I just bought a 590 w/parkerized finish. Apparently they still make them.

If you're in the SE Alabama, SW Georgia or Florida panhandle region, let me know. I below to a couple of clubs in the area and we can pretty much set you up with anything you might wish to try.

Folks: try Howel's Gun Shop at 334-693-5175. I just ordered a 590 w/ghost ring, 8 shot capacity and standard synthetic stock. He had to to me inside a week. Location is County Road 22, Headland, Alabama. His prices are excellent, beating anyone else in the area. Bobby is retired and...

The barrels fall off after 7 or 8 shots. I'll give you $75 for it and save you the pain. :D

To make a long story short, I bought a Rossi 642(? 2" .357mag 6 shot stainless) a couple of years ago. It was made after the Taurus buy out. Had severe timing problems. It made 3 trips back to Braztech, never got fixed. I wound up running it across a band saw rather than see someone get...

This is the second time I have read about this type of issue with Ruger GPs within the last two or three weeks. Trend developing? Not snipeing. I'm a devoted GP141 fan. Got one, had it for several years and love it. But two reports of this same type of defect in a relatively short period...

Put me down for a P3-AT.

I'm no expert (although I did stay at a Holiday Inn a couple of years ago), but have you checked the bullet diameter for correct size?

I, too, buy the Zero's from Roze. 158 grain JHP for .357 magnum 230/185 grain JHP and FMJ for .45auto 180 grain JHP for .40S&W and 125 grain FMJ and JHP for 9mm Never any problem with any of them. Delivery is usually within two days of placing order. Roze is/are great people to...

Hoppes puts out a product called a 'Tornado' brush. Works well on the residue caused by shooting .38spl cartridges in a .357magnum. You can also try using a normal bore brush chucked into a drill, frequently refresh with solvent. If you reload, you can avoid the problem by loading reduced...

The Smith 686 (L frame) is the closest match to the Ruger GP. I have both the Smith 686 and the Ruger KGP141 (stainless, full underlug, 4" barrel). I use both in steel plate shoots and place well with both. After break in, the revolvers are pretty evenly matched with a very slight edge to the...

S&W also makes a couple of larger frame snubbies, the 66 (K frame) and the 686 (K frame). They both pack 6 rounds of .357magnum and have the 2 1/8" tubes.

You just screwed up! I did the same. The 30's a terrific little pistol. The next thing I knew the 36 was calling my name seductively. I couldn't resist. It also is one hell of a little pistol. If you can get by with only 7 rounds, it's worth putting on your list. I now have both.

I used to carry a Ruger P94 in a Don Hume #715. Now carry a Glock 23 or 26 in the same type holster. Carry about 3:30.

I join several others in saying that the P3AT interests me and I find a .380 in such a small, compact package desirable. However, the reliability of the little pistols leaves something to be desired in a carry weapon. I'll continue to wait until the NIB reliability improves. I did have a...

Welcome to the downside of MarkII ownership. Field stripping becomes easier over time as you discover the 'little' things that make reassembly easier (like downing a six pack or two in preparation). The inherent accuracy and reliability makes up for the initial frustration of coping of...

It is claimed that after a certain serial number all 'fixes' are in. Would you mind providing the alpha character and fist two digits of the serial number on your particular model? Thanks. This is a credibility check for Kel-Tec in general.

In answer to your question, no, I do not have a problem with 'finger pinching'. Hope you figure it out, the GP is a pretty good platform. I use a GP141 for steel plate shoots and it performs wonderfully. As already stated, the trigger smoothes out with use. It's about the same as the trigger...

4.8 grains of Alliant Green Dot behind a 180 grain JHP or FMJ (90% load). 4.5 grains of the same powder makes for a nice, mild load.
