being flushed with hot...
