Hello all, Does anyone know if an Encore 209x50 muzzleloader frame will accept a rifle barrel (not a pistol barrel...) Thanks

Hello all, I have a field 1100 LW20 with a fixed full I'd like to open up for skeet use. Not interested in re-bareling since the barrel would be worth more than the gun! Do you know of anyone who can handle this job? Thanks

Green + 1911 = Always good!

...hour's drive to Gander Mountain in NY. Looks like my best bet. Thanks~

So, getting back into black powder after 20 years, I have found that none of my local suppliers even carry powder or percussion caps...only whiz bang pellets and 209 primers! Any suggestions on a local supply of these items? Thanks

Catching up on Sons of Anarchy...just discovered it on Amazon on Demand and already on Season 6. I'm hooked~

My bad, I meanty Sunday. I was up there today. Thanks again for the offer.

+1 that! Especially the extractor and firing pin. Only parts I've had to replace more than once (after 5000 rds or so). Plus the parts get harder to find every day. So if you find the unissued extractors (like the PBs), grab 'em. Every vendor mentioned is highly recomended. Dumb one, but I have a bad habit of losing my front sling swivel screw...always seems to come loose. Doesn't affect shootting, but I keep a spare for the inevitable.

Hello all, I love my Case XX smooth bones. Docs,Toothpicks, love em all. But I'm looking for something comparable that I can take in the field, and not worry about value loss from sharpening, beating up, or heaven forbid, lose (never done that lol). I have seen Hen& Rooster, Kissing Crane and the like but have always owned Case. Any suggestions on a quality folder comparable to a Case? Also are Rough Riders POS? Thanks

Thanks all! Dave, Family's got me Saturday, but I hope to get to your next event. I'm looking forward to getting back into this. I'll try those two starting points and go from there. Mosin, I'm looking for mainly range fun. Thanks...

Good morning, I have a TC Hawken I built in the early 80s that hasn't been shot in decades. I would like to shoot it again, but would like to tread lightly at first. What is a good place to start with pyrodex and round balls? PS~ It's also been about as long since I researched blackpowder advancements. So, if there is a better powder/ball recipe I should use, I'm all ears. Thanks

Buy a used 11-87 with chokes take the $1400 saved and buy a container load of #8 Rem Gun Club, and enjoy!

Sorry bout that...it's all good. More I am researching this dude...the less I like what I see.

So you're condoning lying to members of the armed forces to avoid serving our country? Or taking guardianship of a minor to have sex with until they are legal??????? You know damn well you'd be frothing at the mouth calling for Holy Hell if it was a lib like Michael Moore or Al Franken with these allegations. As far as comparing draft dodging and pedophelia to Stern wanting to see a set of tits once and awhile........really? I view all men on their merits and morals...and you don't get a free pass just because we have similiar political beliefs.

Best I can say is check my links.

If he didn't wrap himself in God, Mother, Country, the flag and Apple Pie like he does now...I'd would kind of see your point...But he does, so he's just a simple douschebag.

Never been a fan of Ted...I've been hearing deplorable stories about him for years of being a draft dodger, anti-military and borderline pedophile....Until he found out he can make a buck off it (ala ammo, tv shows)....We can do better than this guy as a model conservative. We allegedly hold ourselves to a higher moral standard than this. "In 1978, Nugent began a relationship with seventeen-year-old Hawaii native Pele Massa. Due to the age difference they could not marry so Nugent joined Massa’s parents in signing documents to make himself her legal guardian. When she was finally "legal" ,he married the child whom he was named guardian.An arrangement that Spin magazine ranked in October 2000 as #63 on their list of the “100 Sleaziest Moments in Rock”." http://www.snopes.co...tary/nugent.asp Then there's this beauty from October 1977 Circus Magazine: Ted Nugent: "Ted was a young boy, appearing to be a hippie but quite opposite in fact, working hard and playing hard, playing rock and roll like a deviant. People would question my sanity, I played so much. So I got my notice to be in the draft. Do you think I was gonna lay down my guitar and go play army? Give me a break! I was busy doin’ it to it. I had a career Jack. If I was walkin’ around, hippying down, getting’ loaded and pickin’ my ass like your common curs, I’d say “Hey yeah, go in the army. Beats the poop out of scuffin’ around in the gutters.” But I wasn’t a gutter dog. I was a hard workin’, motherfuckin’ rock and roll musician. I got my physical notice 30 days prior to. Well, on that day I ceased cleansing my body. No more brushing my teeth, no more washing my hair, no baths, no soap, no water. Thirty days of debris build. I stopped shavin’ and I was 18, had a little scraggly beard, really looked like a hippie. I had long hair, and it started gettin’ kinky, matted up. Then two weeks before, I stopped eating any food with nutritional value. I just had chips, Pepsi, beer-stuff I never touched-buttered poop, little jars of Polish sausages, and I’d drink the syrup, I was this side of death, Then a week before, I stopped going to the bathroom. I did it in my pants. poop, piss the whole shot. My pants got crusted up. See, I approached the whole thing like, Ted Nugent, cool hard-workin’ dude, is gonna wreak havoc on these imbeciles in the armed forces. I’m gonna play their own game, and I’m gonna destroy ‘em. Now my whole body is crusted in poop and piss. I was ill. And three or four days before, I started stayin’ awake. I was close to death, but I was in control. I was extremely antidrug as I’ve always been, but I snorted some crystal methedrine. Talk about one wounded motherf*cker. A guy put up four lines, and it was for all four of us, but I didn’t know and I’m vacuuming that poop right up. I was a walking, talking hunk of human poop. I was six-foot-three of sin. So the guys took me down to the physical, and my nerves, my emotions were distraught. I was not a good person. I was wounded. But as painful and nauseous as it was – ‘cause I was really into bein’ clean and on the ball – I made gutter swine hippies look like football players. I was deviano. So I went in, and those guys in uniform couldn’t believe the smell. They were ridiculin’ me and pushin’ me around and I was cryin’, but all the time I was laughin’ to myself. When they stuck the needle in my arm for the blood test I passed out, and when I came to they were kicking me into the wall. Then they made everybody take off their pants, and I did, and this sergeant says, “Oh my God, put those back on! You f*cking swine you!” Then they had a urine test and I couldn’t piss, But my poop was just like ooze, man, so I poop in the cup and put it on the counter. I had poop on my hand and my arm. The guy almost puked. I was so proud. I knew I had these chumps beat. The last thing I remember was wakin’ up in the ear test booth and they were sweepin’ up. So I went home and cleaned up. They took a putty knife to me. I got the street rats out of my hair, ate some good steaks, beans, potatoes, cottage cheese, milk. A couple of days and I was ready to kick ass. And in the mail I got this big juicy 4-F. They’d call dead people before they’d call my ass. But you know the funny thing about it? I’d make an incredible army man. I’d be a colonel before you knew what hit you, and I’d have the baddest bunch of motherf*ckin’ killers you’d ever seen in my platoon. But I just wasn’t into it. I was too busy doin’ my own thing, you know?" http://www.debbieschlussel.com/48944/ted-nugent-deserved-to-be-in-jail-or-dead-long-before-obama-draft-dodging-multi-babydaddy/ No Ted, I don't know.

+1 that. Nagant is a perfect home hobbyist gun for refinishing. Strip the nasty commie shellac, restain, and oil.....shoot away. Just remember to clean after corrosive ammo.

....second gun purchase, Nice! You are well on your way with your addiction! Enjoy the ride fellow addict, and remember guns are like potato chips! OK...next week AR, week after Heavy Barel 700, week after that Garand...then comes 21 Woohoo! Handguns!!!

Thunder Mountain is certainly the best public clay facility around NNJ. Only issue is the prices sky rocketing over the past few years, but throwing lead around NJ has to be a pricey proposition. Ruth knows more about breaking a clay bird than any person I ever met. If she can't help your game, I suggest you take up tennis instead. Tip the pullers....they aren't getting rich on the wages, I assure you. PS~ Bruce offers a fair FFL transfer, too.

Mazel Tov! Shorten the stock on the 22 yet?

Can't...they're bad drunks....couple a shots in 'em and they start firing off at the mouth!

My AR at the family reunion. He always was....the black sheep of the family (sorry, I had to).

There's one you don't see every day! Thanks Dave

If Moses only turned left instead of right....this bedouin trash would still be eating camel crap and the world would be a much better place.
