Shot M1 Garand today with Duke EB...at Tacoma Sportsman Club. First couple shots with Irons at 100 yds were pretty good....then I started trying to hit the bullseye...who knows where those went.

1) Got a nice package in the mail. Here it is sandwiched between two Walkers for comparison:
 It's an Armi San Marco replica of a Colt Dragoon. The revolver is in beautiful condition, which is more than I can say for that towel . . . . 2) I loaded 200 rounds of 9mm. Gotta feed the beasts. _________________ Steve Benefactor Life Member, National Rifle Association Life Member, Second Amendment Foundation Patriot & Life Member, Gun Owners of America Life Member, Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms Legal Action Supporter, Firearms Policy Coalition Member, NAGR/NFGR Please support the organizations that support all of us.

I was gifted a Remington 870 Express Magnum in 12ga.
The "gun" came with a barrel, receiver and 2 bags full of parts. The previous owner said that it stop functioning and when he took it apart, he lost some of the pieces. To make a long story shorter......I inventoried all the parts and it turns out it was only missing the 2 trigger retaining pins. I just happen to have had those parts laying around in a misc. parts bin. I cleaned up all of the trigger group parts (they were all gunked up) I reassembled the trigger group, cleaned up the receiver, oiled everything up and reassembled..... Low and behold it functions perfectly. Apparently the "malfunction was simply the result of non-existent cleaning and maintenance. At some point, it will require some refinishing as there was some surface rust on the barrel from sitting out in the garage for years. But for now it is a perfectly functional Express Magnum. All in all..... A fun little project. |

Installed a recoil lug (Little Crow Gunworks) on 10/22 and bedded the action. Shoots noticeably better.
Groups went from quarter sized to dime sized at 50 yds. Suppressor got my mags super dirty and clogged so took them apart and cleaned them up nice. _________________ “The Democrats are playing you for a political chump and if you vote for them, not only are you a chump, you are a traitor to your race.”-Malcolm X |
