    Side Plate Screw

    I've been searching posts about side plate screws becoming loose on S&W revolvers, but have not seen the exact problem I have. I have a new 642, dry fired only, about 1,000 times, with snap caps. The other day, I noticed the screw on the upper left on the side plate was backing out. I tightened...

    The "Not Joe Friday" Thread

    Why is it closed? I thought it could have been very entertaining and the source of some good discussion. All TV cop shows (Barretta being another one, as well as "Police Story", "S.W.A.T." and "CHIPS") were anti-gun. I maintain that that's why the Dirty Harry movies of exactly the same time were...

    Advantages to on-line gun purchases?

    I'm in the market for a new snubbie. I haven't bought a new gun in years and I see some pretty good prices online. Question: is it worth it after shipping and local FFL fees? Plus you can't inspect the very weapon you're looking to buy. I also like the idea of supporting local shops and I can...

    New Guy With Snubby Question

    Hello, this is my first post. I've been shopping for a snubby. I've been looking at the Ruger LCR in 38 sp. They go for about $420-$430 here in Minnesota. At a gun show today, there was a dealer who had Smith & Wesson models 637, 638 and 442...your choice for $450 each, which is a pretty good...
