| Wow time passes so quickly. Rotunda was built in 07. I cannot believe I have been gluing my fingers together for that long a time! |

| Oh Yes. The landing gear retraction mechanism, which was chains/ sprockets and cranks were lifted right from the Leoning amphibian (IIRC) and used up to the F4F Wildcats. I read a article about when the F4F's launched off of the carrier, you would watch the Wildcat weave and wobble as the pilot cranked the gear up which I think was about 60 turns of the crank in the cockpit. There is no mistaking Grumman heritage in the lines of their A/C. Nice Model by the way!! |

| Can you remember where you found the plan? Looks like an interesting build. |

The order of things. Remember "The Barrel?" She is about to leave the den and migrate to the cabin! |

| The only ammo I have used in it, as far as I can recall, was a box of 550 rounds (loose in the box...makes me nervous) of Federal copper plated LR HP. There might have been a 100 round box of CCI somewhere along the way, but I doubt it. I use Federal Premium (with Nosler Partition) for all of my big game hunting and the Kimber chews through American Eagle rounds with no trouble, so I thought Federal would be a good brand. Next time I get a chance to go plinking I'll have to try some fresh CCI and see how it goes.
Thanks to everyone else for allowing us to indulge in an OT subject. I really do have a model plane around here somewhere. |

| Clean it and use top quality high vel ammo. Brick type ammo, mine and all of my friends jam also. CCI minimags etc. never a jam. |

| Oh! Don't get me wrong, I love the 10/22 it is a great plinker I just would like something with more OOmpf for self defense. With the way the world situation the way it is, I might need it. Steve, I'm sorry that yours is jamming. I've owned 3 or 4 of them, and never had any problems with it. I would ask Ruger about it, they might be able to help you. Maybe it's your ammo. |

| I should send you my 10/22. After about 30 shots the power residue begins to build and the bolt/slide does not go back fully, resulting in the empty brass not being ejected all the way, causing a jam. I keep thinking it will "break in" but it never has. |

| SW...10/22 is a great plinker. I have one that is 40...maybe cleaned her twice. |
| sweetwillie, Comment for image # 6555 | 12 Feb 08 10:08 |
| Oh! Incidently, welcome to "Armory Aerodrome". LOL, just kidding, guys, I wish I had a bigger rifle than a Ruger 10/22. I'd feel a lot safer with at heavier caliber, what, with the way the world is today. John, you're a clown! |
| sweetwillie, Comment for image # 6555 | 12 Feb 08 10:02 |
| John, what is that white stuff on the ground? Is that snow? I haven't seen any in so long, I've forgotten what it looks like. That's quite a scope that you've got on that AK, very nice. I especially like your beard. |
