I'm working on a Remington 1903a3 that appears to be all correct, However the FJA and P marks on the stock are in some sort of ink rather than stamped into the wood. I haven't run across this in my limited experience, is this factory? Fwiw, receiver serial dates 6/43 with a 4/43 barrel

My recently acquired model 25 came with the following target grips. After some searching online I haven't seen anything like them, and would like to know where they might be from if the ring a bell. Per Radagast's thread, the revolver should be 1959, no idea on the age of the stocks, but I...

I've really enjoyed my CZ 912 and it's been a good gun for the money so far, however it broke outright on me Monday afternoon while breaking clays and wouldn't fire. The obvious problem was that it had sheared a rather cheaply made linkage pin that holds the connecting rod to the bolt, which...

Picked one of these up for a song, just finished a detail disassembly on it. What a strange and interesting little rifle. Looks like Numerich has some support, but a cursory search at GB shows the magazines seem to made of golden leprechaun poo, at their going price. Very slick looking and...

Picking up a new bench top today, I finally broke down and got an Edsal 6' maple. Kicking around ideas for mounting my 550 before I start drilling holes in it. Some of the plate + receiver systems I see online have great gadget factor, but of I'm honest with myself, it's pretty unlikely that...

I recently picked up a Stevens M200 in .223 at auction to fill out the "long range varmint" spot in my collection. It came topped with what appears to be a nicely made 4x12 scope. I can't find any manufacturers marks on the scope however, and I'm not that familiar with them (most of my long guns...

I've never been one for the Colt snakes, more of a Smith fan. However I couldn't pass this little guy up, so now I'm the proud owner of my first snake. Sadly, it has been fired by the original owner, as you can see in the photo, and there are a couple of small spots of lost finish on the left...

Living in the PRK it's common to have the more "politically acceptable" Russians, plenty of SKS's and Mosins running around, but AK's are harder to come by. Also, you generally pay the "california premium" (read: WAY above market) However, everyone should have an AK, IMHO, so I finally bit...

I recently picked up a Win 1894 AE in .44mag. The serial number is above the researched range available online, but should put it in the mid 1980's. This is the Trapper, with the 16" barrel, 9 shot mag tube. I got it for a very reasonable price from a gentleman I regularly do business, so I had...

Received an eighties Winchester Defender (cruiser, 8 shot) this morning as a gift from a friend after I have helped him out selling off his guns over the last few weeks. I'm sure there's something better than a free gun, but probably not anything we can discuss on this forum! :evil:

Nabbed up a Marlin Camp 9 today, ANIB, unfired for $350. I've been wanting to get hold of both the 9 and the 45 so this was a nice little surprise. My only regret, is that I'm thinking of buying another one rather than losing this ones "mint" state. Marlin serial # question. I understand that...

I'm having trouble with an old Marlin 42, I'm hoping someone with a little experience with the model can help me. Mine was in fine working condition, however on one occasion while pumping the action, the action locked in the open position. It will close partially, until the feed ramp begins to...

An acquaintance of mine is dropping off a 1988 I.M.I .44 Deagle, unfired in the original box. I did some hunting around gunbroker etc, to establish some sort of price baseline, but was unable to find one really comparable in booth age and condition. I'm not much of a follower of the D.E...

Ran across another good deal on assorted ammo today, I seem to be developing a knack for stumbling into estate sale gun stuff. I got a bunch of old 8mm mauser dated 1939 / 1940, and a lot of newer 7.62x39. The question is, some of the 7.62x39 is red tipped, which I would assume to be a tracer...

Ammunition being what it is these days, I've been keeping my ear to the ground for yard sales here and garage clear-outs there. Yesterday I hit paydirt when a co-worker agreed to sell me 800 rounds of 7.62x51mm for $100 :what: I don't even own anything in NATO standard, guess now I've got an...

Lemme just say, that some people don't have no kind of common sense. Coming home just now, I'm getting the feeling through the last few turns to my house, that the car behind me is following me. I live in a nice quiet neighborhood, but this is the same nice quiet neighborhood where we had a...

Had to pay around market for it, but I got my SW25-2 I had my heart set on. NIB. Didn't plan on buying much else but I couldn't let this Dan Wesson .44 get away at the price ($375) Also nabbed a few long guns including a nice model 42 marlin 12ga. Now I just have to duck the wife for a few...

I'm looking at a S&W 25-2, NIB, 45ACP. Any feedback from owners of this model? I don't think I want to spend more than $650, altho I see a lot of people asking 800ish for this model, which seems a bit much to me. Any input appreciated.

I had some friends out from MD a few weeks ago, and of course I had to indulge them in a trip up to BCSC. We brought about everything I own, shot the hell out of it, and guess who had to clean it all :barf: A good time was had by all, and we finally cured Colleen of her "cup and saucer"...
