I did a search and I understand that the Ithaca 49R was only made for a few years and then the design was changed fairly significantly to the Ithaca 72, which was slightly updated and became the Henry H001. How does the design and/or manufacture of the Ithaca 49R differ from the 72? And if...

I have a several guns that I'd like to re-finish and I planning on use the same coating, whatever that may be, for all three. One of the guns is a revolver and though I'd like to tear it down and completely re-do it, I want to make sure I don't do anything to affect the tolerances or how it...

Yep, they're both used. It's rare that I buy a "new" gun.

I'm looking to finally get a bolt-action .22. This will be for informal target shooting and, very likely, the gun my daughter will use to learn to shoot in a couple years. It's down to two I've found locally: a Marlin 781 for $150 and a Remington 513T for $350. I know the Remington is a...

I'm looking for a DA revolver. I expect it'll be shot about 75% in SA, but I do like shooting in DA as well. "I would probably lean toward a 6" barrel, but I absolutely love my Smith M57 with an 8 3/8" barrel." I actually ran across an M57 with 8 3/8 barrel locally for $525. I was just...

I'm looking to get a .22LR revolver for general target shooting and plinking. In short, something just for fun. The plan was to get a used S&W or Colt, but I'm not sure about the barrel length. All of my prior revolvers have been centerfire with a 3" or 4" barrel, so I lean toward a 4"...

I ran across a Stevens hammered coach gun locally for $200, but not knowing much about them I was wondering if it might be better to just get a newer CIA/Norinco model since it's only about $40 more. This will be for "fun", not cowboy action/trap/etc. and will get shot about 2x a year. Any...

Thanks for all input and help!

Thanks. I've always liked the look of the 3" barrels, but this is actually my first wheel gun. I went in there looking for another shotgun, but saw it and couldn't pass it up.

stopped by the pharmacy over lunch and they said it'd be 20 minutes. Hmmm, there's Brightwater right down the street. Ohhhhh look at that, a S&W Model 64 with a 3" barrel for $289. Owner is a cool guy and I got it for $300 out the door:)

Anyone have experience with the Herter "Vari-Choke"? As a thank you, I was given a beater Wingmaster with a 28" barrel that has the Vari-Choke installed. This is going to be a truck/fun gun. The original plan was to cut the barrel down to 18", but I thought about having the Vari-Choke...

I've always had handguns, but I recently picked up a High Standard Riot 12 gauge. It shoots fine, but the mag tube is loose and there's about 3/4 inch of play when the action is locked forward. Couple questions: What's the title of a good book on shotguns/shotgunning? Anyone have a link to...

P-H-O-T-O-S-H-O-P!

Ummmm, Dan Wesson is coming out with a longslide 10mm. Don't know about the rest of the stuff, but sure it could be added.

Thinking about getting a revolver for CCW and was wondering...assuming the same gun, is there any real (world) difference between carrying the a 3" barrel vs a 4" barrel.

Here's where it gets worse. I found out they're selling for 30-100 euros, which is about $36-$120 US.

Worth re-reading this part.
