    Hawkeye 308 Carbine?

    I have one of these (model 37101) that was purchased in 2010 when they first were offered. The box label identifies it as an RS.

    Scoping an air gun with regular rifle scope. Parallax ?

    Don, The recoil pulse is different, much worse, on an air gun than a rifle. Many manufacturers will not honor warranties on regular scopes that have been used on air rifles. Check with Leupold to verify your scope is acceptable for use on an air rifle. I'm not up to speed on parallax, so...

    Wearing a watch: a fading practice

    I have 2 identical Casio watches. They are set 1 hour different; I wear 1 during daylight savings time, and the other during standard time.

    P89 guide rod question

    Thanks. I remembered both had some change, but my memory isn't what it used to be. Ted

    Food Shopping - HUH?

    Brewers yeast and bakers yeast are close enough to be interchangeable. Found out that fact when I was diagnosed as being allergic to both. So no bread or beer for me. :( So is everyone making hand sanitizer?

    Smoothing Up A Hawkeye

    Second while watching TV, run the bolt fore-and-aft a couple of hundred times. Should smooth up over time. Ted

    Dressed for the occasion....

    Oh, dear. Bob's gone over to the dark side and became a bandito. ;) And watch those magical incantations lest the preacher find out...could keep him busy with preaching material for a couple of weeks. Ted

    Swapping Tang Safety Stocks

    Short answer...no. There is a difference in hole spacing where the forward diagonal bedding screw will be in the wrong place. Ted

    Another M77 Tang Safety Question

    Tang safety rifles after 79-49999 have the ability to be opened whether on Fire or Safe. Rifles serial numbered before that point can be easily changed if you want that feature on your ultralight. Just call the NH Ruger parts telephone number and order part number D-35A. That part is a c-clip...

    Homemade masks

    Here's an option your wife might consider. 3M, the major supplier of masks, also makes HEPA filters for furnaces. Buy one at your favorite hardware store and disassemble the parts. Keep just the filter material. Cut the filter material to fit between the 2 layers of fabric. Should be enough...

    Cleaning our dog's teeth at home(?)

    Don, What we did was get a 5/8" piece of soft poly rope at the hardware big box store. Tied a knot on each end, and toss it to the dogs. They use daily for games of tug-o-war and keep away; and it helps to floss their teeth in between vet visits. We can tell by the difference in their "dog...

    P89 guide rod question

    Here's a possibility...If I remember correctly, there were 2 variations of P89. I think one used a swinging-link (like what is shown in Blume's photos), and the other used a cam-path. If that is true, you may have received the wrong replacement guide rod. Check with RENE Guide for serial...

    Any good thoughts and love here for the CZ75B?

    That's another thing in favor of the CZ75, you can modify them to your hearts content...Kinda like the 10/22. Between CZC and Cajun Gun Works, they have all the spare, and modified, parts that I will ever need. And CZC sells some CZ pistols that are already modified and slicked-up. And you...

    Any good thoughts and love here for the CZ75B?

    My carry pistol is the 75 Compact. It's similar to the PCR and P01, but has a steel frame. The only pistol I've found that fits my hands better is a Springfield 1911 EMP4, but the EMP4 is twice the price...so I'm not going to be using it for CCW. Ted PS. Yes, do look at the Tactical Sport...
