      AMERICAN TACTICAL IMPORTS GSG FIREFLY .22lr

      Yup, I think that's a fair assessment. They were fun when they came out (when your other options were either bigger target .22s and maybe a handful of well made, but old, guns like the Beretta 70/71 series), but much better .22s have come out since.

      Cap and Ball cylinder conversion

      I can certainly confirm on the natural black powder lubes. I use a 50/50 lard (no salt) bees wax combo on my various military muzzle loaders and it makes it really easy to keep them clean. I can even fire a pretty substantial number of rounds through the rifles (well, substantial by ML...

      Looks like we lost another good one...

      I just caught the news. Stephen was a great guy and will be missed. Please help out with the GoFundMe if you can.

      Wolf Ammunition article

      That’s literally what the two guys who founded AEY did with Chinese ammo for an Afghan contact. They went to jail. But on the other hand, they got a movie made about them. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2005151/?ref_=ext_shr_lnk Granted, they were selling to Uncle Sam on a military contract for...

      Spring 2023 OPEN INGO SHOOT June 3rd @ProTEQ in Brazil!

      Sorry for the delayed reply. I discussed the timing for a fall shoot with the guys at ProTEQ, but unfortunately, due to a pretty busy couple of months, we just couldn't find a good day for it. So the next INGO Open Shoot at ProTEQ will be the one in Spring. That being said, we are still...

      Asking to See Papers

      Sometimes, gun owners are our own worst enemy. Here we are, on a gun forum, having a fellow gun owner arguing for a super strict, over reaching, interpretation of an unconstitutional law.

      Asking to See Papers

      Well, with that attitude, I certainly hope you aren't in law enforcement in any capacity. The issue here is that chief was WRONG. It (at the time) wasn't considered an SBR and needed no paperwork. If we have law enforcement officers, acting in an official capacity, just making up laws and then...

      Brazing or micro welding

      So I talked to AllenM and Javelin’s in Brownsburg and neither can do the work I need. Since several folks asked what I was trying to do, here are the 3 items I wanted done: 1. Braze front sight on a Colt 1872 repro (barrel shortened and recrowned, but no front sight) 2. Braze a front sight...

      Brazing or micro welding

      Any gunsmiths in the Indy area that do brazing or micro welding? I’ve got a couple of project that need that type of work, but I haven’t found anyone that can do it.

      Russian Berdan II reloading/shooting

      Very neat. I'll have to find some of that Puff-lon filler. I've been using kapok for my .577 Snider, 450/577 Martini Henry, 11x59R Gras, and 11.15x60R Mauser (.43 Mauser). I like the idea of have a lubricating function for the filler on top of taking up space in those huge old cases.

      Spring 2023 OPEN INGO SHOOT June 3rd @ProTEQ in Brazil!

      My nephew, but I'd like to think he's my friend as well. :):

      Spring 2023 OPEN INGO SHOOT June 3rd @ProTEQ in Brazil!

      I’ve recovered enough from my sunstroke/dehydration to post. It was a great event and it was good meeting new folks and seeing some of the regulars again. I hope everyone had fun and the range was looking pretty clean when we left (and I think my nephew and I were the last to leave). I’m...

      Well that is absolutely a good reason to miss it. Maybe you can come to the fall shoot.

      Form 1 Filing for your Brace - Need Help?

      I got my fingerprints done at Printscan the other day. I had the file back same day, so that parts went well. I asked the lady doing prints if she had been busy, and she said basically every day, every appointment is for ATF prints. So I guess a lot of people are filing.

      Any bullet casters here?
