Hi guys, I've been looking everywhere for a specific model of Arsenal AK (folding stock, sight mount, model SLR 106FR) to no avail. I finally tried to contact Arsenal through their website, but something was down and my attempt failed. They have no email address listed. Does anyone know if they...

Another great save by this forum, thank you 'Chaser. I just checked up on this again and carry in a vehicle here in a Maine is concealed no matter what. Ignorance is, needless to say, no excuse, and I shudder to think of the possible outcome. Now that I (thankfully) know, holster choice seems to...

RC, Excellent point, I am all too aware of the extent of my sovereignty on my land, but I occasionally have to jump into the truck and fetch things from town, or visit with friends. I want to ensure that I'm not committing a felony while doing so.

O. Sparks, Thank you for the recommendation, Madcap is correct. It is a 1984 SS Blackhawk with a 6" bbl and a Hogue monogrip. About as durable as I could make it, almost more of a 'tool' than a weapon. Being essentially a SAA, time on the draw is not going to be near as quick as something...

I'm a farmer in New England :o

Hadn't seen that, thank you for the referral.

Thank you for the swift reply. I am located in Maine, which is generally a pretty sensible state when it comes to OC and the Second Amendment, but there have been recent miscarriages of justice in the city of Portland, well below the Volvo line, so to speak. In Maine, the further North you go...

Is it at all legally dodgy to OC with a flap holster (SimplyRugged brand)? I don't have my CCW yet and want to make sure I'm not "concealing". Very rear of the grip shows, not much else.

Blackhawk it is 4.62 inch, stainless, .357, and I'm looking for an extra 9mm cylinder. I'll post pics as soon as I can get my grubby hands on it. Many thanks again for all of the help, sounds as if I might not be the only one fortunate enough to benefit from the great advice offered in this...

MavRacer, That's an incredible track record. What parts, if any, have you replaced?

You Texans sure know how to do utilitarian in style. I'll never forget visiting an old friend in Abilene, TX and learning that truck ownership is about learning what you can't fit on an F-250 :eek:. I've already been beat around by my LCR enough, probably why I'm looking into something with a...

Many thanks for the thoughtful replies-- I think I see a trend here. The truth is that this is meant to be a functional future heirloom of sorts. No matter what, it's going to ride in a SimplyRugged flap holster and be cleaned in the wee hours of the morning, before the livestock are fed. I have...

CraigC, thank you for your well worded, concise answer. Exactly what I've come to expect from this wonderful community of like-minded enthusiasts .

SAO failures I appreciate the swift replies. Still torn: absolute reliability is paramount for this application, but I have no familiarity whatsoever with the SAA type weapon. I suppose it might be better to stick with what I.know, though the .357 to 9mm cylinder conversion is a nice extra. If...

A quick question for the wheelgun gurus: Though both of these models are ostensibly very reliable, would the Blackhawk naturally be more durable simply because of its SAO design? This is against GP100, which, though just as well built, is a DA/SA. The intended purpose, for my novel, is as...

Willard Mitt Romney has a proven track record to show he feels about firearms: he even created the Massachusetts AWB. The man claims to have been a hunter "practically all my life", but has never purchased a hunting license. If you want to vote purely on 2nd amendment lines, neither the...

I'm generally a pretty calm person, but if the man who said this: "Deadly assault weapons have no place in Massachusetts," Romney said, at a bill signing ceremony with legislators, sportsmen's groups and gun safety advocates. "These guns are not made for recreation or self- defense. They are...

This is my next long gun purchase, it looks like the perfect woods gun for my favored haunts. If you don't mind me asking, I'm curious about your chosen setup. What kind of sling and stock pouch (?) is that? Also, I've heard that the length of the barrel can really maximize the potential of the...

There are some Coonans for sale here on THR, just to let you know. I'd congratulate you effusively if I weren't posting from my phone.

Hello everyone, Many thanks for your advice. I've received some offers of sale, and PMs are inbound. Taking into consideration what I've read on this thread, I've decided on the newer series of rifle, serial number #580 and up. I figure that I can accustrut and build up from there. Glock...
