    looking for something new (err used)

    I currently have an S&W 39-2, and I looking to add something else in the 9mm caliber. I am looking mostly for recreational purposes (not planning on CCW anytime soon). I want something that is: easy to shoot, shoots well, and not too finicky. Casually I have considered the Sig 229, but...

    ok, look what followed me home!

    this is an late 1950's Colt Officers Model Match 22LR in really nice condition. Sadly, no OEM grips (the Herretts currently installed don't fit my hand well). Will have to change them out a set of OEM walnut as well as a pair of Coco Bolo Hogues. The trigger and the hammer have been polished...

    Colt Frontier Scout

    I just started looking at the Frontier Scouts, and I was wondering if someone can tell me the main differences. I know that they used aluminum or zinc alloy frames, but did they ever use steel? what is the difference between the various series (K, F, '62, etc). oh, by the way, I am talking...

    cleaning/short-term storage

    OK, I have a problem. Due to excessive compulsive behaviour I now have some hand guns that don't see a lot of regular use (ranging from a s&w mod 57 to a high standard sentinel). I was wondering if I wipe them down periodically with CLP Breakfree (cleaner/lubricant/preservative), then take...

    thinking about a 22

    ok, I am kinda sorta thinking about getting another 22 (this would be my first wheel gun 22, got a couple of autos). I haven't decided if I am going to go with a SA or DA yet, so both are up for consideration. In the SA, I was thinking of buying new (but not necessarily). and the only real...

    S&w 39-2

    OK, I have an early 80s nickle 39-2. Should I shoot it (I do), or is there some collectability to it that will diminish with use? And, what is the history of this weapon, was it originally designed as an alternative to the 1911? thanks,

    S&W 39-2 Grip-Opinion

    ok, I have a nickle 39-2, that I have had Packmayr signature wrap-arounds on for years. I am feeling like it is time for a change. I was looking at the Hogues, but, I am haveing trouble deciding what kind of wood & smooth vs check finish I want. I think I like the smooth Coco Bolo or possibly...
