Hi Phil, hope your "adios" doesn't mean your quitting. I have enjoyed shooting and (occassionally) Squading with you for the last 50+ years. I...
If i took the choke tube out would i have a .727 choke or a cylinder bore?
i have a Perazzi that money maker warped the barrel on when they put a new rib on it. Wilkinson straightened it out by backboring the barrel. He...
I found the wiggle factor was eliminated by un hooking the auto indexer and index by hand.
having been down that road he will fix them when he gets tired of running into things.
Look into silver plating. did my tm1 in 1974 and is still good.
Saw it happen one time with 2 shooters on the same squad. one a release trigger and one a regular trigger. that first shot was really entertaining....
Watched 2 guys pick up the wrong guns. One was a pull trigger and one was a release trigger. next to each other. first shot from both was something...
for the amount of work and the cosmetic damage to the gun for the very little wt. it would remove, i would forget it.
No contest. If think super targets smelled bad, you should have smelled one after reloading it.
May have been not locked up to begin with. My P gun will hold the forearm on even if not locked on.
Was shooting in the low to middle 90's with a 32" Belgian Browning O/U. Bought a new TM1 that a guy had won. He would not let me shoot it as was NIB....
only other shell equal to them was the original Winchester super target paper shell from the early 70's.
I shot a lot of them. Found that reloads would sometimes separate and part of hull would stick in barrel. Checked gun after every shot. Would never...
Just read this and promptly threw up.
Had to redo the right eye with a different lense.
Had both done. from 20/400 to 20/40 in both eyes. NEW WORLD!!! MAKE SURE YOU TELL THE SURGEON IF YOU HAVE HAD LASIK. Makes a difference in the...
I tried hip shooting one time. Shot 50 low house skeet targets from station 7. Went 0-50. Ray Charles could do that. ended my hip shooting career.
Be curious how you do. Best hip shooter i ever saw was Ray Stafford. Ask Dan Bonillas how good Ray is if he remembers.
I feel your pain. Destroyed my right shoulder in a fall. Not fixable. Cannot raise arm above shoulder. Damaged left shoulder to where can't hold the...
On a serious note i have always thought everyone should have their blood type tatood on themselves. On collar bone?
super sore arm for about 4 days.
Your avatar says your the "village idiot" I think you have lost that title to Ocasio Cortez. Sorry jmo
Never happen. I requested and received reductions from 27 yd.(30 years) to the 21. Still not winning but can at least see most of my misses now. Bad...
Bet that crosses your eyes when you swallow it. What % of vinegar do you use??
I am 81 and never declare Sr. vet. either. Part of the reason being there are numerous very good sr. vet shooters including some all americans i...
Good grief! My 1969 Perazzi TM1 is a relic?? Shoot it at least 2 times a week since i bought it new. about 1,500,000 rounds through it and still...
How in the world do you fit that into a standard gun rack?? LOL
Brad, I have a terrible canting problem that i have been unable to solve on a regular basis. 73 years experience so think i should know better. Less...
this could depend on weather the person is hitting the target. If he is you cannot do a thing about it. Not good and the person will probably be...
Slightly used MEC 200 primer tray. $70.00 + shipping.
would think you would tend to shoot the wad through the pattern disbursing it.
first thing i would do is disconnect the auto indexer and eliminate the wobble by indexing by hand. gud luk
Seem to remember a shot that was made in Mexico that came in a plastic bag with a wire tie that was around $2.50 per bag. Think Gene Sears was tied...
Don't stand in the way. You will be killed in the stampede.
Only if you like to hit your thumb with a hammer. was done with fun after the 1st 25.
Ithica TM1. Have one with 1,500,000 through it and still going strong. Bought new in about 1971.
I have found best way to stop this stuff is tell person you will ship gun after the check clears HIS bank and not yours. Never fails.
When i was in the business you could take the price/lb. X 25 and add$1 and that was truck load price. The shot market never really followed the price...
Would be a nice project gun for someone. I have several Ithica TM1's and not need another. Gud Luk
Thank you for this. I am also of his age and remember all of this also.Brought a tear to my eye reading this and remembering those days. Thanx
For sale: 1976-2016 average books. All seem to be in excellent shape. $75.00 + shipping. 2011,2013, 2014 missing. Will consider any reasonable...
If that is true it will end my 60+ year shooting career. Can't see them. I prefer black which you can never find.
98.83 16 yd., 94.7 dbls. same year.
You can have the same type of thing tossing loaded shells into a bucket. Had 2 hit base to base and 1 went off. Blew side out of shell and rained...
sorry. not put my post into yours on purpose.
Well known Colorado couple a few years ago were 198 straight. one missed 199th and the other missed 200th. Sympathy miss??? who knows.
twice i have missed the 1st and 200th target in a 200 bird race.
Ask Dan Bonillas how good Ray is from the hip.
