Re: Leather facing a recoil pad

That Super 77 does say it has a transparency when dry, but I don't see it available in anything other than aerosol I couldn't seem to find it available in any other application methods. Overspray could be an issue with aerosol.

Re: Jug choke
damascus

Greg if you are talking about the type of reamers in the photograph, I would not in any circumstances use this type of reamer for a gun bore. This type of reamer I know as a Repair reamer sometimes called a "spill bore reamer" on this side of the pond used to adjust motor pulley bores and hole sizes because of their construction they are not truly round because the cutting blades and the slope the blade runs in the reamer body are cut separately and not ground true as one unit because of its design. If you try to ream a a long bore the reamer will wander also their finish leaves a lot to be desired. These reamers are quick fix engineering items and work extremely well for what they where designed for.

Re: krupp barrels

Ed, is the topic Dave Suponski's Parker barrel study???... or Model 12 Nickel Steel???... or 1937 Winchester Proof Steel??? Or perhaps the subject is the Preacher's penchant for falsehoods and putting words in other folk's mouth.
I'm not really expecting a truthful reply to my challenge. If past history is any indicator of future performance, we'll probably be treated to some scripture verses, nasty comments about acid eating my soul, or pictures of poor Guatemalan kids and dead dogs. But that's OK. I just don't want people thinking we should draw conclusions about shotgun barrel strength or compositions from woefully insufficient samples and testing. Or perhaps the Preacher would ask us to also accept a Covid19 vaccine if it had been tested for safety and efficacy on one monkey. Who knows, that just might work if he posted those results with a bunch of copy and paste vintage advertisements featuring doctors smoking Chesterfields and Lucky Strikes.

Re: ah foxie fox

thank you gil...my new led lighting helps...
and it is a beautiful gun...everything a double gun should be...
have read that ah fox was so embarrassed that he was forced to produce a plain gun, that he refused to have his name on it...shortly after that he left the company in 1911...and he then went out and started a high end automobile assembly plant...which failed in 1923...interesting guy...wonder what he did after 1923 until 1945, when he passed over...went bird hunting a lot, i hope...

Thanks Steve and Mike. I’m going to try the die. Either metal works for me but have a couple tons of 1018 and not much 12L14, not that buying either is big deal for screw! Screws are lots of work but in the end worth it. Thanks for info Steve it’s appreciated. Bob

Re: The Over Deer

Odd, that brass looks like it has been reloaded. The misfired cartridge sat in a stew of rain water, pine straw and willow oak leaves for two weeks. I'm sure the tannins/tannic acid did a lot for the cosmetics of the brass. He was likely referring to the obvious junction of case web and case body that looks like the case has been resized. The primer is also flattened, as if it's actually a fired primer. I have a few boxes of that same ammunition, so I opened one and looked. The Remington primers in the new cartridges look exactly like the one pictured, without of course the firing pin strike. They are seated as shown. The web junction is also evident. The pictured cartridge is to my satisfaction a misfired factory round.

Re: What a difference a good cleaning makes

I want one large enough to hold a double gun receiver Well, don't get suckered like I did. I bought one off of ebay that was heated, timer, etc. Held a gallon for capacity. But it wasn't nearly as powerful as claimed and the price was too good to be true. I've been stalking for one at the university surplus but no luck yet.

Re: Loss of Bluing at Muzzle

that's good advice on the gun and a great analogy on the ducks. My introduction to duck hunting was shooting at woodies on the sloughs off the Bogue Chitto River as a boy. Didn't get a chance to hunt 'big ducks' in the rice fields until college.
For me, a morning of woodies screaming in at dawn followed by mallards funneling down into the flooded timber is hard to beat.

It is amazing how much information can be found out there if you only look! I am sure I will be doing more articles like this.
Also, if anyone ever wants to sell or trade a 16g Genez pinfire (or any other size) let me know!

Re: Spanish doubles and soft steel
KY Jon

The Lewis is my first choice but this one is only 30” at 7 pounds, ten ounces, 1/2&3/4 choke. Should be good with a good bismuth load. The AYAs are backup options. Another board member won another 3” gun I was bidding on in the last sealed bid auction. Don’t know who beat me on the other couple 3” doubles. Sealed bid auctions are such a weird thing. Bid too well and win them all which you might regret or bid low and regret it because you lost them all.

That was a sad looking gun when you started out. Came out nice. Don’t let the riffraff get you down. They only appreciate a true untouched Mossberg 500.

At 75 years old, I would kill to be able to wear out, or even break in, the boots in my closet, especially the Filson Uplanders that I bought before I had about five back surgeries and a total fusion. I can still walk, but I can't run or hunt birds. Retail $375.00
