Man time goes fast. Thanks again for the comments and the welcome back. This has been a crazy busy summer for us. I always enjoyed the people on this forum, but don't do as much Ruger'n as I used to. The forum I tend to be on more these days is the BushcraftUSA forum. Lots of good people there...

Just came back to the forum after many years of being way and now I see this. That makes me sad to hear that he has passed on. We had a lot of good conversations of the years and a few good phone conversations as well. Dang! I am sorry to hear about this and to hear about it so long after his...

Just doing my every few years check in. LOL!!! My wife was cooking the Shrimp Scampi Linguini that I had submitted to the Ruger Forum Cookbook ten years ago, and it made me think of the forum. I had a lot of good contacts and friends through this forum and often think of coming back, but do not...

I am thinking about getting a metal detector in the next month. I would like it for finding relics or whatever around my farm. This place was just land when we bought it two years ago. I am building a house on it now. Our records go back to having structures on it starting around 1880-1890. All...

I would like the 5.5", however maybe I could get your 7.5" shortened if we could work our a good deal. Send me a PM with what you are thinking. Thanks

I have had the hankering to try a birdshead grip frame for a long time. I would like one that will fit a New Model Blackhawk. Could be either stainless steel , blued steel, or brass. Thanks Greebe

I have wanted a Ruger Old Army since early 2000. I know they have been discontinued since 2008, but I am hoping that someone might have one here. I would like the stainless 5-1/2" barrel fixed sight version like below. I would be open to trades as well as a cash deal. I have some other...

We are not on a lake. The lakes are a little too touristy for us. We have a pretty nice piece of property with a creak through the middle.

Yep we moved to WV bought a house and then bought land up in northern MN. Sold the house in WV almost two years ago and then moved up here and camped in a tent for almost 5 months as we were building a house. :roll: Our family thought we were a little crazy, but hey we are. Hehe. We were living...

It is coming along. Slows things down with little kids in the house. :shock: It will be cool once we are finished, to be able to see all the work I have done.

So will you shoot it in a .45 Colt cylinder?

Wow, it has been a long time (3 years?) since I visited this forum. Part of that has been building a house and living it in the same time. Our place is out on some property in the country and we have been living primitively until this new years eve when I got the solar power on line and also...

Hey guys, My brother called me today about a Ruger MK-II that he picked up a while back that does not fall in the serial number series listed on Ruger's site. Supposedly it might have been a government issue pistol with its own lot number and therefor not on their site? Here is a picture and...

Found this video and I knew before even watching it what was going to happen. Ouch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9grSq-TWMQ As a machinist this hurts to watch. Always wear short sleeve shirts. Greebe

Thanks guys for the responses. I wish that there was a press like I am looking for. It would be easier to buy one then make one but it would be a fun project to make. That press Martins dad made is like the one made by Ross, Harrell, and Sinclair. I am thinking of maybe making something like...
