    H&R 999 Sportsman

    I'm looking into getting one and have been trying to find more info on them. Can anyone tell me the difference in models and year ranges? So far I've been able to find out there were three different looking models and were made for quite some time. Seems the ones with the vents on the barrel are...

    Charter Arms Serial Number?

    I have an old revolver that I inherited from my grandfather. It is at Five-shot Charter Arms Target Bulldog in .357 Magnum. I haven't been able to find any serial number lookup to find out what year it was made in. Does anyone have any idea where I can find this out at?

    Just Acquired A Taurus PT92

    Just made up my mind a few days ago on which 9mm I wanted to buy and one pops up on an online Facebook group for sale or trade, just picked it up last night. I got three mags (two were Beretta mags that the guy machined to work in the PT92, not sure I want to use them) and a Blackhawk Holster...

    Ruger New Blackhawk Cylinder Question.

    I just got a Ruger New Blackhawk second-hand from someone and it had never been fired before. I traded a New Vaquero and I noticed on the Blackhawk that when the loading gate is open, the 'clicks' don't line up the cylinder with the extractor like it did on my New Vaquero. I have to click then...

    Inexpensive and Reliable 9mm or .40 S&W Hammer-Fired Semi-Auto?

    I've been wanting to get a reliable and inexpensive 9mm or 40 S&W handgun for carry and range shooting. I much prefer hammer over striker and something that I could pay less than $500 OTD (also prefer new). So far the only one I've been able to find is the 9mm Ruger P95, does anyone else have...

    "Old West" Finish on a Stainless Steel New Vaquero?

    Is it possible? I've seen the glass bead blasted that's been done on stainless steel guns, but while looking at Uberti's website they have an Old West finish that makes the gun look, well, old.. Any way to get this replicated on my Stainless Steel New Vaquero? Been searching around the internet...

    Looking for a holster like this.

    I've been looking and can't find anything I can purchase. Not even sure what it's called. I mainly want to use a standard belt and just hang the holster low enough on my thigh. I've found several nylon holsters with a drop adapter, but nothing for my Ruger New Vaquero in leather. Can anyone...

    Drop Leg Holster for New Vaquero?

    I just recently bought a 5.5" SS New Vaquero in .357 mag and I have been searching for over a week for a good drop leg holster that wouldn't cost a lot. Everything I find is well over $200, and I just don't want to spend that. Does anyone know where I can find something, even one that attaches...

    Next Gun: Ruger New Vaquero (finish question)

    So my uncle has been hounding me because I mentioned selling my Glock 22 and getting a SA Revolver and just recently he told me he would help me get one of my choice if I sold him the glock. I've done a good bit of research and decided on the New Vaquero in .357 MAG with 5.5" barrel (over the...

    Bought my first handgun.. Glock 22

    Just yesterday I bought my first handgun, a 3rd Gen. Glock 22. I currently own a revolver (Charter Arms Target Bulldog .357 MAG) and I've been shooting guns since I was able to hold one, but this is the first gun I have actually purchased that wasn't "handed down" to me. Never really was a fan...

    H&R Model 622 Parts?

    My dad just gave me his old H&R Model 622 .22 Revolver he used to use for coyotes back when he owned cattle. The hammer wouldn't go all the way back so I took the handgrips off and noticed the plastic piece that is at the end of the spring was broken (I don't know what it is called, but the...

    Researching a Single Action Revolver (.45 Long Colt). Need help/advice.

    So for a while now I have been trying to figure out what my next gun was going to be. I'm not a fan of double-action triggers and I have always loved single-action revolvers, specifically the Colt Single Action Army. I've been looking and trying to do some research on different revolvers and...
