I have my eye on a pre-model 10 Airweight (steel cylinder) snub that is tight but not with a pristine finish, i.e. this will be carry gun and a shooter, not a safe queen. Can anyone offer an educated and experienced estimate of how many standard velocity rounds a revolver of this type can be...

SANDWICH, Mass. (AP) - A state police officer has been placed on restricted duty after the officer's 12-year-old son allegedly got access to his father's gun and pointed it at a neighbor. State Police spokesman Dave Procopio says Lt. Richard Bolduc has been temporarily reassigned and will not...

Due to dominant side shoulder problems I'm considering getting one or more cross draw holsters. I'm looking for recommendations for smaller to medium sized revolvers: J frames, SP101 and, possibly, for a M64 3"bbl. Your comments based on personal experiences welcomed and appreciated.

I was just browsing the S&W website. It appears that one can only buy 10 round magazines for the S&W M&Ps from S&W. Does anyone know if extra "high capacity" magazines can be ordered through dealers? This is an abstract question for me since I live where such deadly accessories cannot be...

Has anyone used the Sinclair stainless priming tool? http://www.sinclairintl.com/cgi-bin/category.cgi?category=REPTSI&item=PT-2000&type=store This is substantially more expensive than other hand priming tools. It certainly looks substantial. But, does it function more smoothly or with great...

I just saw a Chinese SKS with a fiberglass stock for sale. The stock looks like its ChiCom rather than an aftermarket stock. Does anyone know about this version of the SKS? I've heard from a second hand source that fiberglass stocked SKSs were seen in Viet Nam from time to time. Thanks.

It seems that there are a lot of posts about tumbling cases, relatively few about using a cleaning solution. I was trying to make this a poll and something got screwed up: 1. I tumble. 2. I use a cleaning solution 3. Neither 4. Both, I have OCD

What's your most commonly used priming method (for non progressive reloading) 1. Press Priming 2. Bench Priming 3. Hand Priming

When considering which press to buy (I'll be mostly reloading pistol ammo) I came across the ch4d 4-station H Press: http://www.ch4d.com/ While not too well known or distributed, it looks like a great press. Anyone have experience with it? Thanks.

Who prefers (or a least uses) a double barrel coach shotty for home defense? Chime in with your preferences and experiences. Thanks.

Can anyone tell me about their Herrett Jordan Trooper grips? Photos of Jordan Trooper grips indicate they are quite large. I have fairly large hands and long fingers. I'd like to get some feedback from those who've used these grips before I invest in a set. Thanks.

I've been doing some online browsing in preparation for ordering a couple of sets of revolver grips. It seems that among quality wood grips finger grooved grips are far more common. I admit I've have some grooved grips that are OK, but for me most of them just don't feel right. Am I the only...

What I know about dating S&Ws you could fit in a thimble and rattle around. What can anyone tell me about a J frame, square butt, 2"bbl, serial 668JXX, with a flat black finish that I'm told was the "Highway Patrol" finish? Thanks.

Stupid is as stupid does: Tasty Trade Off: Guns for Ice Cream Exchange Program August 17, 2007 10:39 p.m. SPRINGFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS (WWLP) One community group is doing its best to teach local children the real-life dangers of gun violence. A group called the North End Outreach Network...

I've never owned or even shot a 3" bbl revolver. I came across a DAO S&W stainless steel revolver for sale with a very nicely tuned action. Probably a Model 64 (it was conspicuously marked .38 +P). Since this otherwise very nice revolver has basic fixed sights I'm wondering what 3" bbl fans...

I was in one of my favorite gun stores when I spotted a Benelli M1 S90 in pre-ban configuration with H&K markings-unfired. I didn't waste much time in plunking down a cash deposit.

I just got the S&W M&P 9mm Compact and wanted to do a quick function test before sending it out to Dan Burwell to improve the wretched Massachusetts trigger. Why a really bad trigger is "safe" eludes me, but I digress. I put about 125 - 150 rounds through it. Mostly FMJ S&B ammo with some UMC...

I was wondering if good drop in triggers are available yet for the S&W M&Ps? The compact M&Ps have nice ergonomics and would make a good carry gun. Except, of course, for the Mass. compliant 10 lbs triggers. :barf:

Just a reminder: There are no "safe" places. SPRINGFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS (WWLP) - A verbal argument escalated into gunfire outside the Old First Church in Springfield's Court Square around 12:30 Sunday Morning. Leftover pink and purple balloons hung from the ceiling at the banquet hall...

Maybe it is an increasingly creaky shoulder, but I'm starting to like "appendix carry" more and more. It has a lot of advantages and some substantial disadvantages. Pro--Access is quicker and less encumbered, more secure, less likely to "print", can move hand closer to gun without...
