Edward - I have the 4-inch SP101 that you are talking about. After being burned many years ago - I always take a flashlight with me to the LGS when I plan on buying a revolver. I haven't bought an S&W in years - so we're talking Ruger here. Both my 3-in and 4-in SP101's are perfect with...

I just put a 4-inch stainless GP-100 on layaway at LGS yesterday. I spent quite a bit of time checking it out. To me - it's noticeably better finished than others I have seen in the last few years (it's also very noticeably more expensive - $629!). I could not fault the finish anywhere - in...

Shipwreck - Thanks for your reply - Did you have any problems with scratches or damage when you shipped your slides to Tooltech? I'm not implying that they are careless - just wanted to get some feedback ... Thanks again!

Great looking Beretta! Is it Italian made or US? I really like the fact that the front site can be swapped out for tritium versus having to be drilled on all the others...

This may be a wives tale - but I have heard for many years that (at least Ruger anyway) revolver chambers were final-reamed one chamber at a time. Sounds a little far-fetched - but maybe the reamer lost a thousandth or so as it went from chamber to chamber. This would make even more sense if...

armoredman - Thank-you for the update - your video is great and very professionally done! I haven't started looking for a Kadet yet - but I guess I'll start with Midway. Noticed with interest that you said Kadet Kit "2" - I have to assume that this is what's offered nowadays. I still don't...

JDGray - Thanks and good news! I've never handled a Kadet kit but I think I remember that they're all-steel - unlike so many others using aluminum or pot metal. I keep hoarding .22LR so I need something to shoot it in ... ;) ... actually my "hoard" is pretty small by hoarder's standards.

I do have poor eyesight - but I can clearly see that ch47gunner has posted a pic with a Kadet next to his P-01. So - dumb question time - does the Kadet fit and function on the P-01? Thanks to this thread - and the fact that I have only one CZ (full size de-cocker) - I am definitely going to...

Q - I think you're in the ballpark and that price would be fair to the widow. I have a Double-Nine and I'm looking for a snubby High Standard. HS's really don't have much collector value, IMO, unless they're in VG or better condition with a box. I've been watching GB for quite a while - many...

Bill - here's a link to LW's site - they say all of their barrels are Gen 4 compatible. Big red letters on the page if you follow the link. I wish I had the money for a Gen 4!! https://www.lonewolfdist.com/Products.aspx?CAT=82 There are some warnings about using a 9mm recoil spring when...

Kabal - yes - you would be the person filling out the Form 6. They would mail the (probably approved) form back to you in a coupla weeks. Customs will want to see the form if you hand carry the grips in - just put a copy in the box if you mail them. For non-serial numbered parts - this isn't...

I just returned from Germany - having lived there 10+ years. I used the ATF Form 6 to bring several handguns back from there. And, I used several other Form 6's to bring back some pistol magazines. I've checked the ATF FAQ's page...

VooDoo - beautiful pistol and equally great photos. I have seen several 1903's where the serial number is fairly faint. So, the only thing I can guess is that some SN's were just lightly stamped back then. You mentioned engraving charges - did they re-engrave/deepen your SN - and anything...

mg - Thanks for the info – have you got quite a few rounds through your SW40? Would you recommend it and any problems or issues? Thanks ...

I see that the LGS has the S&W SD9VE's for $305 - kinda in my price range. Years ago - I bought a Glock 19 barrel at a gun show - hoping it would work in my (long since sold G23). I still have the G19 barrel - I heard that the Glock and old S&W Sigma barrels were interchangeable. Does anyone...
