    SS109 ammo question

    I hope this is in the right thread and if it's not, I'm sorry but I'm not real experienced on this board. Anyway, SS109 ammo is selling like crazy and it's not AP ammo by definition and is not considered AP ammo by the BATF. So, to me if an ammo company was halfway smart, why not make...

    metal piercing pistol rounds

    Question for the cartridge collectors. I've always had an interest in the odd rounds and have read all the old posts but can somebody give me the run-down on the different brands / types of metal piercing rounds and which worked best on various penetration? Anybody got any pics of these...

    Anybody know what this movie gun is?

    I don't keep up with movies but I saw a recent magazine pic with an actor holding an absolutely HUGE revolver. Looks like would've shot 12 gauge shells or something like that and it looked old although it could've been a ficticious movie prop. Someone else said the guy played in a movie...

    Opinions betweem these 2 'N' frames

    I'm looking at 2 different N frames. A 29-2 with 6.5 inch barrel pinned and recessed or a 29-5 6 inch. The -5 will cost me a little under $450.00 total and the -2 will be around $600.00. How do the two compare in quality? I haven't seen the -5 yet but will soon if I think it might be worth...

    Need to know how good a deal this is on N frame

    Basically, $600.00 for a 6.5 inch 29-2 in really good shape. Pinned and recessed and beautiful stock target grips. How good a deal is this? Jump on it now or pass or somewhere in between. Thanks, Tim

    Is there any way to get any KTW ammo for collection?

    I know the sale of this ammo was outlawed but is there any way to get any metal piercing ammo for a collection? I'd love to find some for my ammo collection. I don't know of anyone ever having any. Tim

    Was there ever a .38 super revolver?

    Since the .38 super is a semi-rimmed cartridge I was wondering if it's ever been chambered in a factory revoler? Tim

    Question about old .38 special revolver loads

    I just got an old gun magazine from 25 years ago and in the balistic tables it shows figures for law enforcment loads that delivered 400 + ft/lbs and one that even delivers like 540 ft/lbs. Showed the 110 gr +P+ load at 399 ft/lbs too but that one rivals .357 mag performance. Anyone know...

    Anybody know much about this gun? I've heard that the .22 version is only chambered for longs and not long rifles. Anyone know if this is true? Tim

    What's the cheapest made revolver?

    The cheapest made revolver I've ever seen or have is an RG .22. Anybody know of any pistols that were cheaper made than the RG? Don't ask me why but I've always been fascinated by how cheap some stuff can be made. Anybody ever seen any cheaper (read, junkier) ones? Tim

    What are some good gun shops in ST Louis?

    I travel to ST Louis frequently and I'd like to search out some gun shops but hate to just go down the yellow pages because of all the driving. What are some good gun shops as far as used pistol selection at good prices? I like collecting smiths and colts so any good shops for those type...

    Question about N frame smiths

    I went to a gun show yesterday and got to check out several nice guns. One of which was a 6 inch model 27, old style with wood grips. I was extremely impressed by the feel of the revolver and how it balanced for my hands. My question is this, would a 57 or 29 feel the same? Is the muzzle...

    Question about chamber on .22 short revolver

    At a gunshow yesterday I bought a Imperial metalworks .22 short revolver, also known as a RG-10. (pause for the laughing to stop) For some reason I just always wanted one of these in my collection (maybe because my Grandpa had one?) and finally found a beater at a show. Anyway, it says .22...

    Need quick advice for .22 magnum hi standard

    I was just looking at a .22 magnum hi standard double action revolver (sentenal mark 4) that was in very good condition and thinking of buying it but when I looked at the gap in between the cylinder and cone you probably could have put a dime in there. Everything was tight and in good shape so...

    Anyone remember this article on the .577 revolver?

    Does anyone with old Guns and ammo mags remember an article by Ross Seyfried about a .577 bland revolver? Would have probably been in the early to mid 90s. If anyone has that issue and can at least give me the date so I can search for a copy or better yet, be willing to scan the article please...

    D.O.B. of my python?

    I've got on lay-a-way a 6 inch blued python with the wood grips. Action is SUPERB even for a python in my opinion. Very Very good condition and I only paid $585.00 for it. Anyway I see on my receipt the the serial number is 1932xx. Anyone say when it was made? Thanks, Tim
