All, I'm parallel-posting this thread on a couple of forums. So, if you run across it elsewhere, please bear with me. Could any of you please tell me what I'm looking at here, about how old they are, and what they might be worth? Thanks! . The nickel one has a...

Since certain individuals trying to get in the White House have made it no secret how they feel about our sport, the wife and I decided to make some key firearm purchases prior to the election, just in case we have two years of unchecked, Anti-gun, Federal government. This weekend, we purchased...

On Saturday, the wife and I were at the pawn shop that we frequent. We have been wanting to get into long guns, as we have been on a revolver binge since we started shooting. At the pawn shop, we decided to fondle shotguns. Long story short, we wound up purchasing a 28-inch Winchester 1300...

I won't go into detail on the gross failure of my first attempt right now, but suffice it to say that my first holster tuned into a rock. I'm pretty proud of my second attempt, though. Here's a link to my blog where I have the so-far pics posted.

All, At a pawn shop around the corner from my house I've located a LNIB Sig P229 chambered in .40 S&W with all the goodies and everything for $600.00 OTD. Deal or no deal? This would be my first auto pistol, and I'm very tempted. Thoughts? --Michael

Good morning everyone! I'm visiting Houston, TX currently and wondered if any of you have a suggestion on a gun range to visit. Thanks! --Michael

Somebody at S&W is chuckling about the irony between the model number and chambering on this one. :D http://www.rrarms.com/catalog.php?prod=G160230

Hello all! Does anyone make carbon fiber combat grips for S&W revolvers? I've googled the heck out of that question and come up with nothing so far. Thanks! --Michael

Hello, all! Two weeks ago, I purchased a 640 for my wife to carry. I seriously love that little revolver, and see one like it in my personal future! The biggest complaint that either of us has on it is the front sight. It's got a black ramp on it, and it's just difficult to sight in...

I need to go to the county jail to pick up my brand new permit. I'm so excited! My wife has not gotten her letter yet, but I'm sure that it's soon to follow. The Wal-Mart Walk is eminent! ./Michael :):D;):cool::p

Hello, all! I have been wondering if there is any advice I can give my son and some other left-handers that I know. Any south-paw shooters out there care to give some tips that I can pass along? Thanks in advance! --Michael

All, I will try to get some pics to post on this subject. A friend of my dad's has a S&W revolver that he has offered to sell me. He says that it is a 4-inch, blued model 10, fully covered in hand engraving. He said that the gun is over 80-years old, and I have been told that it is in like...

Gentlemen, My friend just picked up a beautiful Model 10. This particular specimen is blued at about 99%, with tell-tale signs of holster use once upon a time. The action cycles beautifully, and the cylinder locks up tight. She paid $300.00 for it, and I think she got a good deal. My...

Does anyone know where I can get a hammer to fit my PC 586-7? I would like to have one to bob, and I don't really want to alter the original. The spur is fairly short on it as it is, but I don't use it, and I would like to not risk it snagging on clothing.

All, I've been keeping my eyes open for some reloading equipment for a while now. I got a phone call from a friend yesterday, saying that he wants to sell his RCBS setup. this would include a single-stage press, scales, powder measure, and carbide die sets for .44Spl/Mag, .38/.357, 30/30...

I am the purchasing agent for a manufacturing company in my town. I work with several machine shops, and am capable of doing design work as well. I have mused about working with some of these guys to come up with a blank kit to plug the lock and flag holes for lock removal on S&W revolvers. I...

Hello, all! This is a continuation of this thread. I was surfing ebay, and found this little guy. I think this may be the solution to my problem! This is an adapter plate which will allow the Lyman Tru Line Jr to take standard-sized dies. At that point, all I would need is my shell...

Hello all! My wife has been looking at these little dudes as a BUG. She normally likes shooting .357 Magnum out of her N-frame, but that one will not pull from a purse quickly. Do any of you have experience with either of these two sub-compacts that would inspire you to give...

Hello, all! I just acquired a Lyman reloading press. I have never done my own reloading, but I do have a couple of books about it. The wife and I have been going through 100-200 rounds per week, and with the prices of .357 and .44, I think it's about time that I learn the art. I've read...

Pardon my ignorance, but what's the deal with christening the CCW permit with a trip to Wal-Mart? THX. :confused:
