    DIY Cylinder Jig

    I built this jig for when I was refurbing Six Series revolvers. Pretty easy to do for a DYIer. I used a spare ejector rod and spare ejector. Thread the ejector rod shank 12-28, find a washer and nut that fits and you'er done. Take the cylinder out and dissemble it. Unscrew the ejector rod...

    Antler sheds

    Noticed an odd shape and color at the base of one of my trees at my back boundary yesterday. Went out and found this laying there. My question, and I think I know the answer; what is the likelihood that the other one is close by? Next nice day I'll go out and roam around to see what I can...

    Trade Mark III Frame/Mark II Receiver

    I'm not going to try to marry the Mark II Barrel/Receiver to the Mark III frame. I would like to trade either one to make a matching gun. Trade Stainless Mark II upper (it is a modified KMK6) with a Blued bolt for a Mark III complete upper ....OR.... Trade Stainless Mark III complete Frame...

    USMC Marked Security Six??

    K.Funk - you wrote "The letter stated that the revolver was sent to Ellet Bros. Distributor." That could mean that it was an overrun gun from the contract with the USMC or the US .gov section that bought things for the military. The original owner very well could have carried it when flying...

    I resisted temptation

    Hankus, check into any local community colleges or vocational-technical schools. I don't think they have an age limit to enroll. You might feel odd with the other students being younger but you'll learn what you want to learn AND you might be able to set a good example to the younger ones that...

    Screw size info for you

    If you have a tap and die set, estimate the size and try putting the tap in it to see it if fits or not. And there are also thread gauges that are made for very small holes to find the size. Google "Small hole thread gauge" and you'll find them, Amazon has a bunch of different sets/styles...

    OM .30 Carbine- Custom Ideas

    I'm a Ruger Double Action collector but I do have Single Actions also, including a .30 Blackhawk (which I love to shoot). I vote for either reloading (lighter loads) or getting a .32-20 or .327 Mag cylinder. Then you'll have the best of both worlds.

    Screw size info for you

    It makes things a lot easier when you have a screw or screws that you don't know the size. Way back when, gun makers used some (my opinion) really odd size screws. But they probably weren't odd sized for them. Then as time went on, sizes and threads were standardized (think SAE and such) so...
