      Winchester 1897 Trench Gun

      I just bought an early WWII Winchester 1897 Trench Gun from a veteran's son. He had his dad on the phone while we were negotiating the price. He said he hated the heat shield, so he ripped it off. The bayonet lug is still there and it still has 4 out of 6 of the rivets in it. I thought I...

      WTB: CZ 452 Ultra Lux.

      Just like the title says. I am interested in CZ rifles, but mainly I would like to track down a CZ 452 Ultra Lux with the 28.5" barrel. NIB preferred.

      Case Lot of 30-30 Ammunition

      I have the opportunity to buy a case of vintage Remington 30-30 ammunition. I haven't been in the ammo market for a while, and this is stuff is sort of odd-ball so I thought I would ask your opinion. It is a case of 1000 rounds of 30-30 made between 1946 and 1960 (I believe). It is in pristine...

      Marlin 1893 SRC in 38-55

      I went to Tulsa for the big gun show and brought this back. It is from 1907-08 and looks so good. I can't wait to take it to the range this week.

      WTS: Gold 2 Piece Smith Boxes...

      SOLD!!! I am in New Castle and have 2 Smith and Wesson Gold 2 piece boxes. You can reach me via PM. I am asking $100 for both. I really don't want to split them up. I believe these are from the late 1940's. The era is a little fuzzy unless you are a real Smith aficionado. 1) The K22 Combat...

      Real Hunting Camping and Fishing Store

      Is there a market for a real sporting goods store? What Gander Mountain was before the expansion- what Galyans used to be - more accessible than Cabelas... What about a store that has nothing but real sporting goods (in my opinion)? A store where you don't have to wade through soccer shoes and...

      Ruger M77ST Round Top

      I am looking at buying a M77ST in 7mm Mag. I am not a huge fan of the caliber, but the guy is asking $350 for it. It is from 1986 and is a tang safety gun. It has been drug around on some elk hunts and the stock is pretty banged up. The metal finish is surprisingly pretty good aside from...

      WTS: JM Stamped Marlin 1895cb in 45-70

      I am selling my Marlin 1895cb this year. It has the 26" octagon barrel with a straight stock. It has a 2001 date of manufacture so it is well before the Remington takeover. It has a JM stamp and a magazine capacity of 9. Also, this year 45-70 is a deer legal cartridge in Indiana. I installed a...

      WTB: Cabinets

      My wife is opening a bakery in New Castle and I am looking to buy cheap cabinets for the service area. We are going to remove the doors and re-surface them anyway, so all we need are the boxes. Lowers and tall uppers preferred. All will be considered. Also, if you have any sources for...

      Full-Length Resizing...

      About a year ago, I got into reloading from the 32 Win Special Winchester 1894 I had. In fear of going down the rabbit hole, and since I shoot mostly factory ammo, I decided to get a tong tool and all the dies for 32 Special. As most of you know, the Lyman tong tool only neck-sizes. This was...

      Venezuela - Hyperinflation/Cartel Conspiracy/Whatever

      This is for all you guys that say silver and gold will have no value when the SHTF. This is a definite SHTF scenario where precious metals would be nice as a store of wealth. Venezuelans fight to protect their savings as government pulls bills from circulation | Fusion

      Found A Hatchet In The Barn...

      I was about to go in the house after working on the tractor when I saw a handle sticking out from behind the electrical panel in the barn. I pulled it out and it was a crazy looking hatchet. After some investigation, It is a hatchet for hand hewing logs. The blade is offset and it is ground only...

      Wind Farms

      It looks like I am smack dab in the middle of proposed wind farm territory in Henry County. Part of me wants to stay out of the fight since it will probably go through anyway. Part of me wants to go to the meeting tonight to voice my opinion. Aside from my anti-man-made-global-warming...

      Getting Reado To Put In Sweet Corn

      I think I have enough of a window to get the sweet corn in before the rain hits on Wednesday/Thursday. I will be planting 4 total plantings of 1/2 acre at a time. I will be throwing down the starter fertilizer today and disking, hopefully planting tomorrow if I can get out of the house. Sorry...

      Loaded For First Time With The Lyman 310 Tong Tool...

      I bought a Lyman/Ideal 310 Tong tool as a curiosity. I wanted to be able to load some cartridges if they were ever hard to find even though I shoot factory ammo exclusively. The first caliber I decided to try my hand at is the 32 Winchester Special. Well, I went to the range on Saturday and...

      ***SPF*** I am looking to sell an extra 10-22 I have. It is the 50th anniversary 10-22 but everything except the bolt engraving is the same as a stock 10-22. The box is a little smushed, but the rifle is fine. I would like $200 for it in New Castle/N.E. Indianapolis. You can reach me by P.M.

      Rut...

      If possible, I would like this to be a thread for members to share their observations on rut activity. It seems like things are taking their own sweet time to come in. I will be on the stand Saturday and will report what I see then. Anyone have any observations on sign or behavior to report yet?

      FN FAL Opinions

      I found an FN FAL Metric at a LGS. I don't know much about them other than I want one. I am pretty sure $599 OTD is a good price. Just looking for quick confirmation. It doesn't have a bipod or flash hider. It comes with 3 20 round mags and a cardboard box. It is an IMBEL receiver and that is...
