GONE TO SLUSHLOVER2

Here are some odd ones...Ancien inverse bar end brake levers! I bought a box of these suckers off of ebay France a couple of years ago. Put together a decent set for myself and the rest just sit here. They don't use a standard brake cable. You would cut the barrel off the lever end and use a pinch bolt setup to secure the cable in the lever. They also require internal cable routing just like the CLB ones that pop up from time to time. There is a completish set and parts for more. They polish up after sanding and look pretty cool IMO.

First PM gets 'em. Shipping on me in the US.

^^ I like the box next to the brake levers too. I see several RDs, a FD and a Campy downtube shift lever.

My reloading bench was a bright place to take the picture. I didn't notice the brass there.

Wow! Good eye. Those are 30.06. I just loaded 50 of them after not being able to buy supplies for so long.

Nothing exotic. It's a Marlin XL7. I could not find any .308 caliber bullets for a while.

No offense, but it is generally never a good idea to shoot someone else's handloads.

If you're a high volume reloader and match shooter, the last year has been problematic WRT getting components. There's been a bit of a run on, and supply has not kept up with demand. Prices have skyrocketed, as well. I planned ahead - I have plenty of everything, but finding primers especially has been a pain for many. And our youth program has been struggling to find .22 ammo to keep the kids shooting, although that is now beginning to ease up.

Ever shoot the Garand matches at Camp Perry?

Most of my range time is spent with friends whom I would trust with my life, so shoting their hand loads dosent bother me at all, would I shoot the 45-70's we bought at a gun show the other day, no but those were bought for the cases.




A friend of mines son came in second up there last year, Freaking Marine corps shooters. My M1 came from a guy that is big with t hat shooting program up there he has offered to get a couple of us up there this year to work in the buts.

What is it with C&V and firearms? Why do so many threads devolve into a discussion about them?

Just making small talk. C&V people seem to be some of the most civilized people on the internet.

The World Sport was pending shipping for some time, but is no longer available. The Varsity frameset is. Thank you for your interest.

If you are on the fence about taking this, there is a yellow Varsity fork on eBay right now for something like $5...

Thanks for the endorsement. The Varsity frame actually comes with the fork, I just forgot to include it in the picture.

Schwinn Le Tour cranks. Small chain ring has shark teeth. Not easy to find a replacement ring in that the holes
are smaller then usual. I believe it is a 130 BCD. Yours for postage. Putting it out because it seems like it is pretty
unusual. If no interest, I will easily find a place for the left arm.

GONE TO A GOOD HOME!

'72 Raleigh Sports. I've been thinning the herd, and this needs to go. It's got the requisite surface rust on the chrome, the fenders are a bit out of whack, the Brooks saddle is cracking but may be salvageable, and it obviously needs a complete overhaul. It's all there, though, and it's functioning. I did repack the front hub with new grease and bearing balls, because it inexplicably had none when I bought it. Unfortunately, I also snapped the stem clamp bold, so you'd have to replace that.

23" ctc. Local pickup in NWNJ.

The seller was an odd fellow. He seems to have had keen marketing insight, but he was obviously not in communication with his pricing department! I gave him $5 for his effort.

Joe, it's a bit less pristine that it may appear in the photo, but it's a nice enough view. The fog is obscuring Route 46, which runs along the southern shore of the lake.
