I’ll take the retired English gunmakers advice, rather than the retch from the idiot who blows up Springfields, thank you.

Best,
Ted

That's cold Ted lol

What's cold is Ted's empty larder. No luck filling it with imaginary wad-killed grouse shot with guns that won't shoot where they point.

But then again, I haven't blown up a Springfield in at least a week. Actually, I've never blown up a Springfield, but that's another detail Ted can't get right. Poor bastard.

My brother killed a dove with a wad.craziestvtjing I have ever seen.didnt know someone else had done that

He didn’t believe it when I said I did it when I was a kid. A few people have told me they have seen it. He still needs to get out more. My only point, from that discussion, was that grouse aren’t that hard to kill, something I stand by, obviously. They aren’t.

I’ve seen a few guns that for sure didn’t shoot where anybody looked. One was an A5 Light 12. One was a Red Label. One was a Gold Label. I also know of a Winchester model 100 in .308/with a flaw in the rifling that won’t hit the target, much less the bull at 100 yards. But, all these guns are exceptions, not the rule.

My Darnes shoot just fine, as do my other guns.

Best,
Ted

I’ve shot limits upon limits of chukars, Doves, sharptails, ruff grouse, ptarmigan, blue grouse, California quail, huns and bobwhites, pheasants, with my Darnes. None of them EVER had a regulation issue, and only 2 of them (my current Darne included) were built as southpaw guns. The only birds I haven’t shot a bunch of while using the Darnes has been waterfowl. Only because I’ve never taken a Darne waterfowling.
So, I’ll proclaim with the utmost confidence that BrentD always has been and always will be…..a weapons grade retard.

Funny, says right here you blew a Springfield up:

Puts you in rare company.

Not good company, however.

Best,

Carry on...

Your Darnes may have shot well, but the one I bought - it used to be Ted's - did not overlap patterns from the two barrels, regardless of the ammo used. Ted knows this. I sent him the pattern photos years ago.

The retard is the guy that has a gun that he claims he not to know is unregulated.

Interesting. I don't see the word springfield anywhere in that post. Do you?

Why don't you come grouse hunting with me this week? Let's see what you can do. My guess is you can't keep up with a 100 yrs old dog.

I've read quite a few articles and book chapters that discussed the heat treatment problems with some "Low Number Springfield Model of 1903 Rifles" Among the best of the books was William S. Brophy's "The Springfield 1903 Rifles". All of them go on to detail the serial number range in which the problematic rifles were found, both by Springfield Arsenal and Rock Island Arsenal. Later on, 03-A3 Springfields were also built by Smith Corona and Remington.

The CMP or Civilian Marksmanship Program has been responsible for selling military surplus rifles for many decades. On their Information Page is found a WARNING ON “LOW-NUMBER” M1903 SPRINGFIELDS--- which also goes on to inform the serial number range of the potentially defective rifles by the two arsenals that built them.

The Nutty Professor sold most of the remains of his blown up rifle (except for the fragments which presumably are still lodged in his head). He blamed everything except his own carelessness for the blow-up.

It seems to me that the time to be a stickler for little details would be during reloading, when you are dropping an overload of 5744 powder into a case. It all makes me wonder if that Darne that is alleged to be poorly regulated was simply patterned with carelessly reloaded ammo.

Now he's telling Ted he has a 100 year old dog. Anything to side-step and change the subject. That's pretty amazing when the Guiness Book of Records is investigating the probable false claim of the oldest dog, which was said to have lived to age 31. I wonder how old the Nutty Professor is in Libtard years???
