Hopefully Dfariswheel sees this...I know you are an expert on Colts.... I ordered a pair of checkered wood grips from Numrich but they don't come with a screw (2nd issue for square butt, 1969 model). Can you tell me if this is the right screw for the second series short butt frame? 175560...

took it out to shoot today and nothing but misfires...seems the fring pin is falling back into the reciever after I load a round into the chamber...and even if I nudge it back out by dropping the lever an inch, most times it still doesn'tg fire...the lver also feels a bit sloppy as it doesn't...

I'm not much for wearing extra mags on my belt but sometimes it is nice to have them ready to go and just clip on your belt or stash in the glove box...I found a standard blackberry holster with magnetic clip holds two single stack 8 round 9mm mags perfectly back to back with no play....and the...

I'm trying to date my apache black 66...I found this on the web... "Actually, the key to manufacture date on your Remington Nylon 66 is not the serial number, but a stamping on the barrel. There will be two letters, the first being the month, and the second being the year. Here's a quick...

I have read many threads on the DS as my dad has one from 1966 (2nd gen?)...it has the unshrouded ejector....my brother has a 3rd gen with the shrouded ejector and shorter grip....but I can't find the difference between the 1st gen and 2nd gen....isn't it in the grip? I saw some old photos of...

I recently sent 4 of my hi-power mags out to Mac's Restorations and he did a great job on them....then I found one more grizzled old mag and was wondering if I can just refinish it myself as a little project...after a little steel wool and a cleaning, what can I do at hime to give it a simple...

While visiting NYC, my dad gave me a box of this NYPD duty ammo....supposedly this is a very good load for the snubbie and hard to find....do they still make it? I also heard that the NYPD which carries 124 +P gold dots in their 9mms is going to a gold dot round in 38...not sure what grain but...

I noticed the Colt Detective special is not on the approved list (I guess since it isn't made anymore)....but isn't it legal to inherit or have transfered a non-approved gun from an immediate family member out of state?

I've learned just becaue its in print, does not make it true...can somone grade this paper for me...I'm pretty sure the shrouded ejector models were much later than 1958.... http://www.thearmedcitizen.com/gunpages/colt_d_s.htm

Been doing a lot of looking but hard to tell who makes the best for the money. truivory has em for 95 bucks and I hear they are the closst tot he real thing but a little too expensive for my tastes.....then there's boone trading, ajax, and bonded ivory from gunaccessories.com....the boones are...

For those of you that have one and found the mag hard to get in and out (it is even hard while holding in the mag release while inserting and removng.....were you able to do anything to alleviate the problem? The factory 15 went in a bit easier than the mecgar plastic based one...but both are...

Okay, maybe not brand new but new to me...a friend of mine was cleaning out his closet and came across this and gave it to me....the manual says "revised 5/59" but I'm not sure if that's the exact date code for the gun...anyway, it's mint and I want to shoot it...but does anyone know about...

Looking to pick one up....hard to find in my neck of the woods...what is the going price for one of these and if you any of you have one, how do you like them? ...I was going to get a P22 or maybe a little revolver for plinking butt his gun really caught my eye in the looks dept....thanks

Okay, so I got the AF today and it is real nice...with smooth wood grips and a not too cheesey gold medallion on each side...I like the way the safety works like a 1911, much cooler than my Beretta... but I am curious...how did they get away making a double action auto with no de-cocker...

I was just gifted one froma friend. Can anyone shed some light on this gun? I know it a Beretta clone but is this the one with the frame mounted safety and no decocker? I checked the Taurus website and it isn't listed. Also, are mags hard to find used...it only has one 15 rounder...thanks

My friend likes my desantis gaurdian bellyband and I want to get one for him for Christmas...but I know there are other makers out there...mine has a holster on each side made of thin leather but I prefer one with a strong side gun and a few spare pouches for a mag and cuffs and possibly a cell...

I kind of like those 9 shot taurus model 94s...I really like the snubbie model with target sights...but they have two models, the ultra light at 18 ounces or the regular at 24....can't really decide...any suggestions? I don't think recoil would be much different and would go lighter if there...
