    What movie would you like to see made?

    "Blood Meridian" by Cormac McCarthy if they made that one, it would probably have an X rating if they stuck to the whole book though. i'd also like "Anything For Billy" by Larry McMurtry

    True Grit - 2010

    being a younger feller, i'll say right away that I HAVE SEEN the original classic westerns, and yes, most of them are lightning in a bottle and can never be repeated, but I am excited about this. I like Bridges, Damon is alright, Brolin is great. don't know about the girl though. maybe they're...

    i checked the nipple and it looks pretty clean, still can see daylight through the other side. and the threads still seem pretty sharp. i've pulled the tumbler out and the square peg that connects to the hammer is rotted through one side, and i didn't find any fly on the tumbler. i might just...

    GPR vs. Hawkin

    i like 'em both. each one is unique unto itself, and it all depends on personal preference. the one part I really like about the GPR is the double barrel wedges and how its parts are steel instead of brass. as for accuracy, if you put in alot of time and effort, unless the gun is a complete...

    A good revolver smith

    like Dave said, my Uberti's work as well. the uberti walker is built like an engine block and will probably outlive all others. the 1860 army is sturdy, but I have had to replace the hands before due to the wear and tear of regular use. and all the gunsmithing i do myself. Lane

    best ways to age metal?

    thanks Nife, thats the exact kind of patina i was thinking about :hatsoff: my friend had used bleach on his blade and it didn't come out looking very good. I'd heard that heated bleach works better. but it just sorta "sploched" the blade and didn't look aged at all. is there a way to clean...

    best ways to age metal?

    so i'm curious about how to "age" metal (steel, brass). I've been thinking about aging a pistol and my bowie knife. what sort of techniques do you guys use to age your guns? I'm talking about that certain look where it still has about 60-80% of the blueing left on it, and sort of that "used but...
