Thinking of adding the cleaning rod trap to my Cimarron. Been eyeballing the parts from VTI for the trap from the Uberti 1876, and wondering if I can modify and use those, along with modifying the existing buttplate on the '73. Anyone willing to share the opening measurements and location from an original buttplate, along with the location and measurements for the spring retaining screw? Many thanks!

I don't recall when I joined CAS-L, probably '96 but maybe '97. I didn't make the switch to CASCity for a while after the list went dark--lurked a bit here and on The Open Range for more than a decade before signing up here.

I knew Herters ammo or the great percentage of it was of European manufacture. NC Ranger mentioned Sel & Bel. I have shot a large number of various caliber (bottleneck rifle) made by them and never had any issues. They seem to have a pretty good reputation as ammo manufacturers. Hard to say about Mog's (OP) 45 Colt stuff.
Present day Herters is a far cry from the Old Herters of yesteryear when they operated out of Waseca, Minn. Loved that place, ordered alot of items from them. A Saturday afternoon trip with friends from our N Iowa town to Waseca was always interesting-around a 2 hr fun filled journey. We still talk about some of those trips.
Herter family sold name rights/business years ago, never the same World Famous, Model Perfect, Outdoors Man Approved, Non-Drugstore Outdoorsman, Alaskan Guide Approved products now as they had back in the 60's-70's. Loved reading that catalog!!! Bought three of them at juck stores, one given to me-Blasts from the past

Brownell's has them and if you have a good line of credit at the bank they have large, small and some magnum. Outlandish pries but they do have them. almost tipped my pacemaker Respectfully Bunk

I was just wondering if the Marshall has dates available on when the Cass List started, and when it converted to Cass City? Just wondering in my old age.
