Did you use a fibre glass rod perchance ?. I cant comment further Iv'e never seen a' Traditions' any thing and other than a Parker Hale have never had any modern factory gun other than my own make in my battery . Rudyard
Nothing like the old fibre glass abrasive stick for wearing out barrels, unless it’s the pull-throug
Good catch. If not something like this, it's difficult to imagine why only the last few inches of the barrel would be affected.
Oh that can be said of almost anything once the bean counters get involved. I remember watching a "how it's made" type of show on TV once. It was about a baker who came up with this flakey cone shaped pastry filled with some kind of deliciousness that people were lining up around the block on Sundays to get. The bean counters bought a box of them and decided they were going to make them in a factory and make a million bucks. They couldn't make the dough as flakey so they came up with something that tasted "about the same". They couldn't extrude a cone shape so they went with an off the shelf production machine that basically cranked out something that looked like a cereal bar. They couldn't get the shelf life of the filling so they changed that completely to some kind of a shelf stable fruit filling and packaged it all in an envelope. They did sell a million bucks worth of them but not one person who bought one ever got to experience the real thing and nobody ever lined up for a box of them.
Show walkabout you’re gonna take one person’s opinion personally never met a person who may have no idea what you’re doing they may be able to do a video but they may not know jack squat about guns is something everyone needs to think about anyone these days as long as I know how to make a video to make a video about anything and most of them are complete and utter moron
That would be Ann Patrick, who continued the business after her husband, Edward, died. Eadward and his father, Jeremiah, were very active in the flintlock period. In 1833 she sold the business to Thomas Williams & Samuel Powell who produced very high quality arms. In 1905 Williams & Powell sold to Westley Richards.
Yes that is correct .
Of COURSE they do -- - - they are made down to a price: as they used to say in the East End of London .... "Yer tikes yer money an' tikes yer choice, squire."
Depends who made them ;-)
You are a smart man! I to have used guns from just about every where on this earth with no major problems. I also have worked on several in my long life. The one thing that kept dancing in my mind was most of the problem were from people working on their weapon or operater error.
