I am currently looking at a Colt officers model, there are two one in .22lr that looks like it saw very little use. Made in 1939 24xxx according to the Colt Collector site. The .38 dates to 1952 or maybe 1929 525xxx. How is the accuracy and quality of these models?. What would they sell for in...

Yesterday I took my 1956 Smith & Wesson .357 magnum to the range. Here is a picture. It seems to me that the years 1947 to 1958, may have been the best for quality and features for S&W revolvers. Do other folks agree? Is this the optimum time frame for old Smith's in terms of features like...

Over the years I have change the mainspring on S&W revolvers many times. Its always been a simple procedure and never required the removal of the sideplate until this past Saturday. I came into a new revolver a 625 Performance Center made in 2017. The trigger pull is slick as glass in double...

Apparently .38 special was effective in a real world shooting scenario involving a creature that is much tougher and larger than a Human. http://www.foxnews.com/us/2017/07/20/alabama-hunter-shoots-down-820-pound-wild-hog-in-front-yard.html#

I received an email from Cabelas Club with a link to take me to the order page for a new Colt revolver. Anyone else get this...

I have an opportunity to pick one up with a 6" barrel made in 1959. I was wondering if anyone likes them here and has experience with shooting and maintaining them. Are magazines available? are they easy to maintain and strip? are parts/ springs available should I need them. Last how is the...

Years ago I picked up a new Redhawk hunter model with integral scope mounts and rings. Unfortunately I did not bond with it no matter how hard I tried so it was sold. The other day I came across a used one at a Y2K price of $495 with custom grips that was just too good to pass up. It looks...

Blue finish, Like new condition 2" barrel square butt frame. Seller is asking $695 with the Box no manual. Gun looks un-fired and has perfect timing lock up fit etc. I see them online for varying prices, the square but seems to be rarer than the round. Do you have one and like it? Serial...

I have been posting on and reading this forum for about 10 years now. Lately there seems to be an epidemic of new owner hypochondria on this forum. Some folks worry too much, and its not just about guns. Take it easy guys if there is a little rattle or a spot or scratch on the finish remember...

Hi All I came across a LNIB remington 1100 in a local shop. It has a fancy walnut stock figured and the ubber fancy fleur delis checkering, high polish blue, steel trigger guard, checkered wavy rib, and engraved reciever and bolt. It looks like it had about a box of shells fired through it and...

Anyone have any or know where to get some? I am willing to do a trade....

I thought i would post this quote from todays hearing: LEAHY: Good. Let me (ph) talk to you about another decision that's been talked about, District of Columbia v. Heller. In that one, the Supreme Court held that the Second Amendment guarantees to Americans the right to keep and bear arms, and...

380 Ruger LCP preferred load?? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I have been fortunate enough to locate an in stock LCP .380 and have taken it out to the range and fired it with some old remington FMJ high velocity left over from 12 years ago...

I recently came into a 21" model, I already own a 16", but mostly I have shot military surplus ammo in it. I want to test the accuracy of the 21" model, so I am looking for suggestions from anyone who loads for a saiga, what bullet weight and powder produces the best groups? Thanks

I would recommend a 10/22 carbine. They seem to have been named in the 2003 ban bill which I suspect will be repeated by in the comming year because the 10/22 can take a 25 and 50 round magazine. Factory mags are the 10 round rotary version, but butler creek and ramline make 25 and 50...

I saw a Siaga wood thumbhole stocked 21" .308 rifle in a local store, Its a new model, which apparently has the trigger guard already moved forward. This makes a conversion if needed pretty easy , no need to move the trigger and guard. The trigger was about 4Lbs and felt pretty good. I...

Lately I have been finding myself more comfortable with the deep concealment the keltec P-32 offers. I have had mine for a few years, since shortly after they first came out. At first I had a few jams, and in rapid fire I had misfires, which were not a malfunction but my own failure to let...

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - The scene repeats itself daily on city streets: a driver gets stuck bumper to bumper, blocking an intersection and preventing another car from turning left. But authorities say that was enough to cause Edwin Ramos to unload an AK-47 assault weapon on a man and his two sons...
