    Stacking 40 dollar moderators

    Would this work for 100 fpe on a 28 inch barrel where pressure has dropped due to the volume of the longer barrel. Take 2 Buck Rail 30 caliber moderators, enclose them in a 1.65 OD x 1.58 ID aluminum tube using JBWeld. On each end place a drilled out 1-1/2” fender washer drilled out for exit...

    22 caliber Webley and rifled barrel Schofield revolvers

    I keep checking on the internet and “what’s new” publications to see when these products will be avialable. No one is making the rifled barrel Schofield that I know of, however the Webley and Scott 22 has been in service in England for close to a couple years. Dealers need to get their heads...

    Set screw stripped and suck in my thread adapter, pickle juice once again to the rescue

    This is the 2nd time I have used this technique to remove either a broken tap or stuck set screw from aluminum. If you break a tap off in aluminum, boil the aluminum part in water and Alum . It will dissolve the steel part and not harm the aluminum, with the exception that it will remove...
