Re: 17 Mach2

If I keep it lubed with WD40, it's less likely to jam. Thought that the small step in the cartridge may be part of the problem. Any Thoughts?

Re: Lorcin9mm

I think that I'll keep this as a home defense weapon and not fire it at the range anymore. Time to get the S&W MP40 that I've been lusting for.

17 Mach2

My brother gave me a Marlin 795(I think) 17 Mach2. He thought it was a 17 HMR and was disgusted with the small round.

Re: M2 carbine won't run

They often re-use the same film clips, one show about the P40Warhawk showed a pic of an early P51 Mustang. Guess they think nobody will know the difference.
The show I watched said 1938 for the...

Re: M2 carbine won't run

I saw a special on the Military Channel that said the M1 was first submitted to the DOD for inspection in 1938.

Re: H&R Revolver ID

I forgot to mention that it has a 4 inch barrel and no manufacturer name or caliber markings.
I saw another thread that Bill Goforth responded to. From his post, this is looking to be a pre-1905.
