  1. Gunsmith choke question

    in Guns & Equipment

    Posted

    to consider..........

    i had my sxs barrells regulated...........using a particular name and weight and shot size of a cartridge...........it was regulated to those cartridges

    if you are a cartridge tart and swap around to other fancy coloured cartridges.....your regulated barralls are not regualated anymore......ie: waste of time

    stick to your cartridge that the barralls were regulated to

     NOTE       "regulated" usually means the alignment of barrells....but can also mean the honing of chokes to give the desired pattern with a chosen cartridge

    I think you will find old age and disease take the biscuit for that..
    Communism would likely take 2nd place if you factor in the consequential deaths of events like the Great Leap Forward.

    Which one as there were a couple in the sale. The XXV Churchill style sidelock made about £410 I think. There was a tidy looking AYA boxlock too but would need to check my notes to see if I made a note of what that made. 
    Some of the Victorian taxidermy made strong money.

    the churchill rib one...............if it was in good condition that was a cracking price

    If that's the best Iran can do then its a pretty weak attempt at a payback but Iran's mission to the UN cited the UN Charter provision for self defence, under Article 51, and said that it considered the "matter... concluded" this was just a warning shot across the bow and they have now made their point, However it warned it would use greater force should Israel respond in kind, watch this space.

    Air defence.

    Its a pity we don't give Ukraine the same numbers and systems to defend its air space as this is where the real danger lies.

    there is talk that the UK is going to give Ukraine the latest LASER system to help tackle drones......how accurate that report is i dont know

    I would imagine the Drones are to use up Air Defences and then the Cruise Missiles start.

    BBC has just mentioned cruise missiles and a 2nd wave of drones to come.....so you arnt far wrong

    it is highly unlikley any of the drones will reach their target...........BUT if one does...it will give Israel carte blanche to relatiate in their own time and to choose the leathality of the response............

    Iran has a few low grade "dirty" missiles /war heads and my worry is they will use the drones as a blind to launch a limited dirty strike on Israel.............if that happens...

    watch the skylight up as the nuc's drop it on their targets

    total madness

    RELIGION STINKS it always has been the cause of most of the deaths in this world......

    just been reported and confirmed that Iran has lauched "dozens" of drones to Israel which will arrive later to-night early hours tomorrow

    This is not good..............

    it will only escalate and result in total destruction.................

    the world has truly gone mad

    Hi OPP, I realise it was a tongue in cheek remark but just checking whether that was the guy you meant.

    I know that The Repair Shop is very orchestrated but still find it good to watch, especially that Suzie Fletcher, she could tan my hide any day:whistling:.

    Sorry to the OP for slightly derailing his thread.

    OB

     

    if you watch closely you can see her false teeth move..
