wow...nice cars.....but there ain't much shade around where you live!!!

no trees to crash into either!

what we need in this country is more un-employed politicians!

remmies are nice..........but a real shotgun, is a sweetsixteen with matt rib barrel........ absolutely un-able to miss!

wish i had mine back!!!!!

*sigh* wasn't enuff interest to make a go at getting some carry cases made.......the fellow that made mine said he would have to have a goodly order to stop on the saddles for a moment to make them. thank you for those that did inquire, and the ones that sent me pictures of original type cases. :mrg...

and look at the background!!!!.......you could shoot my cannon, walk, pick up the ball, and bring it back...do it all over again!!!!

not many trees!

well, some interest has been shown...so what i will do is find out how much~ i can get back with each as you fellas ask.......i won't know till this weekend as i see it~

if anyones interested, message me about getting cases made for your rifle, i can take the total, and go see what the $$ would be. i have 3 friends that make leather as a living, saddle, braces,boots,purses etc... time wise, sometimes the Amish boys 'put me on a schedule'.....but this case was only 3...

Indeed, was thinking of your other projects and talents! (I missed the comment under the pic a great friend to have.) Can't wait to see the coupe pics with you in a zoot suit & Fedora while holding the rifle! :lol: http://www.zootsuitstore.com/Shopping/default.asp well here's the car i will be ...

300 savage 81

SOMEone is 8 yrs MY senior!
neat photo~ we all wish for simpler times............

thank you!!that's a great case!
anyway i could get you to make a few measurements?...and a few more photos?...i live in heart of Amish country~ and one fellow wants to trade me work for one of my powder horns
this is a do-able project!!!!

Can anyone post pictures here of original 8 or 81's hard/leather carry case? I am interested in making one for the nice 81 I have~ looking around the 'net, I can come up with a case, and make the 'innerd's~ but i would like a look at a original~
thanks!

done n done....she shot just fine, the barrel DID come out, and it looks as if the buffer had 'glued' itself to the barrel....no corosion, no rust....just YEARS of sitting in a closet, made it dry and the oil glued her up but good! she shoots to point of aim, and at 50yds, was putting them 1" a...

i'll trade mine for LP gas or gasoline.....money is no good anymore!!!!!!!!!!!!

thanks fella's for replys~ i will work some kroil into the barrel jacket area.....and work the barrel again......as you have told me.
it would seem i ALWAYS make a easy mole-hill project into a mountain project!

I got a spanner wrench, and the barrel nut un-screwed easy enuff...but the barrel won't "drop-out'....it still has a strong recoil spring pulling it back into the barrel shroud.......what gives??? marc looked at the 8 dis-assembly info again.....looked at the barrel again....my barrel just spri...

But... :? I am curious as to what you have your gun resting on? Been studying the picture: a well used step in the center to get up to a bed? Shelves or supports on the each side for a piece that folds down and...? :ugeek: that is a trundle bed....the bottom is a step to get into the bed....as unde...

well, got to the range.had a friend watch the bolt as i fired.it travels back enuff to re-cock the hammer...not enuff to eject the empty....so suspect, a 'spring cleaning' is in order! i don't understand about the forearm attachment...this dosen't do anything, the takedown screw is located behind th...

notice the two front shoulder strap attachment locations!....must be a 'parade' attachment

i still haven't work the fireing function out yet....maybe today~ but she 'shore iz pretty'!

aaahh..........i fell like "grasshopper"...i will have to make me a tool~those are very nice, but i cannot get up off of another $85 right now..... i WISH i had a close buddy around here that has had one apart, but i am the only guy with them here~ so....where's my kroil???....here we go~~...

thanks! is there a sticky here that give instructions on take-down? i have looked at the obvious, springs seem to function fine, bolt recoil springs etc...i don't have a spanner wrench to take the barrel apart....not really sure how it DOES come apart.........and i am not a pipe wrench fan at all! n...

[quote="imfuncity"]I have yet to fix one, but from what I understand, it is likely the spring in the magazine is in backwards. well, i looked at it, and i removed the barrel assembly, pushed on one side of the follower, and moved it forward and out, turned the spring around, and put the fo...

well, it feeds the rounds from the mag, and ejects fired round....only if i rack them manually.......no problems of "nose down syndrom"

Just got a 1949 81remmington in 300savage. she shoots great, no 'bubba' effects, but she won't throw the empty's out upon firing. after each shot, i rack the bolt and she will throw them clear....when i break her down, the spring action recoil of the barrel assembly seems in fine working order~ anyb...
