CAS City Classifieds / Re: Haenel-made German Police Revolver, single action Nagant pattern
« Last post by RoyceP on September 22, 2023, 11:22:36 AM »
Those revolvers are chambered for 7.62 Nagant ammo. It is close to 32 WCF but not quite the same. The Nagant bullets are specific to that revolver. Ammunition might be commercially available as it was a sort of popular round overseas.

Might be the stuff: https://www.sgammo.com/product/762x38r-ammo/50-round-box-762x38r-nagant-revolver-98-grain-fpj-prvi-partizan-ammo-ppr71-or-p

Here is the link to a video I found about the USS Arizona:

It's done with animation and IMHO, it was very informative.

As an aside, The USS Arizona guns were recovered. 
The massive guns and turrets were moved to locations on Oahu. The triple-gunned turret named “Battery Arizona” was placed at Kahe Point.  The other Arizona turret, named “Battery Pennsylvania,” at Mokapu Point.

The USS Nevada (BB-36) a veteran of Pearl Harbor on Dec 7th., received another trio Arizona’s guns,
Shipyard crews installed the Arizona’s guns from turret number two into Nevada’s turret number one position in the fall of 1944. The Nevada was back at sea to shell Iwo Jima and then Okinawa in 1945.

The Winchester Model 1876 / Re: Loading Data for the 45/75

Mine is the so called Uberti Chamber. The shoulder is quite a bit forward than normal.  My internet is down so I'm on my phone, don't have the pic of the difference for a couple more days. I'll post it when I can.

I know my original 76 in 45-75 has a different looking chamber than the Uberti and my Uberti is supposed to be the more updated (correct dimension) chamber but they are noticably different just looking at fired brass. The original fired brass is more rounded, coke bottle looking shape rather than sharp edges of shoulder very much like it appears yours to be. I can't say I've tried to rechamber a fired case without running through a sizer die.
