    savage mod. 430 O/U

    I know this is not a ruger but I need some help. When firing the top barrel the gun starts to break open. The spring for the release lever seems a little weak to me. I have the gun disassembled but I cannot figure out how to remove the stem under the release lever so i can check out the release...

    striker fired versus hammer fired

    I am really a revolver guy but I have owned several striker fired pistols. My question is why do so many people like striker fired pistols? I have never owned a hammer fired pistol but have dry fired a couple and the trigger seems so much easier. I must be missing something here, but could it...

    Seating depth for double end wad cutter

    Thanks for your reply. I am going to have to dump mine and start over. I have 60 cases sitting on the bench with 3.1 grs. in each one. I think that I got that for a round nose cast bullet and after looking at that DEWC I thought to myself that bullet is going to be way to deep. Rugers are strong...

    Seating depth for double end wad cutter

    I can not find any information on seating depth for 32 caliber DEWC bullets. I will be reloading 32 H&R magnums with 98 grain DEWC bullets from Missouri Bullet Co. and 3.1 grains of Bullseye. Thank you for any replies. Bob

    Now That Ruger Owns Marlin ,Lever Gun???

    Hoping for a 32 mag. but would settle for a 38/357. Even a 30-30 would be useful. They wouldn't have to breath very hard to put new life into the Marlin lever gun. Marlins are so popular around here that you rarely find one for sale and if you do they are like $750.00 on up.

    Now That Ruger Owns Marlin ,Lever Gun???

    would like to see them make 327s that would shoot the other four cartridges or maybe a 357/38 or maybe both.

    reopen topic, Springfield 410 double won't open easy.

    After digging deeper into this 410 double I discover that it doe's have mechanical means to retract the fireing pins. The gun has been refinished and is clean as a pin inside. I think the cocking plunger has been replaced and it doe's not contact the cocking lever soon enough. The cocking...

    Springfield dbl. brl. 410 won't open after firing

    Really nice old double barrel, bought at an estate sale. After firing I have to break over my knee to get it open. Firing pins are not retracting. After removing the stock I find that there are no hammers and no mechanical means to retract the firing pins. The firing pins protrude from the...

    remove recoil pad from shotgun without wood damage.

    Wish I had thought of something like that because when I started I could not even detect the holes and when I finished I had two holes about half the diameter of the screwdriver shaft. Oh well at least my stock is tight now. Bob

    Thank you Highstandard and Woodperson, I did find the soft spots and removed the pad. I was not pushing hard enough the first time. I was able to tighten my stock. Thanks again. Bob

    remove recoil pad from shotgun without wood damage.

    Hope you don't mind question about an Ithica. Bought model 37 at an auction yesterday, it's in pretty good condition overall, but the stock is loose. It has a red ventilated recoil pad, a white spacer and a black spacer and I cannot find any holes for screws, so I am assuming that it is glued...
