I will be testing this one the usual way and I will try to show you accuracy, if possible. I had assumed it would be close. As the photo of the cardboard box above illustrates, the spinners were hit more often than the cardboard behind it. Hopefully the cocking effort will not be that hard especially if you cock it like the Gat using a block of wood padded by a scrap of rug.

I expect the trigger of this not to be helpful for precision work. The first link is in reference to discussions about whether accuracy is better with a single shot tray or a magazine. The first video could help with magazine accuracy. The second shows how to make some simple reactionary targets. Gunfun1 June 11, at Took a drill bit that was bigger than the pellet holes and made chamfer. Also done this in my FX Monsoon magazines. They are identical to Marauder magazines. As well as the Gauntlet mag I got with the Gauntlet. But I have to say his pellets were the extreme of what I seen on skirt scraping.

What I wanted to see is the pellet head scraping. Which he did not show in the video. I already have several targets like that. I place them at different places in the yard. Plus I got some squirrel feild targets thrown in also. I got a mini field target course basically. Actually my hanging can targets have been pretty fun. I kind of up graded to weed trimmer line instead of the yarn. So now the cans get a spring bounce out of a hit. Plus another thing that gets them moving is the wind blowing them around or shooting after you hit one already and sets them in motion.

Here is what I got now. Just one M-1 carbine? There were 10 prime contractors; 11 if you count Irwin-Pederson Contract that never made an accepted carbine There were at least three rear sight variations. Several safety and magazine release variations. To say nothing of the two rivet and four rivet upper guard variations and the with and without bayonet lug variations.

I would think you could fill several large gun safes with the all the variations of the the M-1 carbine. Yes, it would be easy to make just the M1 Carbine a whole collection, because how many aftermarket makers are there? And then there are the IR sights, grenade launchers etc.

And some people go bonkers over Irwin Pederson carbines that Inland I believe finished after the government cancelled the IP contract. In fact, the Irwin Pederson story of failure to make the Carbine is a very educational one. I have owned an Inland, a Winchester it was gorgeous! But I am not a collector. Actually, no Carbine should ever have all parts from one manufacturer.

That runs counter to the Carbine program. My two brothers and I were given Targeteers for Christmas in We were also given safety instruction by our Dad, so we never shot each other with them. It was a tempting thought since the guns were so weak. We did find that they would knock over a green army man at 10 feet, so they were good for something. The velocity was so slow that one could easily see the BB in flight. The guns were also pretty good for beating on things because of their heft and mostly metal construction. We used them until they rusted up and gave out.

You can sometimes find them these days at thrift shops at prices that allow for use as targets. Have a great day! Walt Now you reminded me about a little N gauge train set I wanted to get as a kid. It was like a brief case that opened into a small layout. The case was wood. I imagine that would be worth some money now days.

It would be a nice hobby to do again. I had some HO stuff as a kid and what ever the next size up was from HO. I had a old like Pattycought junction train that actually smoked when you put a few drops of oil down the smoke stack. I can still remember the smell. I used 3 in 1 oil that we always laying around when I was a kid. But I could see myself getting into Z gauge. Heck you could have a whole layout on your kitchen table. The problem is could I see to put the darn wheels on the track. Some of the engines are no bigger than a quarter!

In the Targeteer you probably had was one that fired genuine BBs instead of. Read about that one here:. Yes, it was the genuine BB version. Thanks for the link. I read your articles on the Targeteer, and it brought back a lot of memories. But we used them.

Give a 10 year-old anything that looks like a gun and shoots, and it is going to get used. Guess we had a love-hate relationship with them. They were imposing and dangerous-looking, but were duds. We oiled the snot out of them, and they still rusted. The amount of design work that went into not only the gun, ammo and targets but also the packaging and graphics illustrates the depths companies go to not only developing a product but making it appealing to consumers.

The Texas Targeteer

The one in good shape has the Clover and Spade targets switched compared to the one that has been shot at alot. It just makes me wonder if they assembled the targets how ever they chose that day from the factory.

Or were they all assembled the same way and the target that seen a lot of use got taken apart for some reason and assembled wrong compared to the good target. I know now big deal. But maybe something to look for if your collecting this red and white target. Is that the one with the Sherman tanks battling Panzers? Those boys are good! Ok off topic but what makes a barrel lock up? When I cock my em ge rifle then close it the cocking linkage is loose. There is play in all the linkage joints but the linkage seems way looser than the apparent slop in the joints. It literally rattles under the barrel after cocking.

The gun exhibited excessive vertical stringing like a 4 inch nearly perfect vertical line of shots at 10 yards.

Sounds like one of two things. Breech seal is too thick, or the wedge or ball lockup has a weak spring. Has nothing to do with the problem. One of my R9s rattles, but it is a bug killer at 25 yards. Thank you the simplest things escape me sometimes. There is one more possibility. The wedge does not have enough travel. I have one that had this problem. I was able to remove the wedge and grind a bit of metal from the right place and get a bit more travel.

Did not need much removed. Those are some compelling arguments for the M1 carbine. But perhaps this rifle was a little too light. I wonder if there is something to an intrinsic relation between a gun and a caliber. My M1 gunsmith and elite shooter said that the M1 Garand was designed for the I do believe the. You want to try out the amazing Wharncliffe blade design. The Ronin2 from Spyderco would be good choice. This knife is turning me into a mad slasher of inanimate things.

It goes through anything—pizza wrappers, envelopes etc. And the straight blade means you can use all the apparatus and techniques for sharpening straight razors. Matt61 Keep in mind that the M1 Carbine was never intended to be used by front line troops. Just better than a pistol for support troops behind the lines. You must be logged in to post a comment.
