    Anybody shooting their 38 S&Ws?

    38 s&w I have several, a Victory like pictured that I shoot the most. Also a newer j-frame 2" Terrier and a Model 31? I believe 4" j-frame that I have shot a bit too. I like these bullets and find they shoot very well in all I have tried. I use Trail Boss powder as I find it works great for...

    Selecting a good 9mm Range Shooter…

    9mm range gun For what you describe I would look at a Tanfoligo Witness match, I have owned several in different calibers and in the $550.00 range I do not think anything else comes close. All steel, S/A triggers and lots of round capacity. The CZ is very similar but will cost more and...

    Sako Rifle

    416 Rem Sako I have to say, I am getting some great feedback here. The gun is so nice I am starting to think perhaps I should keep it,the first thought I had is why have two different 416 rifles , but one is a single shot Ruger and one is the nicest looking Bolt gun I have ever owned. Anyway...

    Sako Rifle

    Hi, I recently got a Sako rifle, off of the internet , it was listed as a 416 Rigby, which I have one of all ready in a Ruger #1. When I picked it up at my dealers I did not think to read caliber designation right away and have now realized it is a 416 Remington Magnum. I was sort of upset and...

    cleaning question

    Cleaning I have had very good luck with hydrogen peroxide. Now, this was on a 45 Colt , but I plugged barrel with a foam ear plug, then let it sit for 10-15 minutes with the peroxide in it, the lead came out in big strips, it seemed to completely loosen it from bore. Probably harder on a 22...

    Shot a USPSA match with a 500 S&W

    500 s&w Wow am I impressed, I have a 4" and shoot it quite a bit with either 320 lead or 350 plated Berrys. But, I only use 23 grains of power Pistol 40 plus grains of H-110 You are a "he man" , that is not that far behind a factory load, you must have some real balls of fire !!

    High Standard Sentinal Mk-IV .22WMR....

    High Standard Sentinal I had one of these for awhile, seemed to misfire quite often. Took it to a local gunsmith, he told me it needed a new cylinder and was not worth fixing Later on used it as extra bait in a trade with an acquaintance with full disclosure of its problems. Asked about it...

    Need some Taurus advice.

    Raging Bull 454 I own one. I like it. I have 50 plus revolvers mostly Smiths, Colt comes in second and taurus is last behind Ruger. I have owned a Freedom Arms 454 Casull, I did not like shooting it much. It was great for hollowpoint 250 -300 type loads. It was very annoying for my lead...

    why no love for the anaconda?

    Anaconda I agree with The Captain, they are nice, they are more rare then Model 629 s I would not say they are better , I would say they are almost the same. I believe that all the newer Colts from the mark Threes onward feel more like Smiths to me then Pythons and other earlier Colts This...

    would you? Buy a S&W 29 for...

    Smith 29 A lot of people seem to not like the long barrels. I do most of my shooting at a indoor range and like the long barrel. I find it makes the gun , yes a 44 magnum a pussycat to shoot. Mine is a 629-1 That has been polished up to a Ultimate Bright Stainless type finish.

    Ruger 44 mag Super blackhawk I noticed that your link was for a Stainless Model, I have owned blued Blawkhawk in 45 Colt and a Blued Super Blackhawk in 44 mag , sold both , didn't like something about them. Then I bought a Stainless Blackhawk in 45 Colt, I found it to be much more to my liking...

    Colt Revolver Questions

    Colt Revolvers I have a somewhat different opinion then most around here. I like both Smiths and Colts a lot. I believe it is important to understand the differences between models and brands. I like Smiths partially because of there diversity for collecting. Colt has nothing like the Model...

    Death Threats I have had a ex-employee who was recently fired make Death threats against myself and my production Manager. Everyone I spoke to insisted, like most here, that I go to the police. I was shocked to find out that the police , at least here in Minneapolis do not seem to care at...

    S&W 52-2. Should I?

    52-2 You are asking the same questions I did a couple of months ago. My conclusion, I bought a Model 952 no dash. I believe the triggers are very similar and I thought it would be more practical. The price on mine was $1040.00 plus tax at the local Cabela's. I bought three revolvers from...
