I think you mean the wood (not metal) goes down around the front of the trigger guard mostly for looks?

Note that the stocks for both rifles have definitely been modified. They are not standard action stocks. It appears that more than the floorplate was modified. Looks like magazine walls were also lengthened? Here's the profile of magazine and stock on my 98 Mauser 404J. No drop in the stock...

Looks like that 9 iron has chipped a few off the gravel in the parking lot. :D

I could maybe live with the first but not the second. I mean, a 404 that's 3+1 is already heavy. Adding an extra cartridge is adding a fair amount weight. Adding two more cartridges? Yes, added weight = less felt recoil but there is a point of diminishing returns when one has to carry the...

This is the second pair the US VA has sent me. App didn't work out with first set and replaced by company with upgraded aids and app. Working great although it takes quite a while for the app to warm up and find the hearing aids. They can be turned on manually, both generally and blue tooth...

Happy, would these work for you? Rechargeable and the charging unit is rechargeable too. These hearing aids are good for all day and into the night on one charge. They can be adjusted with a phone app. Also comes with a blue tooth adapter for my TV so I can now understand what's going on...

Is that phaser set to "stun" or "kill"? :D

Thanks. Sound is out on my computer.

Yeah, Hornady likes to load them hot for some reason. I understand their bonded bullets are good stuff and their brass from my experience is excellent. If I need more loading components, I'll probably buy a box of their 400 gr ammo, pound out the bullets, and reload to something less likely to...

I was curious about this guy who has only been CEO since December. Presumably he remains CEO at Walther where he's been since 2021? But what did he do before that during his 35 years in the "outdoors industry"? A diligent search indicates he was formerly VP of sales with ... Remington. No...

Damn! Where can I sign up!!! Better check my blood pressure. A long dormant appendage seems to have suddenly drained the reserves.

I prefer to travel light when hunting. There's the usual stuff: boots, coat, cap, scope, knife, ammo, flashlight. What I don't wear typically goes into a cheap daypack I bought at the university book store here. It has a belly strap which I presume was for bicycling. Very handy for keeping...

Just to be clear, it's only the floorplate you're modifying for 4+1? The stock is still standard? I had the option of ordering "extended" bottom metal for 4+1 but I assumed it would require a custom stock.

I think I saw those on the late night shopping channel. Supposed to be a quick fix for prostrate problems if I recall correctly.

Must be more Australian advertising? Ranks right up there with "Run ya Bastard!" starting fluid.
