Early.44 Special Black Powder Factory Loads

In c/2006 I bought this TR SPECIAL from an owner who had not shot the recommned 500 rounds. I completed the recommend break-in and arrived at full reliability which it has demonstrated ever since. The performance and accuracy prompted me to have Baer apply Hard Chrome. Some time ago, I got the...

WW 630 Mid 1980s. This was listed as a 38 Special load in Speer Manuals from the period. Standard Primers and 146-158 grain lead bullets. I u sed it with the keith 358429 HP (430) with standard primers and believed the handbook about velocities in the mid 1000 fps range from 6" barrels...

In the early 2000s, Ruger .45 Colt cylinder mouths measuared .449-inch. The forcing cone/ bore was larger- at least nominally .452. For satisfactory accuracy, people were reaming the chambers for a better fit with the bore and it worked. I sent a cylinder to guy with a reamer and he greatly...

Ruger SP101 .357 A view toward Practicality suggests filling out your dance card with extra durable Rugers before indulging in other products. I currently have a couple of GP100s and two SP101s having bought the 2.25-inch bbl model in 1995 just before the Texas CHL law went into effect. While a...

My SP/GP 100 revolvers have been around for a couple of decades. Recently, I picked up a new SP101 4.2" barrel and noticed the MIM Trigger and hammer and the modification of the ejector star. When did this happen? Does it extend to the other Ruger DA revolvers?

The originals used the tradition Colt-type action with "safety", half cock and full-cock hammer positions,. Early ones often had plum-colored loading gates-Ruger not quite being clear on the blueing process and forcing cones tha seemed to be threaded-or at least rough enough to produce much...

Neat little pistol from the Pre-1911 period when semi autos were beginning to take shape. They were the General Officer Pistol for quite a while but before that, Mark Twain had one There are quite a few of them in circulation as well as the 380 that came along in 1908. The limited edition from...

I've had a number of SBH revolvers over the years-still have my first one from c: 1977. They have been extra reliable and my only problem with them came with use of the early gunwriter loads using 300 grain bullets- eventual end-float and launched ejector assemblies. With reasonable loads, they...

I have an old 870 Wingmaster marked TB-trap barrel. The receiver is circa 1960s. Would this be compatable with the "super magnum" chambered barrels? Thanks

The grips: The Lipsey's images i have see have these faux gutta percha grips but with the inset Phoenix medallion. Is this variation significant of anything?

Action: Advise US Senators and other appropriate advocates to request that The Legislature and/or President Trump by executive order to compel federal agencies to respect Texas legislation on Right To Carry. Not only are federal agencies posted but the US Army Corps of Engineers has illegally...

I have a Swedish 96/38 with a 1908 receiver. The bolt does not match but headspace is just fine. The barrel, near the muzzle is marked 96/38 with no distinct date or serial number-making me wonder if the barrel was replaced rather than cut down during the modification. The Disc is triangled at...

A couple of things. Hoping somebody can date it and tell me if the front sight is pinned. I can't tell by looking but it is a bit loose The Serial Number is 78828 and the address line is Iver Johnson Arms and Cycle Works (star) (star) Fitzburg MASS U.S.A (Star) No other markings. thanx

I didn't find this suggestion with the search engine. Sorry about the rep if it has been suggested Since high profile shootings and robberies tend to take place in "gun free" environments, there may be some case law to be made when these things happen in businesses that post signs that create a...
