Hey you were lucky wheel bearings would have gone if it were me .Alot of the trucks have a plug in pigtail thats used for installing ease but as for the trailers sometimes its better just rewiring the whole thing, not many connections are soldered any more and crimps and slide connectors always corrode glad you made it safely thoughby kurt wag - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum

That is a beautiful gun looks like somebody is treating it rite. Gary you should have had visitation rights in the contract when you divorced those guns under the beds. I new it had to be true that you cant pour your heart and sole into your work and not be sad to see it leave, From the little bit i know about you you make utilitarian pieces of art unlike other gun makers... your art comes up foby kurt wag - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum

Looks like good place to hang your hat. You know you cant have a nice place like that without owning one of those fancy golf carts maybe electric. That would be for touring your property with grand kids and give hay rides at halloween of course well maybe you and the misses for those moonlite rides .

Winner winner chicken dinner .Got my origional Barnes smoke print today man it looks much more intense in real life gary and thats only on paper.You should let me get the matching gun also well except for the customer thing .That probably wouldnt go over to well. I was wondering if you use the same technic on wood carving seems like a sooty torch might wreck the wood. maybe ink or just plane traby kurt wag - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
The internals are very tuff and durable design to take the abuse put on them by a carny operator who probably doesnt care about maintnence . The browning style machine gun does have 5 place counter with 200 rnd mag . It only counts mag but has a reset lever on side to keep operators from ripping off the owners i would imagine not for pm. it was a great find at Rock Island auction and was in pby kurt wag - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum

Guess my pictures of the cane were not good enough to solicite any comments , tried to get some close ups of the detail.I am pretty new to the big bore thing and got turned on to cane thing in my accumulation of air guns after the carnival obsession peaked .The Macglashan and Feltman pictured in my earlier post sure were alot of fun returning to working order, not bad technology for 1939 fromby kurt wag - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum

Well guys i am the new caretaker of a Barnes Custom cane and could not be happier to drive 12hrs to inspect the weapon i admired. Better yet when my elbow locked into place with my number in my hand as the auctioneer yelled yabadaba SOLD made it all worth the weight. Those of us who made it there had the chance to fondle our choice of gun. I even had to duck a few times cause of flying pelletby kurt wag - Airgun Rendezvous Main Forum
