A friend of mine told me today that he saw a Enfield Jungle Carbine at a pawn store down town. He said it was a .303 cal and it was one of the best ones he has seen. The price is only $99 so it got me thinking. How can I tell if it is a real Jungle Carbine or just a cut down? It is a good...

Check out this guy's auction. He says it is a "blued Steel 6 shot 686" The box says it is a SS 7 shot 686. I think it is just a 586 and the guy is an idiot.:neener: http://gunbroker.com/auction/ViewItem.asp?Item=13213495

I just brought my S&W 586 4" blued .357 home today. I ordered it online so this is the first time I got to hold it. It is not as nice as my other one that I sold a few years ago but it is still pretty good. It is a little looser and the blue is not as deep but it is still better looking than...

Here is my list of things that it has to have for me to buy it. 1. It must be in a caliber that is cheap and easy to find. I have stuck to these calibers on my other C&R rifles for ease. I would like it to be in one of these cals or in a common cal that I already have (9mm etc.) 8mm...

I find that I have only three guns that I keep loaded all the time. One is my home defense Beretta 92fs. The other two are my carry guns, a S&W 642 and a Beretta 21-A. I sometimes carry other guns but these guns are always loaded and ready to go.

Have you ever sold a gun and later bought the same gun or same model again because you missed it so much? Have you ever bought another identical gun even though you had one already? I had several guns that I didn't know how good they were until they were gone. S&W 586, I recently decided to...

I have heard that once a gun is 50 years or more old, it automatically becomes a C&R. Is that true? For example, if I have a S&W model 36 revovler that was made in 1952, is that a C&R? What if I buy it before it becomes a C&R, do I have to log it once it becomes a C&R? If I buy a gun...

My dad really wants a 638 but if they are going to go on sale and come down in price like the 637 and 642 just did, I think he can wait. A few months ago, the 637s and 642s were selling for well over $400 but now they can be had for $300-350. If the 638 is going to follow suit, it will be...

With all the Bersa pistols that are being sold, you would think there would be more aftermarket products for them but I don't see any. Are there any aftermarket grips for the Bersa? What about Hogue? Will the modern Bersa mags fit my older model 383-A or do I need a 383-A mag?

Does anyone know if there are thinner grips available for the Beretta 21A? I have the black plastic with the checkering. I have heard that there are some thinner grips out there but I don't have any info about them.

What is the ideal bbl to frame ratio in your view? I am talking mostly about S&W revolvers. Here's mine: J-frame, 1 7/8"-2" K-frame, 4" but my 6" M-19 is nice and so is the 6" K-38 and K-22. L-frame, 4" N-frame, 5" Why this length wasn't more popular is a mystery to me. These lengths...

I just bought an older Bersa model 383-A in .380 caliber. It is nickel with nice wood grips and has the steel frame instead of the alloy that is made today. It seems smoother than the new ones I have seen and maybe even a little better made. What can you folks tell me about this model...

Wow! The price on these keeps going down! For that kind of money, you almost can't afford NOT to buy one.:D These are very good guns that could sell for $400 and up. I don't understand why people don't like them.:confused:

I have a M-19 and will soon be getting a 586 both with square butts. What are some nice wood grips to put on them? I don't like the factory target grips because they are too large for my hand. I don't want rubber or plastic because these guns are blued and I don't like the look of blued steel...

I just purchased a used S&W 586 and I was wondering if I got a good deal. I don't have it yet but from the pic and the description it is in excellent condition 90% with 4" bbl, red insert front sight and white outline rear. It comes with Pachmyer grips, not original. I have bought from this...

I got to shoot my new 642 for the first time today. I am not used to shooting DA only on targets so my groups were not very good. They were groups and not patterns at least.:D The shots were more or less centered and I had no mechanical problems. It did seem to spit more power and junk...

What are the most powerful and effective self defense loads for .38spl snubbies? I know this has probably been asked before so if you could point me to the threads or just give me the 3-4 best loads that people seem to like, I would apperciate it. I don't like those wierd loads like Glaser or...

I went to the gunshow on SAT and picked up a new S&W 642. It was only $369, which I think is a decent price and I needed a small, light carry gun. I really wanted the super light Titanium version (342?) but at $600, I think not! Anyway, I have had many small pistols since owning a Charter...
