I would take it to a gunsmith. He can check everything in that revolver, including the timing of the pawls that rotate the cylinder.

Only buy the most (in your opinion) stellar motor oil for your high performance car, but then try to run it on 85-87 octane regular and let the engine computer change the ignition timing and fuel richness to avoid engine knock. Buy spark plugs at bargain prices on eBay, then worry that they are...

I just use high pressure water from a power washer. No chemicals, no residue, blows the nests to smithereens.

My stomach prefers filet mignon, but it will get by on hamburger.

Don't eat much meat, but drink 750ml of Beefeaters daily.

Some are willing to run 87 in a car where 91-93 is recommended, in order to save money. But are unwilling to cheap out on motor oil when Mobil 1 is recommended. Did a car ever "wear out" from using the non specified brand of oil, but instead using a less pricey oil of similar viscosity...

Lots of folks making Nike products for peanut wages. $30K is a fortune to the average worker in, say, Bangladesh.

In the old days, the oil came gushing out of the ground, often under its own pressure. Recoverable reserves using the technology of the past left 2/3 of the oil unrecoverable. What we are now recovering, due to newer "fracking" techniques, is the oil that was originally left behind by the old...

The faster you pump it out, the faster you deplete your future proven reserves. And when your proven reserves become depleted, you then become dependent on imports. This is what happened after WW2 up to the early 1970s. To me, it would only make sense to pump it out if you believed that the...

If the pension plan is underfunded, taking money out as a lump sum makes it even more underfunded. If you leave the money in the pension fund, they hope to be more solvent in the future when they will be paying you.

Years ago, when I used to buy vinyl in the days long before CDs, on the first play I would record it to my Crown reel to reel, and put the record away. I would then listen to the tape instead for my entertainment. Later, when cassettes and cassette decks improved, I recorded on cassette...

Yokohama tires are a good balance of cost, safety and performance.

The nature of electronics is they seldom "wear out". If defective, they fail early and often entirely.

On taking delivery on my Corvette, I immediately replaced the high dusting Brembo pads with no dust high performance PowerStop Z26 pads. A popular change for Corvette owners tired of brake dust.

I am watching the Yankees - Red Sox game on the Fox channel Sox are up 2-0 against the Evil Empire.

Mitsubishi has been in the American market directly for over 40 years, and indirectly even longer selling cars through Chrysler Corp as Chrysler branded cars. What makes you think they are likely to exit the market? The only legitimate reason for concern might be that the cars sold in the...

Actor Treat Williams was killed on his motorcycle when a left turner didn't see him. The ironic thing is, the car driver knew Treat and claimed he was a friend. This all happened in Dorset Vermont, a higher end Vermont town.

i used to drive in SCCA sprint races back in the early 1970s. Everybody back then used non street legal Goodyear racing tires.

Get a pet mongoose and always bring it with you when you drive the car.

in 1950, I was a 3 year old. My Father drove a 1940 Buick Roadmaster. It was a large, roomy car. No seat belts, of course. If I sat in the front seat, it was in the middle, between my parents. The only thing I could see was the tops of trees going by, and street lights we were going under...
