      Talk me into a 45-70 single shot.....

      I own several different ones, Sharps, High Walls, Rolling Blocks, and Trapdoors. My like is the Trapdoor, High Wall, Rolling Block, and then the Sharps. Carbines are easy to carry hunting but hurt from both ends when fired. The Trapdoor will have the most history for the USA but the Rolling...

      Staccato CS

      I carried a 10 mm STI 6" barreled 2011 as my last 1911 type when Artheritis hit my hands. Extended mag gave me 21 rounds of 10 mm. Build and finish was great.

      2024 Flint vs Cap thread

      I use a Kibler SMR in .45 and have not lost a single deer. You pay for the kit but get one of the best Flintlock locks made. I don't see any different shooting either caps or flint as both have their small things you need to do to shoot good. Right now Kibler has 3 rifle kits in most calibers...

      Weapon retention and/or grappling skills

      It is much more intense and you learn some moves that you are not shown in the states or maybe not shown at all now. I was shown a move to stop someone grabbing your gun that breaks the elbow and dislocates the shoulder in one flowing move.

      Weapon retention and/or grappling skills

      Some of the best training I have seen was in Krav Maga in classes in Israel. It is a real mix of moves that work against an armed person in close hand to hand. The big drawback to any skill learned if you don't practice them, you lose the reaction needed to perform them right.

      An Overdue Discussion on .45 Auto

      It was my dad's fault!!!!! Started a trap line back in 1953 and dad did not have a .22 pistol so he handed a US Government prop Remington-Rand to this 8 year old incase a Bob Cat was in a trap. Carried a 1911 in .45 ACP for 50 plus years till I got a 2011 STI 10 mm. Recoil got my hands so now...

      45-70 QUESTION

      Lever action use a 405 LNFP. The bullet will not act like a 5.56. Shooting a 300 gr is just a big .45 Colt. I can't tell you how much high over target you hold. I hold on at 100 yards, I move my tang sight each time I want to change the distance. If you are not reloading you can get some...

      Massad Ayoob says don't release slide on empty chamber.

      Gunny never said a word about it while training young recruits. I don't remember Mr. Browning saying anything about it. If the inventor and a man that carried a 1911 through a war, a police action, and what ever Vietnam is called, did not say anything about dropping the slide why worry about it?

      I hit the 50 items in my mail which has saved me several hundred dollars as I can't seen to delete the mail box items to get under 50. I really think it is all the wifes doing so she has more money to buy her items needed to make quilts. Anyone else ran into this, if so, will it let me buy...
