I would agree with everything you wrote.

The tiny screw must connect the indicator to the tumbler and for it to work it must have a semi circular channel cut into the action body.

Seems rather silly to make such a cut and weaken the action at its most stressed part.

Not to be picky the that would be the sear pin, the trigger pin is located farther to the rear.


Oops! Steve, you got me I made a boo boo on that one. But I think I am correct on the hammer pin.


No need for Mea Culpa's FlyChamps...

Queen Stevie wasn't willing to admit that he couldn't tell the difference between a feather crotch black walnut blank that had no figure in the head area, and a finished stock made from thin-shelled walnut that had totally different grain and figure:





Queen Stevie's gun stock expertise can be seen here in post #560068 in this thread:

So why did you post incorrect information about the location of pins earlier Queen Stevie?

Looks like you could use either a little book learning, or some actual experience... or both!

My statement was correct but worded differently than Hugh made his statement.

Must suck being as dumb as Billie k.

Still dumb.

Still wrong, still Billie k.

I think Billie is upset because his complete lack of experience has been exposed.

Book smart Billie is really not nearly as smart as he would like the board to think.

Right Queen Stevie... and that's why Hugh corrected you. Because he knew you were correct.

It doesn't take much book learned knowledge to see the difference between feather crotch black walnut and thin shell walnut with totally different grain and figure either. Even after I explained the differences to you, you still were too dumb to tell. You really showed all of us your gun stock expertise there too.

Tell us, is it better to be book smart... or perpetually dumb like you are?

I think Billie k is upset he because tried proving me wrong in the stock blank thread and failed miserably. Poor little Billie k and his fragile ego.

Please point out exactly what I wrote that was wrong. The pin I identified is indeed the sear pin and the trigger pin is indeed to the rear but I did not state as Hugh did that it is located in the triggerplate.

Book read Billie k....still wrong, still dumb, still Billie k.

You didn't prove me wrong in the recent stock blank thread Queen Stevie.

You merely proved that you believed a number of internet sources that incorrectly define rift sawn lumber.

Those sources say that rift sawn lumber is cut perpendicular to the growth rings, yet they also say that rift sawn lumber shows end grain 30 to 60 degrees to the faces of the board or blank. You say that 45 degrees is the ideal. You cannot have it both ways... unless you are just too dumb to think, and are just a parrot.

That isn't perpendicular to the growth rings, but you are too stupid to see the discrepancy. So tell us more about all of your practical experience in farming out actual gunsmithing work, since you have no book learned knowledge.

As I thought....you could not point out anything incorrect in my statement in this post and you are still wrong about rift cut stock blanks.

My favorite part of that exchange was when you said KY Jon was wrong. He has forgotten more about stocking guns and wood blanks than you will ever know. Jon learned through doing, something you do not have the skill set for.

Book smart Billie k, but never stocked a gun. Boy are we lucky an expert such as yourself graces us with your hard gained knowledge.

What a poser.

You say that I have never stocked a gun, but that is totally untrue. KY Jon was absolutely wrong when he repeated the incorrect definition of rift sawn lumber as having the growth rings 30 to 60 degrees to the face of the board or blank. The rest of his statement was correct, and I said so.

Meanwhile, we have you posing as a gunsmith when you screwed up and openly admitted to farming out much of the work you charge customers to do to real gunsmiths.... while you spend all day here showing us how dumb you really are.

Easy to see just who is the poseur.
