Probably in vain, but looking to buy a complete ambidextrous thumb safety in decent working shape for an old, all steel full-sized EAA Witness 9x19. Located in Lebanon, IN. Have cash and/or lots of items to trade if you'd prefer.
Thanks for looking!
Years ago, I picked up a nearly new Norinco ATD .22 with a broken extractor 'finger' for a short song ($35). The seller attributed the break to it being "Chinese junk", but disassembly showed that he'd failed to clean the gunk from underneath it properly which caused it to stop pivoting as it...
Three (3) Pietta C&B revolvers. All are .44 cal. and steel framed.
1. 1858 Remington NM Army. Slightly oversized grip and heavier frame than their other models. Purchased from Dixie Gun Works with the use of a .45 Colt conversion cylinder in mind. Lost interest in CAS-type games and never...
While rearranging some of the shelves in our basement this AM I ran across three GI ammo cans with no labels. As I usually mark all of these with a caliber label, I opened them to see what was inside.
One is filled with boxes of Federal-made M882 ball, headstamped "FC - 96". I did some web...
Just received a new flyer/catalog from CTD. Very strange, IMO. It lists 6 pages of ammo and none of the items has a price listed for it! Order a "Pig in a poke"? I don't think so.
They also have assorted magazines on 2 pages with the same blank where the price is supposed to be.
Any...
Chiappa is now making a .22 LR replica of the late production M1 carbines! Listed under their "Citadel" series on the Legacy Sports (exclusive importer) website. Holt Bodinson did a write-up on it in his "Rimfires" column in "Guns" magazine and now I really want to check one out.
Just what I...
Getting some flack from a few "friends" on FB after I mentioned that I keep an Emergency/HD rig prepared. When asked what that was and what it consisted of, I answered truthfully. "Paranoid" has been about the mildest epithet from the Pollyanna faction.
I put one together after reading one of...
Anyone else see the article headlined "Controversial tactic used in 2 Bush-era gun probes" on page A5 of today's (Red) "Star"? Sorry, but I don't have a link to include. We Old Farts still want something to take into the john with our morning coffee and to line the trash cans with, so we still...
A reliable referrence source for determining the approximate current market value for several of the unused, high quality knives I've accumulated over the years?
Want to liquidate them to help finance a Kimber Solo Carry. Any and all help and advice much appreciated!
Looking for a complete, servicable Lee Enfield No. 4 action. Want it to build a .45 ACP carbine from a Rhineland conversion kit. Cosmetics not a particular issue, so long as all necessary parts are present and any pitting is minor. Will consider a beater rifle or barreled action with a...
Just ordered a set of Williams Firesights from Brownell's for the old M-60 my dad left me. It's been languishing in the safe for years because my now bifocal-clad eyes and its stock open irons don't work well together anymore. Hoping that they'll make the same kind of difference on it as FO...
Saw an article in "Guns" that Marble Arms is about to introduce a new "Game Getter" and one that doesn't require the "AOW" license from BATFE!
Apparently, they unveiled it at this year's SHOT show and are taking reservation orders and deposits for delivery late this summer. Given what a nice...
I bought a Beretta Neos shortly after they were introduced several years back. I was looking for an all-around field/recreational RF semiauto: something versatile, a little "different", relatively inexpensive, and more LH-friendly than the more usual platforms like the Ruger and Buckmark...
A couple of days ago my wife was getting ready to go to work (about 5:45 AM) and heard a commotion out in the side yard. She went out to see what was going on and found a coyote menacing the neighbor's cat and its kittens. When she attempted to shoo it off, it advanced, teeth bared and snarling...

I'm another who found out about this site on THR. Wish that I'd known about it sooner!
I'm a member of the Crawfordsville Gun Club and the NRA. I've been a shooter and "accumulator" most of my life. I reload a good deal of my handgun and rifle ammo and have a keen interest in the mechanics...
