Thanks for the info on the Marlin 600. I picked one up a few years back at a pawn shop in a package deal with a Savage 110 30-06. I hadn't heard of a Model 600 only the Model 60, but I couldn't tell the difference so I told them to wrap them up, got both for $200 out the door. The 600 had a...

3" inch S&W 681. Round butt. Satin finish.

First handgun was a S&W Model 681. Very good gun. Still have it. First pistol was a CZ40B, that was regretfully traded.

I also agree with Linkinlog. I have a RIA and have bought some Fusion parts off of ebay. So far I have only swapped the slide stop and the barrel bushing. The bushing needed a little fitting, but it is more accurate now. I also have a trigger group from Fusion that I haven't got around to...

The Bersa's are a good buy. They are a good quality gun at a reasonable price. They are a decent size for CC and mine has been totally reliable. The factory mags are kind of pricey though.

I don't think anyone has mentioned the S&W Model 681. It is the fixed sight version of the 686. I have a 4" that was my first revolver and it is still the gun that sees the most range time. There is also a blued version, the Model 581. Great guns.

my first five 1) S&W 681 (.357) 2) S&W Model 13, nickel (.357) 3) Taurus 94 (.22lr) 4) CZ 40 (.40) 5) Bersa 380 Still have the 681 & the Bersa.

I saw a Marlin 600 today. It was a semi-auto 22lr. It had a plain stock, micro-groove barrel, basic sights and a daisy scope. I think they wanted $70. Does anyone know the difference between the Marlin 600 vs the Marlin 60? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks G

I carry about 75% of the time. I need to get a good pocket gun, so I can raise the average. G

First gun I shot was with the Boys Scouts. It was a .22 bolt. First gun I purchased was a S&W 681, .357 magnum. I still take this with me to the range more than any other gun. Lots of fun! G

Nice! Just got back from the local dealer and they had one in stock! Very nice pistol. The grip size was very manageable, and I have small-to-medium size hands. It is hard to believe that this thing hold 13 in the magazine! This should be a hot seller! They were asking $529 and it...

Thanks! Hello Ala Dan, Thanks for the information! Erich, Thanks for the link and the good advice! I will check through the info! Thanks again Gary

Hello; I just picked up a Model 36-1, 3 inch, RB! It is my first J frame and it seems to be in great condition! Haven't had a chance to take it out yet...the SA seems very nice but DA is very heavy. I will shoot it a bit before I change anything...Any advise on how to lighten up DA and...

Concealed weapon permit today!! It took almost 2 months, but today as I type this I am legally armed with my Kahr K40, comfortably on my hip! It is a good day!

I had a 4" model 94. It was blued with the stock wood grips on it. It pointed great, was very accurate...but had one of the hardest d/a trigger pulls. Single action was great, but it would wear me out to shoot 100 rds d/a.
