A really nice looking, somewhat unusual [model 10's with that finish aren't seen too often] K frame Smith, and a heavy barrel to boot! That's a plus, IMO. Clean it well, including the trigger mechanism, lube the trigger mechanism slightly and I'll bet you'll be very pleased with how well it'll...

Rock Island 1911's are great .45's and I'll bet you will soon find that out. After you run a small amount of factory ammo through it you'll want to reload for it- if you don't already do so. Enjoy your new "Rock". They're an extremely good value for your money. Buckshot Bill

Absolutely nothing wrong with Rock Island 1911's. The are a great value for your money. Buckshot Bill

Ranger Roberts PM received. Much obliged, Buckshot Bill

I need to put an order in also. Would someone please PM me the code? Thank you, Bill

Wanted to let everyone know the Acog mount arrived today and looks great. Thanks again, esheato.

Howdy everyone. Imagine my surprise when I logged on this am and found out I had won! Thanks to esheato for having such a generous Christmas spirit, and let us all not forget the reason for the season. MERRY CHRISTMAS, everyone! Buckshot Bill

Please put my name in the hat. Thanks for having such a generous Christmas spirit. Buckshot Bill

MMMMMM! Fresh pork sausage!:)

Wow, BCCL, those grips with that beautiful color case hardening really looks nice! I actually think the Ivory/American holly grips look better on a blued gun, because of the contrast. They sure complement each other and you have a 6 shooter to really be proud of. Buckshot Bill

I picked one up a few years ago and have been very pleased with it. I did have the standard GI sights changed out with a set of Novak's [3 white dots with the wide notch rear] that I really like. You can probably guess why on the wide notch rear sight-[old scudder syndrome], but they work very...

BigBang, good writeup and thanks for the pictures! The pics really make it easier to understand what you are describing. The rrages screw kit upgrade looks like a good thing to install. What is your impression/opinion of the screw upgrade kit? Nice job, and thanks for your help, Buckshot Bill

Nushif, they're good guns and a great value for those that are wise enough to understand that. Try 1.250 on your length for your reloads, that length works well for me. One other tip- Rocks seem to run the best when they're wet. Keep 'er well lubed and she'll be happier and so will you.;)...

Well, the engraving on the first pistol looks well done, but that's overkill times 10.:eek: I can appreciate subtle, quality tattoos, but that first pistol reminds me of the tattoo freak that has his head/face area loaded up with tats because he ran out of skin everywhere else. My wife's...

I'm voting with Oro and batmann. The chance to pick up a nice [if indeed it IS a nice one] 3'' Smith and cash to boot doesn't come along every day. I'll bet you'll both be happy. If it were me, I would've already "pulled the trigger" on this deal! Good luck, Buckshot Bill
