Just in from NRA-ILA. Vote is now postponed until March 29. Same troubles unresolved.

Just got this from NRA North Carolina: Tomorrow’s Expected Consideration of an Anti-Gun Amendment Threatens Right-to-Carry Reform Bill! Please Contact Your State Representative TODAY! Tomorrow, March 23, a critical pro-gun reform bill is facing the threat of being watered down on the floor of...

Has there been any action on this bill the past week?

Email sent. Thanks for making that easy. I called the office offices of my reps last week to encourage passage of bill.

New pocket revolver 442 Got my carry permit and a no lock 442. Shot 150 rounds this weekend, mainly 148 gr. wadcutters and a few Speer gold dots. This gun is a snap to carry in pocket (Blackhawk pocket holster), but is going to take some practice to become accurate with. Maybe I need more...

I went to gun show in Raleigh this morning with the hope of finding a 642, possibly used, and to put my hands on some of the other contenders. There were so many people outside in line it would have taken an hour or 2 to get in and I wasn't willing to wait that long. I have never seen anything...

Carry permit should be coming in about 2 weeks. I have decided that revolver is the simplest and most reliable gun for me. I want weight at under 20 oz. and 38+P is OK. Obviously the 642 is a popular choice, but is there reliability at a cheaper price? This will not be a primary range gun or a...

+1 on the Midway Bag.

That's good news. How often do you dissemble firing pin and extractor. The general field strip is easy, but I am not confident getting deeper.

I've been getting some mixed information on dry firing with snap caps or not. I have them for my S&W M65 revolver and SW says they are not necessary so I have stopped using them. Racking the slide on the 1911, I don't let it go fully without something in the chamber to absorb the shock. So when...

Thanks CWL, perfect explanation.

The original Dan Wesson mags are 7 shots and it ends flush with bottom of grip. When I look at pics it seems some of the 8's are flush and some have the extension on them. Can an a 8 shot be flush and fit in the Bobtail. I'll probably try one of each, but would buy the 8 shot if it is flush to...

Just purchased a Dan Wesson CBOB. I would like to get a couple of high quality magazines for it. Any suggestions? Also can I cock the trigger with my thumb and dry fire without causing harm. Of course no mag inserted and empty chamber checked.

Here is my model 65 Please tell me how to upload picture in larger size. New to this.

There are washers at each of these screws, I have had my Buckmark sight loosen up (front screw) and cause misfires. I don't know if this is a problem needing fixing. I simply check and tighten up the sight screws every couple hundred rounds and it shoots fine. If you wind up getting a better...

I also have the BM camper in SS and shot a couple hundred rounds through it today. I like the Mini Mags alot, but they are a little pricy. Federals I had were good, but lead bullet is a little dirtier, American Eagle has a reasonably priced copper coated bullet. decent price. I think its a very...

Any opinions on boresnakes for revolvers? Cleaning takes me about a half hour per gun with brushes and patches and all. I'd like to find something to speed it up. I've also seen a thread on the Otis system. Is there any feedback on that cleaning equipment?

I'm with you FerFAL. There is no reason to shoot up in the air and the tragedy is senseless and as deep as it gets. Know your BACKSTOP.

My first revolver is a 65-5 with a 4" barrel bought about 3 months ago. Fits my hand great and I can hardly wait to get back to the range and shoot it some more as soon as it's been cleaned and shined back up. I shoot mainly .38's and a few .357s for fun. I keep it loaded at home with .38+P.The...

I have been shooting a S&W Highway Patrolman, mostly .38's for the past 4 months. It started with the original small wood checkered grips and was nearly impossible to get my hands into a comfortable position without 2 or 3 times of regripping and positioning. Just the worst. After putting on...
