As a California resident we are not allowed to purchase / import any Colt period. There are Colts in the state from before but as you can expect they are sought after & expensive. :-( the PRK is not a good place if you like to shoot

I am jealous, Ive been hunting for a gold cup here in California for some time without luck, last one I saw was beat to hell and went for about double what you paid for yours :(

Nothing on the nightstand but a Sig 1911 within reach

Like many others I find the .40 too snappy too shoot well & too expensive to buy in comparison to 9mm. I've always owned and shot 9mm & 45acp

Being in California for now I'm hoping this gets overturned in court asap along with us having to turn in any standard capacity magazines without compensation. In the meantime I'm buying in bulk online trying to stock up as much as I can.

Hi, not a new member by any means although looks like everything was wiped or reset at some point? Been a member over a decade, live in California. I've been a pistol shooter primarily 1911 or classic S&W wheelguns, lately branching off into Sigs & HKs too. I've also started shooting bolt action...

The last two classes I attended the 1911 was carried by at least 50% of the students, I shot one of my 1911's for all three days of the classes

Part of it depends on your location, last saturday at my local FFL someone paid 2K for one with serious were on the blueing and someone had filed the front sight down to nothing. A couple of hours later I sold my mint 6" Python from 1981 for $2,500 - I was asking for 3K but i needed to move...

Thats gorgeous, I love the older beautiful blued S&Ws

The 642 is definitely a sweet gun although like every Smith J frame it needs a trigger job badly out of the box :( I have a pair of M66's snubs that I had the performance center bobb the hammers, chamfer and trigger job - believe they call it their combat package. It makes for a great CCW gun...

Well its possible that I may be slightly biased as I have a new 14-3 for sale down below :) and I am stuck in California right now. But owning both guns Id say for target shooting the M14 is a better gun. As for pricing, $450 is about right for the PRK pricing if you are lucky enough to find an...

Build it & carry it :) I have 2 1911's built for carry one by Chuck Rogers and one by Yost - Bonitz, neither are flashy or full house guns, both are dead reliable, accurate 1911s. I asked for carry guns and that is what they gave me. As soon as I escape the PRK one of them will be on my hip at...

Since you are talking about pocket carry and a person in your face one thing to consider is a revolver with a shrouded hammer or concealed hammer such as the Smith 640, cut down on your draw time by simply shooting the bg with the gun in your pocket. If you are truly talking about someone in...

I bet you are in the PRK as well with those prices, I haven't seen a new Colt under 1k in a long time, barely see a new colt period up here in Nor. Cal where I am. If you can find one pre-owned then I'd suggest grabbing one, they are great guns. I have a S80 Commander on its way back to me from...

Ala Dan, I traded a .38 Super Colt I no longer wanted for the Smith with both grips and $200 boot. I figured the Colt was worth $750 so I have $550 in the revolver. If the stags are worth $100-$150 on ebay then I have $400-$450 in the gun. I could probably get that much for it at auction. Like I...

Just picked up a NIB M586 last month that needed the recall. Call S&W and they will send you a shipping label and do the repair free of charge, turn around when I sent mine in was about 3 weeks :)

I passed on a Colt 1917 (Military) about a month ago, actually I thought it would sit in the shop for a week and then I could lowball it but missed out, oh well. Point being it had almost no finish left, grips somewhat beaten up and worst of all the previous owner had dremmeled his drivers lic...

Unfortunately the S&W 331 & 332 are both being discontinued as well :(

Glad to see that I am not the only person contemplating a long distance move. I have been looking to get out of Cali :fire: for the last 6 months preferably to AZ, TX or Colorado just waiting on the right job offer to come along. Might have to consider TN now though I never considered the South...
