i think the one on the gun is an "8". And the crown is a bit different.

What could that crown over letters be on the grip? I couldnt find that symbol anywhere on the internet. Additionally, what would the R.Jackson mean under the barrel? I see there was a gun dealer in london around that time that was called "R. Jackson". I see it listed on some auction piece...

Greetings all - I had a thread about 6 years ago in this section where i was trying to identify a 1851 Navy for my friend who found it among his father's personal effects when he died in 1989. I tried to bump the old thread but it is too old. I figured with the new members in the last 6 years, a...

Still trying to figure out what this mystery piece is:

Model 10 4" Round Butt, .38 Special, S&W catalog grips. The grips started life smooth, but my agency required checkered grips, so i took a round file and a hammer to them over 20 years ago.

Yeah, it is chrome or nickel plated. And I just noticed a strange stamp on the right grip. It looks like a crown with an E8 under it. It almost looks like those proof stamps they use in England. Anyone ever see one of those on an 1851?

My friend found this old Colt among his fathers belongings after he died a few years back. He said he has had it since sometime in the '60s. Can anyone tell me what it is and maybe a general idea what it would sell for?

Kahr P380 great gun I had a few problems with my right out of the box P380 the first day I got it. I must say that it was a very discouraging experience. Right from the first round, i experienced jams with numerous failure to feed instances. At first, the magazines would not feed with more than...
