Mayor Daley is shaking like a leaf right now. If you heard him on the news, he is sounding so pathetic I actually laughed out loud and disturbed other co-workers. He thinks he knows everything, but pretty soon, his bombast and ineefectiveness will catch up with him... On another note, DOWN...

I think this would be the Langenhan. In fact, I feel pure rage and anguish just thinking about that chunk of....well.. Let's put it this way. The Langenhan made a Lorcin (in .380) look like a Sig P210 in looks and in quality. That is all.

That is an unusual symbol on the stock. It could be a simple issuance code of some kind but you would have to verify this with someone who can read Japanese... The picture quality is such that I cannot even see if there is a Chrysanthemum on it, which could help me identify, quite possibly...

Good Evening Ladies and Gentlemen, I have repaired the "small spring" issue as mentioned in a previous thread on my Speed Six (the cylinder ejector spring broke), and I am looking to get nice looking grips to help dress it up. Can anyone suggest a company that can manufacture a nice set of...

Hey, do you think we could change the date to 1915? That way, I would carry a Chauchat, for the sake of reliability :)

This is a very easy question. I would have either a Webley-Fosbery or a Webley RIC (Royal Irish Constabulary) revolver, in. 455 of course . I would also have a handlebar mustache, and my wife would have died of typhoid in 1908 from drinking from the Thames river. How wonderous was the...

Hi Jim, This "small spring issue" involves a small threaded rod that slides into the cylinder and is supposed to have a spring around it, from what I have been told. Without this spring, I cannot get the cylinder to swing out for loading. I know this could potentially be a big pain, but...

Thanks for the reply, Jim. The only bits of info that I were able to get so far were in regards to the load, and to not use anything beyond the factory load as mentioned by you (and printed on the RH side of the barrel). Hopefully I should be able to find out who did the conversion; I have to...

Good Evening Ladies and Gents, Although I have been around firearms and have been reading about them for well over 10 years, I have just recently acquiring them for range shooting/personal/home protection. I am seriously disillusioned with the gun-grabbers here in IL state and I am hoping...

Good Evening Ladies and Gentlemen, First off, I am a new user so please restrain yourself if I say something that is ignorant: If I do this, it is because I am still learning :) At any rate, I recently picked up a Ruger Speed Six that has been converted from .357 to .44 special. However, I...
