I don't recall if the 66 had the floating chamber or not but it may well have. But I do know that the Remington 550-1 that was built for quite some time following WW2 was the first to have it. It was the last of the 'Walnut and steel" Remington semi-autos before the start of the potmetal and...

Since I'm not quite sure exactly what the problem is except for the trouble with your vision you've had so much 'fun' with in the recent past it's difficult for me to make an intelligent comment or suggestion. But since I'm not best known for intelligence I'll sail boldly forth into the fog. ;-)...

More correspondance---- ----with the same buddy as in the post above with a mutual friend stepping in to comment. Much like myself he has had a lot of experience hunting with airguns. Hope someone is getting some value from this! Tom...

A friend wrote today with the following question: <Does you remember how the RWS 14 Grain Meisterkugeln Match Flat Nose pellets shoot? They are about $5.00 cheaper per 500 than the Crosman Premiers in the 22 caliber. That's from MidwayUSA. > Since I'm lazy and like to recycle such...

Actually I was just rushed at the time. BUT-----since you asked------- As a lifetime airgunning enthusiast and supporter I am as curious and lustfull of big bores as the next guy. Unfortunately I'm also a pragmatist. Because of, and ONLY because of, airgunnings public perception as a 'toy'...

After answering someone on a rimfire board seeking airgun advice it dawned on me that my reply might serve to answer similar needs here. So below is 'Airgunning 101'. Tom *************************************************************** Plinking pest birds like Starlings off of your...

I we're talking big-bore air rifles then Dennis Quackenbush in Missouri is your man. Google him. Tom

I couldn't get the site you posted to load on this charcoal powered Ozark ISP so I'm winging it a bit! :cry: I've owned--or own--virtually evey Crosman pistol ever made. The 1377/1322 series CAN be good! "Can be" because the late models have a *&^%$% plastic breech that has all the rigidty...

Hope this hasn't been posted before but since I just found it here 'tis anyway. Two canoes from natural materials by an 18 year old English lad enamored of primitive crafts. His 1st one http://www.jonsbushcraft.com/building%20a%20canoe.htm is admittedly a bit crude----but it floats! The 2nd...

OSHA=Officious $hit Heads Anonymous. Beaucracy on steroids. :evil:

Shop & tool pics Thanks to Bear for asking and to Keith & Tick for the pics. I see a LOT of old tools that I too have, on the deck, in the shop and in the barn. It's a shame that the knowledge (and practised expertise) of how to use them is a vanishing art. I was raised by a carpenter who WAS...

<Try that in Kansas or Georgia or most other places. Except for the Sesame Street Generation i'd think that SOMEONE would get their 12 ga out of the closet and fight back. Hopefully..... > I'm not so sure about that any more Piper. :( Oh, perhaps a few geezers such as those on this board...

B-20/R-9 Even the ad admits it's a knock-off of the Beeman R-9 built for them by the German firm of Hans Weirauch. Why buy a Cinese copy when you can have the real thing? As Bear pointed out the difference is so little when spread over the lifetime of the gun that it won't amount to a hill...

SCOTUS Heller Decision A highly interesting and broad ranging thread. In which I am compelled to add my dos centavos. As someting of an amatuer Constitutional student I feel that I must point out by what a slim margin the Heller decision was won. That alone should squelch premature...

May I just say AMEN to your entire post?

No----for this crowd you nailed it the 1st time Jack. :wink:
