I get it...with the current political climate it's going to be hard for any gun business to survive here otherwise.

Princess Stevie wholeheartedly approves of these infringements upon the Gun Rights of law abiding citizens because he/she proudly supports and votes for the anti-gun Democrats who impose these laws. Here's the Princess using his/her Trump Derangement Syndrome earlier in this Thread as an excuse to exclusively support anti-gun Democrats:

Want a good laugh? Look at the GOP nominee for Gov. here in CO, Victor Marx who claims to have killed his first man at age 7 and to be an exorcist......I think I'll pass on supporting that.

Don't like it? I will generously increase my offer to you, not only am I willing to send you a very, very tiny package of sand for you to pound, I will include a short length of rope for you to piss up. wink

All my best Princess and an early happy anniversary to you and frAnk.

Princess Stevie pretends to be upset by a fringe GOP candidate who claims to have killed his first man at age 7, and also claims to be an exorcist... However, Colorado has no statute of limitations for murder, so this nutcase could be prosecuted for confessing to the crime... if it was even true. But our Princess needed another excuse for voting Democrat, even though it has long been apparent he/she is a closet Democrat... and a gunsmith who supports anti-gunners!

Would you hire and send your hard-earned money to a gender-bender Liberal Left gunsmith who supports anti-gun Democrats? I'd sooner scrap my broken gun!

What is demonstrably true is this nice little story about an illegal alien who raped and murdered a 2 year old girl in Virginia. But Democrats like Princess Stevie would never think to hold Biden, Harris, Mayorkis, and all Democrats responsible for illegally bringing these criminals into our country, and using taxpayer money to provide them food, housing, health care, etc. Trump was right again... countries emptied out their prisons and mental hospitals to dump the worst of their societies on us. If only this was a single isolated incident... but it isn't...

Will hundreds of stories like this stop Princess Stevie from supporting anti-gun Democrats???... Not on your life. Look no further to see why your adopted state of Colorado has been taken over by anti-gun Libtards. Look at the fools who vote for them... and then re-elect them after they attack the 2nd Amendment.

Note how Princess Stevie says almost everything on the books in his/her shop is a C&R gun over 50 years old. But several years ago, the Princess admitted right here to standing by like a spineless sheep while ATF Agents illegally photographed those Bound FFL ledger books. Other FFL's have successfully fought that illegal practice, but our Liberal Left Princess actually made excuses for allowing it to happen. See the Princess telling us about it starting here in Post# 506486

Posting my opinions in this reply is the very least I could do for Closet Democrat Princess Stevie after his/her generous offer to send sand and rope. You're very welcome Princess Stevie!

Lloyd,

Who are you using in the Springs for the transfer?

KDGJ: The Springs Armory. Way cheaper than my remaining options up here (& I have an associate that speaks highly of them).

Edit to add: Thanks Dr. Drew, I do remember that string fairly well (but this time I have a dog in the hunt so I read it a bit more closely). My...how time flies. The good news is that RST sent me a flat with every shot size I could ever hope to want (not cheap but...pretty nice!).

If the need ever arises where I would have to do some 2-inch reloading, I'm fairly confident that I could. I already have most of what I might need (primers, powders, shot, etc.) but I would have to learn how to do that rolled crimp.

FWIW: I'll have to be pretty enamored with this gun before I'd undertake all that (my 16 is already pretty convenient). If RST keeps loading them then I'll likely keep buying them. Hunting grouse for almost 2-months straight up north last year, I used maybe 3-4 boxes of 2 1/2-inch 16?

I do tend to hunt with several different firearms over that period (hammerguns, my 28, even pumps) so that's a factor as well.

Lloyd, I applaud your patience. It wasn’t long after I moved here a decade ago that I could see where all this was going. It wasn’t crazy like it is now but clearly crazy was coming. I got my C&R and haven’t looked back. I am out of state now and a couple of copies of it are in my brief case (just in case).

Earlier in the summer a Grade 3 Lewis called to me from the east coast. I pulled out a copy and stopped by the post office for a money order. The gun was on its way to my door in short order.

Think about it as you enjoy that new beauty.

Randy: Thankyou!

This has been coming for some time now. Sadly, it's not a complete surprise

If I thought I'd be doing any significant buying and selling I'd seriously consider a C&R. As it stands now, I'm arguably "all full up" and can't imagine needing anything else. I have also focused lately (last few years) on pre-1899 stuff to avoid all of this silliness...but I suppose every once in a while something might still come along (so all that extra patience will come in handy here now).
