My sister in law's Father passed away about three years ago. Amongst some of the items she inherited was this 2.5" (I think unfired) Python. She also received a couple of hunting rifles that she ended up giving to her son since he hunted. Neither she or my brother are gun people, so when he told...

Not good news for Remington, or the firearms industry in general. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-remingtonoutdoor-bankruptcy-exclusive/exclusive-u-s-gunmaker-remington-seeks-financing-to-file-for-bankruptcy-sources-idUSKBN1FT04C

Yesterday I was on a 3 hour trip cutting thru a small town in central Florida (Ocala) when I saw this shopping centers name. It just brought a big smile to my face. It was nice to see (even here in Florida) a town not being concerned with being accused of not being politically correct. I haven't...

My sister in law's father passed away not too long ago and she finally opened his safe this weekend. She and my brother are not into firearms very much, so they asked me to come by and tell them about three revolvers that was in the safe. She said that they have been in the safe for at least 35...

I saw a 4" Colt King Cobra for sale today with a vented rib barrel. I've never seen a King Cobra with a vented rib barrel before, they always had a solid rib. Did Colt ever make them that way.

I've been wanting to replace the original Pachmayr Presentation grips with Colt factory wood grips on the King Cobra for some time now. They've been hard to find and when they have shown up on one of the auction sites, they have gone for $160 to $180 and up. Way too rich for my blood for grips...

This is kind of a long story, but I'll try to keep it short. It really started last year when I found and purchased a NIB unfired 2-3/4" Security Six with box and papers and all. It was like Christmas to me and I was like a proud Papa, especially when I found an original Melvin Tyler T grip to...

But, they have to be unloaded in a locked case and placed in an onboard weapons locker that they are installing. This will start on Dec 15th. link to the story. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/40431512/ns/travel-news/?GT1=43001

Today I spent part of the day reorganizing my safe to fit a couple more handguns that I had recently purchased. I had completly run out of room. I had a choice to either remove all the ammo from the safe and store it somewhere else, or empty out the safe and do a little modification. I prefer to...

I just read on the Rugerforum.net that Ruger has issued an advisory on new GP100's. The potential issue is a problem with the heat treating of the cylinder. The serial # range is : 175-90xxx to 175-95xxx . These were built in June and July of 2010. Its still early on and they are still...

I own a few revolvers, mostly 38's & 357's but the two Rugers that I have are some of my favorite's. One reason is that I'm a lefty, and the cylinder release latch is easier to operate than the push/pull of the Smiths & Colts. Dont get me wrong, I think all 3 manufactures make some fine...

Just curious, what special precautions do you make if any on Halloween night with people and children knocking on your door until late hours? If you think about it, some thugs might view it as a good opportunity to attempt a home invasion or something else. It was an issue in one area of town...

Whenever I find a new firearms product that Im interested in, like most of us I usually try to find out as much as I can about it before I purchase it. I've always been on the look out for reviews or a site that features new products or info on new products relating to firearms gear &...

I,ve been looking for another revolver to add to my small collection, since I already have three 357 magnums (1 colt 2 rugers) I was wanting a 44 mag. I found a pretty good deal on a S&W 629 Mountain Gun 4" SS and was about to purchase it. Then I just ran across a mint S&W 29-2, 8/38" barrel...

This is a video of Watchmaker Lance Thomas who decided to defend himself and others in his shop against violent crime. Good video showing how regular training and practice can save your life, It saved his many times. I just saw it for the first time today. Heres the link...

I need some input on this tac light. I've been thinking about the use of a tactical light on one of my HD guns, either the P99 .40 or the 90-Two. I found the Burris XT-120 with laser online for about $225.00 and as high as $299, but I dont know much about it. I know its rated at 120 lumens...

Picked up my new Beretta 90-two .40 today and accessories and im pretty pumped. I haven't been this excited since getting my Walther P99 .40. I wont be able to shoot it untill next weekend but in a side by side comparison, doesn't feel like there is that much weight difference even thought the...

I was at the gun shop this weekend and checked out the Beretta 90 Two. Fit and finish was nice and it gripped and pointed naturally and just felt good in hand. I haven't fired one but am looking at the .40. I really enjoy my P99 in the .40 and was thinking of another full size. So, anyone that...

One night about a year ago, I rolled over in my sleep and knocked my P99 off the night stand. Last month I woke to a noise and fumbled around for my gun and flashlight, and the flashlight rolled off my nightstand and fell under the bed where I couldnt find it. Since I make gun racks, I decided...
