  1. Gunsmith needed near Perry/Warner Robins

    Sohler Firearms on Watson. I haven't had any work done, but he seems like a really nice guy. A veteran also. He said he works on rifles and handguns. Certified gunsmith also.

  2. Thompson Encore

    Could be a headspace issue. If chamber is too deep, the firing pin can't reach far enough. I had a 260 rem barrel from them that had same problem. Finally convinced them it was defective and they gave me a new barrel. Don't know if S&W are still doing warranty for them or not. Take the...

    So what do you do when it’s hot as heck outside? Melt some Cosmoline…

    Every time I see a Bren discussed, it reminds me of the movie, I think was Lock Stock and 2 Smoking barrels. Guy comes out with Bren with the mag loading from top. Other guys ask him what is that likely with a few expletives. He said "it's me Bren gun". Always found that line funny. Rosewood

    Glock scratches- voice your opinion

    Well that is one thing smith has over glock, their slides are nitrided stainless.

    Glock scratches- voice your opinion

    Aren't the Glock slides nitride coated stainless? Rusting shouldn't be an issue even with a scratch under normal maintenance.

  6. Replacing a Recoil Spring

    One thing folks overlook is increasing the recoil spring may reduce how hard the slide slams into the frame, but it also increases how hard the slide shuts and puts a beaten on the take down pin and other parts that stop that forward motion. That is why certain cartridges come with...

  7. Contender front sight

    Your rear sight may be wrong. Seems like they are different ones for different cartridges. Is your front base sight welded on? Or screwed on? The ones I have that are welded (all older 10" barrels), are permanent, there is no replacing the sight. The pinned ones have a screw on base which...

  8. Barrel was much shorter than advertised….😳

    A cleaning rod and a sharpie or a piece of tape works well also.

  9. Salt Bath Nitriding

    I am thinking it is a Black Oxide that he is referring to, but who knows. Rosewood

  10. Salt Bath Nitriding

    Not finding anything from Birchwood Casey. Could it be another manufacturer? Thanks, Rosewood

  11. Salt Bath Nitriding

    Really, I didn't know there were kits out there. Been wanting to do several guns and it seemed too much trouble to setup and buy the chemicals. Google, here I come. Rosewood

  12. Barrel was much shorter than advertised….😳

    I can't resist: That's what she said! Barrel length is measured by the ATF by dropping a 16" rod into the barrel with the breech closed and if it sticks out, you are in trouble. Rosewood

  13. Need some knowledge

    If it is a new gun, I would be surprised it isn't already drilled and tapped. Most every shotgun I have looked at in the last several years is already done at factory. Rosewood

  14. Re-chambering single shot from 2 3/4 to 3 inch?

    Not sure about the profile of the barrel, but that same gun and likely most of the chamber to the end of the pivot point on the barrel is the same for a 12gauge. If it is the same as the 12 to that point, I don't think reaming to 3" is going to be a problem. However, the cost of a reamer...

  15. Mineral Spirits on Firearm Non-Metal Parts

    Marlin 60 trigger guard was the one that I had experience with melting with carb cleaner. Rosewood

  16. Mineral Spirits on Firearm Non-Metal Parts

    Right in the paint section. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Klean-Strip-Odorless-Mineral-Spirits-Household-Paint-Thinners-Solvents-1-Gallon/17208810 Rosewood

  17. Mineral Spirits on Firearm Non-Metal Parts

    Gun Screws

    I didn't think about Byron, they have a huge selection of screws and isn't too far away. May make a field trip down there on one of the scooters in the beautiful weather just to peruse. :)

    Gun Screws

    Yeah, the OP's picture was 5 drawers, so now I have seen it. I noted the drawer model number and will be asking my store to ask the screw vendor about adding it. Thanks, Rosewood
