  1. Its interesting it came loose so easily. Most Japanese Barreled receivers are very tight.

     

    I have read where most people make a relief cut in the barrel in a lathe so they can screw out the barrel and not risk cracking the receiver

  2. If you don't mind this is my opinion on the subject.

     

    If you can do the work yourself or have someone you trust that can do the work then re-barreling to 7x57 would be the best option.

     

    If you do not have the ability to do the work yourself then leaving it in 7.65x53 becomes the best option.

     

    Its hard for me to recommend someone paying $300- $400 dollars to get the gun re-barreled.

     

    Plus...

    Please understand that the old barrel has been on the receiver for over 100 years and its possible to crack the receiver removing the barrel. It doesn't happen often but a lot of people would take an old receiver and cut the barrel with a lathe. Doing that ruins the old barrel in some cases. but its better than ruining a receiver.


  3. I actually read a story that claimed The shooter was a $2000 a night male prostitute but as he got older his clients didn't want to pay him the big bucks.

     

    The same article claimed His mother was extremely violent, she constantly threatened his fathers life in front of him and his siblings .

     

    I don't believe this guy had mental issues, I think he is a product of a liberal society and race baiting.

  4. This may upset some people but here's my take on the shooting.

     

    Personally I think mental illness is used to many times as an excuse to describe the actions of evil people.

     

    The shooter planned this attack for a long time. Its premeditated murder by a No talent loser that has been passed along in his career because he was black and gay.

     

    We don't need lists or background checks or FOID cards. People with violent intent will act violently no matter what we do.

  5. Farraken says we need to put down the American Flag.

     

    The flag they want to ban is the Battle flag for the Army of Virginia, which is the cross of Saint Andrew, a Christian symbol.

     

    The true flag of the confederacy is almost never shown or flown; it has four bars and one star symbolizing the four divisions of Israel under one G-d

  6. Well FC us poor ole people just don't seem to count in DC. I'm surprised the thing was defeated after all the bill would have only sent the rest of our jobs out of the country and opened the borders even worse than they are now.

     

    Rep Paul Ryan said we could read the bill after it was passed, all seems reasonable doesn't it?

     

    Sarcasm off....

  7. No money and health problems have stopped me in my tracks. I never was a collector but i certainly dreamed a lot. I would have liked to have bought military surplus rifles like they did after WWII or after WWI

     

    How many mosin nagants were bought for $1.75 after WWI

     

    My dads first rifle was a Stevens Favorite purcashed through the mail for $1.75 in 1933. No BS 4473 forms or FOID cards or background checks.

     

    Its a shame he let that go before I was born. I would have liked to have had it as a keepsake.

     

    Makes me wonder what happened to our country. Seems like were headed in the worng direction.

  8. You can accuse me of being a bible thumper but I see GOD intervening in the USA in the near future.

     

    Remember Sodom and Gomorrah?

     

    GOD didn't give them a pass and I don't see the USA getting a pass either. The supreme court is going to rule that gay marriage is the law of the land this year and I see GODS judgment soon to follow.

     

    By the way I'm not going to apologize for my beliefs either. I was raised with the beliefs that men make mistakes and must come to God through Christ but there is one thing you don't do and that's spit on Gods word.

     

    The USA is about to spit on Gods word. Nations fall when they fall from Grace and we about to fall from grace.

     

    Like I said my opinion, my belief, no apologies!

  9. They allow according to the list provided a 45-70. What is the change in the rules? Did they add rifles to the hunting list or what? I quit hunting years ago because of nonsense like this; I live in a shotgun only state.

     

    Sounds like an old trap door or single shot rifle in a straight wall cartridge could be made up if you have the action
