    Bowen sights finally shipping

    I got a call Thursday saying that mine would ship Friday. I ordered them in either November or December of 2015. This will make eight sets. Nothing else comes close. Too bad they don't make the target version for the flat tops, but the Rough Country does suffice for them until they come up...

    Precision And Base Pins

    If your cylinders(?) are line bored, as your statement suggests, the throats and chambers of those cylinders would have been line bored using the base pin and locking bolt provided with the gun. Replacing any part of the equation will throw things askew.

    Rear sight blade?

    I was able to install a rear leaf from a Mark III on an Old Model Super Single Six. It only needed to have the little new model guide teat removed for installation. Looks and works great. Easy Fix!

    How do you clean up a 100 year old stock

    Minnwax Furniture Refinisher. Read the label, I think that you will be convinced. I have used it to clean up several dozen stocks prior to refinishing. The stuff is very mild, and actually good for the wood fibers. I use it with nitrile gloves and a Scotchbrite pad. Once done, the wood will...

    In that water depth, I'd be riding the mule. I guess we grow them bigger here in Texas.

    OM return condition

    [/color] Thank Heavens that you are not! Also, I need no such advise, because as I wrote above, I will not send them any gun that they might not want to return. While not an attorney, I have spent enough time in a courtroom as a case officer to know that by the time one enlists the services...

    OM return condition

    I suspect that this may have been bandied about before, but for anyone who might not have heard of this type of situation, I'll relate the experience of a friend of mine. He had a Ruger Mark II semiauto .22 handgun that would no longer function reliably. He sent it to Ruger for repair, and...

    SPF Some pistols that need to be traded off. All sold

    You are obviously very well versed in Ruger's Model Numbering System, but you may be be losing some other potential buyers or traders, who are not so well informed. I wish you well, but will now disappear as I have no idea what you are attempting to move.

    S&W K-22 4" 5 screw SPF

    Thanks! I had always been under the impression that all K-22's had the longer barrel. My brother has one and, they are great guns. The one sold here looks like my Model 18, except that mine is only a three screw. I wouldn't part with mine for anything. Someone got a great gun here.

    Looks like a Model 18. Did they designate those as K-22?
