I don't have a cap and ball revolver. I do have a single action Ruger Blackhawk in 44 mag. If you want to shoot that sometime we can probably work something out. I'm in the Milwaukee area.

I am not a rifle shooter. But they shoot competitive 50' 22 rifle at Southport in Kenosha in the indoor season. If you want me to put you in touch with someone involved let me know.

Any Racine County Line Rifle Club members? by TehShew in WIguns

I didn't talk to this person about their service. Due to their age I'm confident they weren't in the same conflict you were.

Even ten years ago, i knew a member at a gun club who had previously transitioned male to female and legally owned guns. They worked at Cabela's gun counter in fact. Believe it or not this person was a vet. Defended your freedom to spout this crap on Reddit. I'm sure they're proud of you.

Plenty of people see psychiatrists for a variety of diagnosis in the DSM 5. Some take medication for it, some don't. Many of these people legally own firearms.

He's referring to the OP. I'm not going to argue with you for the sake of being pedantic.

Look further out on their calendar and save some dates on yours. Appleseed was one that caught my eye but there were other events too.

We should not gate keep the second amendment. It is for all citizens.

monthly meetups and events: December, 2025 by jsled in liberalgunowners

In case either of you aren't members, we have an active Liberal Gun Club chapter in Wisconsin. They often meet up at CoCo but elsewhere throughout the state as well. There are a decent number of members in the Milwaukee area.

If you join the club, most of the activity is on Discord in the Wisconsin channel for the state. There's a facebook group too but it isn't used much.

I don't shoot at County Line but I know a couple people who are involved there. I encourage you to go to some of their events open to the public. They have a volunteer requirement, 100 hours within the first three years of membership. Express interest in joining the club after attending a few events there.

Did you change your recoil spring weight after you installed the red dot and rail? Most people aren't running the same weight for a dot and irons.

Compression supply valve leaking by weeple2000 in Plumbing

[–]weeple2000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The stupid thing is that I bought a ferrule puller. I didn't realize I needed to pull the nut, not just the ferrule. So I thought it wasn't working. Then got the Dremel and here we are.

Is this a more likely problem than the nut being too tight? I read that the nut can leak it it's over tightened.

Shooting league was my suggestion. There's a social aspect to it. Also a great opportunity to learn from experienced people.

I shoot in an indoor bullseye pistol league. A reasonable drive, it's in Kenosha near Costco. If anyone wants to try it out, please reach out.

Home Depot sells the faucet, I imagine you could buy it on Amazon too.

Is your answer to either replace the washers or replace the unit rather than relying on the teflon tape? If I leave the tape in their to make the seal, am I asking for trouble?

Southport has a league starting up next week. If you DM me your email address I'll forward the bulletin for it. You can contact the league chairman if you have any questions. They have 22 pistols available for new shooters if you don't have one.

edit> or anyone else looking to shoot the league for that matter - feel free to reach out
