      Henry single shot scope

      I got a .223 Henry break-open single shot rifle. Need a scope. Something not expensive. This gun has a hammer so clearance might be a problem. Does anyone know for sure what would work? thanks

      I have 10 or 12 gun magazines and catalogs from 1958-59. Very interesting reading. $10 to mail all to you or pick up free in Houma. Tom 281-660-9494

      Southern Shooting Center in Thibodaux

      I just received a membership renewal form in the mail. I was briefly a member after Ida hurricane. So I guess it is open and active.

      Another classic gone

      The longest-operating gun manufacturing plant in the country will close its doors in March after 195 years of making Remington guns. Ilion, New York plant to close, Remington moving everything to Georgia. Will NY-made Remingtons take on extra value like JM Marlins have?

      Israel gun ownership

      Interesting piece on Fox TV just now with interview with a gunshop owner in Israel. He is suddenly slammed with customers since the terrorist attacks. In a country of 10 million, only about 150k have permit to have a gun. Takes interviews with police, training, etc - long process. They...

      Old shotgun parts

      Cleaning out house, found back half (action and stock) of 12 ga double barrel shotgun, locks work. Rough. Also two set of 12 ga barrels, don't think they fit that frame, very rusty and rough. Maybe someone can use for something. Tom (281) 660-9494 must pick up in Houma.

      Murdaugh case evidence

      Prosecutor just said, in closing arguments, that the spent shotgun shells and .300 Blackout rifle cases at the murder scene cannot be proved to have come from the family guns. BUT that those guns fired the fatal shots CANNOT be EXCLUDED either.

      Murdaugh case evidence

      Can't seem to find an answer to this. Some sources say old spent casings from a .300 Blackout rifle at the Murdaugh property MATCH the casings at the murder scene. The actual murder weapons are missing. Question - does every rifle leave UNIQUE markings on the case after firing? Or can two...

      16 ga in 12 ga gun

      Murdaugh murder case - defendant grabbed a 12 ga Benelli auto shotgun and leaned it against his car. Cops found one 12 ga and one 16 ga round unfired in the gun. Lawyer asked, what would happen if 16 ga were attempted to be fired in a 12 ga gun? She didn't know. Anyone know? Would it fire...

      Alec Baldwin charged with involuntary manslaughter

      Famous defense lawyer Robert Shapiro said he very much doubts they can convince a jury of 12 that Baldwin acted with intent. Apparently that is an element of the charge of manslaughter. If so, going to be a tough case for the prosecution.

      shooting on public land

      Shooting in the spillway west of Norco was prohibited after .22 bullets from plinkers went over the berm and landed near a school in Norco.

      Alec Baldwin may yet be charged

      DA investigating shooting on movie set of Rust movie says four criminal indictments may be coming. Baldwin is one of the four. Stay tuned. The same day I saw this, I see an article that there have been at least 21 accidental discharges of police Sig Sauer P320 auto pistols. In none of...

      Ridiculous new gun law in NY State

      Sep. 10—Reenactors are up in arms over a change to the state's gun laws that they say effectively bans reenactment events. They say that under the new law that took effect Sept. 1, firearms including antique Civil War and Revolutionary War-era firearms are classified the same way as modern...

      Another controversial shooting

      An older man in a movie theatre asked a younger man to stop using his phone during a movie preview. Younger guy confronts older guy, older guy shoots him. Older guy just acquitted. https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/popcorn-fear-death-theater-killing-trial-jury-83111913

      Moose attack

      A large moose attacked a dog sled team who were on a training run in Alaska. The dog owner said that the moose was undeterred by her emptying her gun into it. The moose trampled the dogs for nearly an hour, leaving several seriously injured. Brings to mind the movie line "we're going to need a...

      Pump action opening when firing express shells

      No - a blowback action does not LOCK the breechbolt. A Rem 31 has the rear of the bolt lock up against a shoulder in the receiver, just like most older pumps, Ithaca, Winchester model 12, etc.

      Ahmaud Arbery....Cue the Riots????

      Running toward a guy pointing a shotgun at you is NOT a good move. You may be legally right, but dead wrong. My wife insists the two men would have shot Arbery in any case. I don't believe that. If Arbery had just sat down, waited for cops, he would still be alive. These guys are not...
