    95 dollar left-handed Renegade

    I am going to see if I can get John Taylor to do the breech job and underlug. If he can't do it I would be mighty surprised.......

    95 dollar left-handed Renegade

    Yah, on the stock I figure it is either going to need opening up or filling in with a couple of Dutchmen. If it needs filling I doubt it will be very noticeable unless you really look hard. I picked up a NOS Browning BT-99 barrel in SS, it has no rib just three posts, one at the breech, one...

    95 dollar left-handed Renegade

    .....since I was crowing about my 95 dollar left-handed Renegade a few weeks ago, so this might seem a little over the top. Won a left-handed New Englander on Gunbroker for 87 bucks! The condition is fair, wood needs stripped and refinished plus some dents steamed out, but it has nice figure...

    .36 Remington

    I am another feller that has thought of converting a .36 Remmie to .40, considered it on more than one occasion. Never worked up the time or effort to do so, but I think it would make for a crackerjack bit of something different! :thumbsup:

    TC Hawken 12 Gauge

    Almost right! The .45 and .50 caliber Hawkens are 15/16", but .54 caliber Hawkens are 1". All Renegades are 1" regardless of caliber.

    Uncle Mikes ramrods

    I have been using these rods for the range for over 20 years now. Also use the pointed rod for cleaning modern shotguns. The 3-piece rod has very large threads, so I am not too terribly concerned about it failing. Should it do so, I will replace it with something else, until then..... BTW, I...

    Uncle Mikes ramrods

    I have two ramrods made by Uncle Mikes, one three piece for rifle and another one piece for pistol. both are very well made and, of course, no longer made. As an aside, if you ever find some tool or article of equipment you truly like, for darn sure buy a few as it will surely be either...

    Anyone ever use a modern barrel for a smoothbore?

    And you would be correct! The 20ga is actually intended as a light weight fowler for my soon to be six year old son. It will be full stocked and likely never see much more than 3/4 of an ounce of shot. When he outgrows it my three and a half year old daughter will be waiting in the wings! And...

    Anyone ever use a modern barrel for a smoothbore?

    I have a couple of modern barrels here that are take-offs from cartridge guns. One is an older 20ga Remington 870 barrel (no rib), and the other is from a 16ga pump action (again, no rib). Both have excellent bores and finish, and each was found for less than 30 dollars apiece. A good friend...

    My Tricked Out Remington

    I, for one, love it. Makes perfect sense, completely functional. The cylinder is only as long as needed to hold a target load, and the barrel protrusion through the frame gives you a long barrel for a clean burn while reducing overall length. The turned down barrel center takes off weight that...

    How Do You Heat Your Workshop

    I am following this thread pretty closely. We recently bought a new property and now have a 34x40 shop :grin: along with a seperate 5-car detached garage (and yes, these features were a large reason as to why we bought the place)! :wink: The shop used to have an old oil burning Lenox...

    Good deals at Numrich

    Well, you could have knocked me over with a feather today. I took my parts over to a good friend in our muzzle loading club who is a crackerjack builder and machinist. We measured the plug several times and discovered it is 5/8-18! What's more, the .40 caliber Green Mountain barrel I purchased...

    Allan Foundry

    I tried calling Allan Foundry a few times this week, and get a message saying the number has either been disconnected or there is a new Area Code. Looked for a new Area Code to no avail. anyone have any information on their status, or perhpas a new phone number? Sure do hope they are still in...

    Good deals at Numrich

    I am pretty sure the threads are metric, but have not had a chance to measure one as yet. Will post that info after Thanksgiving for the benefit of all. I cannot imagine there being any difference between the threading on a right hand or left hand plug from Investarms, so this info could come...

    Yeah, long time lurker here. So, does that TC replacement plug come in a lefty version? I have never seen the GM IBS offered in a left-hand version, but I don't mind the work fitting the hook if there are "sinister" replacement TC plugs offered. It would certainly be less work than cutting the...

    Good deals at Numrich

    I see this info has been mentioned before, but Numrich bought up all the Invest Arms made rifle parts that Charles Daly was hawking (yes, poor pun). These are essentially identical to the Cabelas Hawken, and most parts are available. I was able to pick up virtually all the pieces to build up a...
