MOD Outfitters

Available now https://www.modoutfitters.com/subsonic-red-762x39-cast-lead-component-bullet-.html

Added 2 new bullets to the website available to order:
Our ranch .358 158 RNFP (Lee mold) which works great in all of our revolvers AND importantly, feeds through our 1873 lever guns… not everything does.
We also offer it in Lyman No2 alloy which is generally considered premium lead for hunting

And a .45-70 / .458 socom bullet. 405 grn (usually drops more like 420) also available in Lyman No2

We are never going to be the cheapest cast bullet you can buy. What we do different than most is options.

You get a choice of alloy. We can do pure lead for black powder use, range lead for harder lead and economy or Lyman No2 for serious use and hunting.

You get a choice of powder coat or conventional l**e. In powder coat I can do Red Queen Red or Clear Matte. For conventional l**e we offer Carnauba Blue and SPG for Black powder use

Typically when you buy cast lead bullets, you don’t get options like that. I can also custom size them down, or leave them unsized if you need them tight.

I do it because I like to do it, but I won’t do it for free and I don’t do it in bulk. These are done by hand, not with a machine.

If you’re into that, take a look:

I’ll never understand why people buy SA guns with fixed sights, and don’t take the time to file them in. So many people just try and live with them shooting inches away from POA. Especially on percussion guns, which tend to shoot really high. SAA clones tend to shoot low. On open top percussion guns, you file the hammer notch to get it dialed in. On SAA clones, pinch frames etc, you file the front.
This gun was shooting 6” low at 10 yards. Tell me how that is useful in the slightest? Guns need to shoot where they look. I generally over the course of days make small file adjustments until I’m happy with it.
This one is getting close. You can see how much I had to take off that front. It used to be rounded.

There is always a small file in the Kubota, for those minute adjustments.

I have two classic inbound ready for a new home.
If you’ve ever wanted to try it, percussion revolvers are economical and fun to shoot. If you’re bored with dumping mags and the cost of it, of nothing new under the sun, just the same s**t in a different finish, if you’re wanting to add a historical, but new to you dimension to your shooting, give this a try.

1851 Navy .36 Caliber 7.5” - The OG gunfighters handgun. The first really practical belt carry pistol with enough power and reliability to do the job. It is without a doubt, my favorite handgun to shoot for pure shooting joy. Sam C**t’s masterpiece. Survived well into the cartridge era due to safely being able to hold 6 rounds due to a safety stop on the cylinder, as opposed to the usual 5 in a SAA and other cartridge guns. You cant reload fast enough to make up for being dead. Nothing points and shoots like a Navy C**t. Absolutely natural and balanced. Super low recoil, sips powder and lead. Just an absolute dream to own and shoot. The human body has not evolved past being susceptible to it, even to this day. Think big, well balanced .38 spl and you’ll be in the neighborhood.

1860Army .44 Caliber 8” - Born for want of a bigger gun and more power. It still balances well and does offer both those things. Many people like the slightly larger than Navy / SAA grip frame. Also very mellow to shoot, even with the extra power. Civil War surplus made this gun an unsung workhorse of westward migration. John Wesley Hardin, Porter Rockwell and countless others swore by the 1860 .44 and used them to deadly effect.

Think about it….
Much of what you hear about the post civil war period and westward migration took place prior to the mass introduction and adoption of cartridge guns. These revolvers did the work while other guns get the credit from hollywood. Lots of s**t happened in the old west before 1873….
These guns were there.
Affordable to buy, economical to shoot. The fundamentals are all the same. If you are so inclined, these guns also offer a level of user supportability in terms of components to shoot them, that modern guns simply cannot touch. It is entirely possible, affordable and easy enough for the average handloader to make your own bullets, powder and percussion caps. How can they stop you then?
A Navy C**t with a conical bullet, black powder made from fertilizer and toilet paper, and primers made of Red bull cans will seem pretty fu***ng awesome when the average normie cant get small pistol primers or whatever latte mocha Vihtavuori powder doesn’t make his STI dirty.
Get into it with me.
Inventory is on the way, and they are posted to the site.

This is one of the most memorable days here at the ranch. Sandy decided to get us a new metal detector for our good weather walks in the evenings. As usual, she did some research and picked a good one. It’s a Minelab 440, at around 250 bucks it’s still entry level, but it’s GOOD entry level. Not the usual big box bulls**t.
We took a little walk on the Pony Express / Mormon Pioneer, California Gold rush trail. Covered some new ground, but also some ground we had previously gone over with our cheap “Bounty Hunter” metal detectors we got when we first bought this place. We own about 1200 yards of history.
Tonight, I got to hold some of it in my hand.
Some of you will recognize what I’m holding in the pictures. Some won’t.
That is a .44 Henry Rimfire cartridge case. I found on the trail after work this evening. About 160 years ago back in time and 6 inches under the dirt.
A cartridge fired by the first mass produced, commercially successful and fielded in combat, individual repeating firearm. If you know fi****ms, you know about the 1860 Henry repeater, and it’s place in fi****ms, and United States history.
The civil war, Greasy Grass / Little Bighorn, and countless other engagements across the frontier, both large and small. Lawman, native american and outlaw, civilian scout, frontiersmen, settlers…
It was the AR-15 of the frontier. It’s tubular magazine held an astounding for the time, 15 / 16 rounds.
It was also chambered in a few handguns and the 1866 Wi******er, another gun that did quite a bit of work on the frontier… on all sides.
Note the distinctive dual firing pin strikes on the rim of the case. Henry or 1866 rifle.

Hickock drill this AM. 15 rpunds supported 10 yards. 1851 Mavy cartridge conversion to .38 spl. 158 RNFP

If you shoot percussion revolvers, In addition to pure lead conical bullets, and round balls in both .36 and .44 but now also 100% wool felt revolver wads made from our flock here at Red Queen Ranch. They are available l**ed and unl**ed. The l**ed version uses 50% Lamb tallow from our ranch, and 50% beeswax (also from the ranch, depending on how the bee’s did that year).
Live on the site, available here:

Recovered .44 Kerr bullets (pure lead) from base of my steel. Along with one of our new “Red Queen’s Revolver Wads”.
I’ve shot about 100 of then now, and they work perfectly in both .36 and .44
They have a l**e side and a dry side. Dry side down on powder. Helps keep their shape, and the l**e def keeps the wad from burning to prevent chain fires. I’m quite certain that is providing some powder softening benefit as well and probably some bullet l**e benefits as well. Very Slight l**e star at muzzle.thats about as much l**e as I can put without major powder contamination.
L**e is 50/50 Lamb Tallow from our sheep, and Beeswax.
