Does anyone have a source for .321" round nose jacketed bullets? All that I've found are the flat-points.

TIA

I use these in short-chambered shotguns.

The "forend tube assembly," bolt "slide assembly," & forends are different on the Police Model I have compared to a recently manufactured one; both which were disassembled & compared side-by-side. The current example's bolt slide assy has a cutout area that corresponds to...

On a somewhat related note: I recently acquired a factory-new 18.5" bead sight bbl for an early '80s 870P with 20" rifle sight bbl. The finish was different (not mil-spec parkerized) than the original, but I figured no problem, I can deal with a 2-tone shotgun. The bbl went on fine and loo...

I know the feeling; one can never have enough 141s...and I've gained a recent affinity for the .32s.

Should change my name to "Gamemaster Addict."

Please save some "unmessed" ones for me!

I think it's time to add one to my collection.

Thanks again for your help.

I've found several sources that list the spring, but to find who has an original Remington one in stock may be challenging.

Hello again: I have a 16 gauge Model 11 that I believe may need a replacement recoil spring. When reassembling, there is virtually no downward pressure needed on the bbl in order to reinstall the forend. Question: Approximately how tall shoud the spring be when measured? I understand a 12 gauge spri...

Thanks for your prompt input Researcher. I've been looking at a particular Model 17 with checkered buttstock & ringed forend. Based upon its appearance (i.e. wood color & uniform wear), and in conjunction with your info, & my limited research, its very likely original. Are these uncommon...

The materials at my disposal indicate it originally came with a plain buttstock and ribbed forestock. However, I've noted several photos of 17s with checkered forestocks & buttstocks very similar in appearance to those on the Model 29. Others appear to have the checkering pattern of the Model 29...

Great story! Thanks for sharing. Here's mine: I only had a few days in the woods this year with no pre-planning whatsoever (hunted two new locations; no time to pick a spot for my tree stand, etc.). Anyway, I slowly walked out onto the leeward side of the power line early one morning taking only sev...

...i have several from the 50's and love them. if you find a early gun in good, original shape for a reasonable price, buy it. i do. Sounds great! I do and will. I've got my "sights" on a really nice one which I'll hopefully have by next week. And now that I'm ready to part with the $$ fo...

I believe that the original ones were metallic and painted, and that they could have been made out of brass. / who knows, who cares? The first models were not the most popular and are not really a collectors grade - the chances of finding a collectors grade Deluxe BDL is extremely rare. Those guns ...

Greetings all:

I was looking at a Model 760 mfg'd circa 1954, and noticed that the outside circumference of the butt plate was colored gold.

Any thoughts/comments? Does that sound original/correct??

TIA

Thanks for your prompt, comprehensive and informative reply. You've addressed exactly what I wanted to know!
