I have a Degree in Gun smithing I’ve never used it. With the way laws towards firearms can change at the drop of a hat it's a better hobbie than a full time career. That’s just my 2 cents that’s why I am going to law school.

misfit

Not his home state it's a class 3 state so anything goes

misfit

If you have the cash you can get it. Keep your eyes on Gun broker and guns America you will find one just keep looking.

misfit

Randy you live in a very friendly class 3 state. If you want some more info on class 3 ownership PM me and I can walk you through the easiest way to go about it

Same hear in Arizona, I love how polite people are when everyone has the right to carry. $\:D/$

I bought the Pagey whip from G-Man and it's great I just love it. I will try and get some photos of it up this week. I can also answer any questions any one has

misfit

Yes, yes and yes I put my S&W 1917 45acp and the holster holds it just fine. They are really solid and well made

misfit

Throw them in the dryer and that will knock the kinks out

misfit

When I got mine it was nasty. I washed it in the washing machine with detergent and once dry I spray painted it after the paint dried I washed again and it came out great

misfit

My gun smith is a funny old fart but I don’t think he would mind me taking photos of the conversion. The only thing holding me back right now is the barrel. I have the grips. the stembridg is an easy one all you do is notch the front sight off the front of the barrel then turn down the barrel to 4&q...

misfit

that is a super cool jacket

misfit

Just another reason to have measurements posted on a vendor's site, sigh. I guess we need to corner them on the phone and have them drop everything, pull out their tape measure and do measurements over the phone, double sigh. [-X #-o :tdown: Wherere DID I put those happy pills?!...fidgit. :lol: Wel...

lol true

I thought they were two names for the same thing. Either way, I do want to make one, just don't know what to use to make it. I would assume that nylon thread would be best but how thich should it be? Also, does anyone have a god tutorial on how to make a cracker...or poper. ;) Dave your right a few...

misfit

crackers or popers? eather way just make one

misfit

How long should the jacket be in the body? I just got a us wings jacket and it fits great but it just seems a little long in the body what do you guys think?

Well they sent me a return shipping label and they say that they will replace them we shall see. But it's very hard to box up my favorite shoes and send them back I am thinking I need to buy another pair.

misfit

I bought them on line and I sent them an email last night waiting to hear back from them. I will let you all know what is said when they respond

misfit

I just got thies shoes back in december and the seam is comming apart. what should i do? thanks misfit

By steven36

misfit

yep they are on the way ;-)

misfit

Just found these grips

By steven36

misfit

A friend of mine found the barrel for me and yes I was going to leave the front unfinished. I was going to have the grips made from the same guy who made the ones in the photo above. (if these photos are not ok to post please let me know and I will get rid of them) http://img222.imageshack.us/img222...

misfit

I found the grips on gunbroker he is going to re solder the old site back on and cut it a bit and who know how much he is going to charge me some times it 50$ other times its 200$ he is old and funny like that

misfit

I was talking with my gunsmith about this conversion and he told me that he did a 2" barrel on one back in the 50's and re chamber it to hold 45 long colt's. He did this for a NYC detective. Now that’s some serous fire power

misfit

Yep I got the grips and the new barrel should be on its way.

misfit

I am seriously considering doing the Stembridge conversion on mine I just think it looks better but hay what do I know

misfit

You can have class3 stuff in Californian but I don’t know how hard it is to get though. If you like guns then Arizona is the place for you ;-)

misfit

I am in Arizona no back ground checks especially if you have a CCW. Class3 stuff is very easy to get you just have to know how to go about it. If you need some more info pm me and I can walk you through it

misfit

I don’t have a class 3 license I just pay my 200$ tax stamp and about 10 weeks later I get a little piece of paper saying it's ok to have the class3 device and thank you

misfit

I just ordered two of them in 59" my Herbert Johnson is in a 59 and it's a bit tight so I will let you know when they come in.

misfit

Ouch I walk in buy what I want and walk out this is the stuff I have to wait on

By steven36

misfit

What’s it like to have to wait to get a gun? That would kill me I have a hard enough time waiting on class3 stuff

RaiderZee

i got my eyes open for you

misfit

Thats good to hear thanks

misfit

After looking at that hat for a couple of days it has really grown on me. I am thinking of maybe doing one like it. It just grows on you

misfit

It’s about 25" give or take. I am top heavy my shoulders and chest are larger than most and it fits me good. Hope that helps

misfit

You can spray paint it too use some KRYLON olive drab it's the flat cammo paint.

misfit

Be careful I dyed my Magnoli bag and it came out GREEN not olive but dark snot green. I had to wash and wash it then leave it in the sun just to bleach some of the color out of it. http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/2032/img0190oq4.jpg http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/img0190oq4.jpg/1/w640.png htt...

misfit

lol I just found another one for 200$ it's been in a fire and I haven’t seen it yet but that’s more than likely my cut down gun.

misfit

Well I do see what you are saying about the barrel. I may look in to buying a new barrel and cutting that one down.

misfit

When I cut down the barrel it will be reblued as well so yes the rust will go away. These are the grips I have to put on it.

misfit

A smith 1917 in 45ACP. I am going to cut down the barrel and do a raiders copy. Don’t know if I want to do the Bapty or the Stembridge conversion? http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/7707/s13xk2.jpg http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/s13xk2.jpg/1/w640.png http://img168.imageshack.us/img168/2927/s24ev...

misfit

Check out gun broker. I saw one on their yesterday

misfit

That’s a beauty WW1 or earlier I bet. Be careful with it especially where you’re at

it is a lot smaller than the .455 webley

misfit

Imahomer wrote:That certainly would work for me.

Does it shoot the .38 short?

yes it dose

misfit

I was at a local gun shop and found this it’s an Enfield MK1 .38. It was made in 1935 I thought It looked good and it was only 300$ instead of over a grand for the Webley green. It fits my holster great too :lol: http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/7964/img0171na0.jpg http://img405.imageshack.us/img4...
