    Taurus Police Trade-Ins: If anyone is interested.

    Are these trade-ins from Brazil? Hard to imagine a US PD issuing a Taurus.

    ammo interchangeability

    Here’s one that’s bound to create some controversy. Based on what I read, some say 7.62 Mauser and 7.62x25 are interchangeable. No personal experience, there are those who say it’s okay, and those who say the sky will fall.

    Should I have passed on it?

    I found this 3” model Iver Johnson, smokeless version in .38 S&W, last year on Gunbroker for $150 + shipping, C&R so no transfer fee. DA pull is horrendous, but SA isn’t too bad. If it wasn’t really what you wanted, then you did well to not get sucked in and pass.

    North American Arms Belt Buckle

    I seem to recall Richard Boone as Paladin in “Have Gun-Will Travel” carried a Derringer behind his belt buckle. Then, of course, there’s the pop out crotch gun from “Dusk ‘till Dawn”. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lueIajfi34w

    jacketed rounds in a Ruger old army

    Is the opinion Ruger is using different quality steel for the black powder gun as opposed to their smokeless guns ? Using two different steels would seem to me to be an unnecessary expense and add complication to their production process. Besides, any modern gun quality steel couldn’t be...

    New toy Rossi R95

    If the loading gate area is anything like the one my Rossi 92 had, it has sharp edges. I fixed mine by peening the edges by rubbing on them with the upper part of a 1/4” drill bit. Good luck with your new gun!

    Tell me why I shouldn’t get a Browning BLR in .308.

    Drawbacks? Too light, too handy, too short, too powerful for a lever gun. Great gun, especially for woods hunting.

    Gun-toting lawyers in Arkansas

    How about when the attorney goes to visit his or her client in the pens, will he or she remember to remove it before they enter? Failure to do so would be a crime in most places, introducing prison contraband.

    More knives from my misspent youth.

    Yup, I also had a K55 in my back pocket growing up in the Bronx and Queens. Once they got a little loose, you could flick your wrist and they’d open. Good cheap knife, one of the few available lock backs at the time.

    One More Sixgun! Uberti El Patron .45 Colt.

    It seems they have stopped producing Trailboss all together. While it’s not really an ideal powder, the safety it brings by easily seeing a double charge is invaluable to me.

    Today, $400 is considered cheap for 'em.

    You did well! The arctic birch stock on your Russian is off the charts beautiful.

    The GODS smiled upon me this weekend at our tiny dinky gun show ...... A tremendous find.

    Protest starting, unfair to left handed shooters! Nice gun, good luck with it!

    I have a suppressor on my CO2 pistol that was 3D printed by Buck Rail, not silent, but takes the harsh pop off.

    Little Bessie Gets Her Bayonet. At Last.
