I have a friend who passed away a year ago and I met with his son to take some firearms to sell for him. One was a Walther P38 that I have identified as a 4th gen Spreewerk version. It looks as if this might be one of the more common WWII vintage P-38's but I would sure like some help with a...

If a Colt Single Action Army frame was made in 1898 but has been rebarreled and a new cylinder fitted to it, doesn't that render it a "modern" firearm requiring shipping to an FFL?

A friend has given me to sell for him a Colt Single Action Army. It is an old one but has been rebarreled and the cylinder fitted to a 38 spl. It was originally a 41cal. It is fully functional and shoots 38’s just fine with the few rounds I’ve shot through it. I’m still concerned about the...

6" bbl - no box - very good condition $1500 At first I was going to jump on this but after surfing around a little on the internet, I'm not sure it's that good of a deal. What say you?

I've added an EAA Girsan 1911 "Ultimate" in 45 ACP to my 1911 collection. I bought it without the red dot optic but am thinking about putting a red dot on it as I've never had a pistol with a red dot. Since I might carry this pistol (if it proves to be reliable enough), I need a motion...

Going to back off my 45ACP plinking load 1/2 grain and give them a try. Anyone else have any experience doing this?

….what 1911s, other than Wilson Combat, use .300”, 60 degree front sights? I mistakenly ordered a WC fiber optic front sight hoping it would fit my Magnum Research 1911C. It doesn’t. I ordered this from Hooper Gun Works. They were super responsive BEFORE my order and sent me emails every day...

I picked up a couple of PSA lowers and want to try a 9mm "carbine" upper on one of them. A pretty savvy AR-15 man told me that it's a crap shoot trying to get a "budget" 9mm upper to run well. Anyone have any experience on matching PSA 9mm uppers with their standard lowers?

I have a Ruger 1911 9mm and a Scandium frame S&W 45 ACP. Quality wise, to my untrained eye, I don't see a lot of difference. I was cruising around on gunbroker.com and saw that you can get the Ruger in 9mm for around $1000. The S&W's, which did not appear to be "custom" in any way, were...

After racking off 8 45 ACP's from your beloved 1911 (at least I love these guns!), do you look at the casings on the ground and see a $5 bill laying there!? LOL

I have a S&W 1911 now and it is a fine gun. I have noticed that the newer "Performance Center" S&W 1911's have cut-outs in the slide. Other than a minor weight reduction, do these have any function? They cannot act as compensators as they aren't in the barrel and I doubt that the 1911 really...

I bought a S&W “E” Series 1911 online and it came in today. I was elated at the condition and it shoots well too. IT came in the original blue case and it even had the test fired brass in the box. Date: 2004! Now don’t get me wrong - i’m not complaining. A 1911 is a 1911 and this one is a...

Seems like there should be something stamped on the slide. Easy to put nighthawk grips on a fake.

I thought it was Mec-Gar but I can't find any pictures to confirm. Thank you.

Good rumor has it that a company is going to build a plant to make primers. It is allegedly going to be located near Texarkana, Texas. I sure hope this is correct as it should at least accelerate the recovery of reasonable primer costs. Of course, it will take awhile to construct, but at least...

In looking for a Sig Sauer Scorpion 1911, last night I came across a website called buytopguns.com. I couldn't believe (1) their low prices and (2) the fact that they claimed that they had about every model of Sig pistol made in stock and ready to sell. Buds Guns, Whittakers, Palmetto State...

I am selling a few pistols for a friend of mine and am trying to figure out whether this particular Cheetah has any particular uniqueness to it that may enhance value. My brief research shows values all over the place but can't find the particular Beretta 85 FS Cheetah with the "Cal 9 Short"...

I have belonged to TexasGunTrader for several years and as a Texan, have made some sales and purchases through this service. However, I find that a very large percentage of the time, the ads there are scammers. Now, this is not unusual and careful buyers can easily avoid getting duped. My...

.............I want to buy a 9mm barrel for my Glock 22 40 S&W. I found one but the seller recommended that a 9mm guide rod and spring be used in conjunction with the Wolf barrel in Gen 4 pistols, which mine is. Really? and if so, what model of 9mm Glock should I use to pick the right guide...

............why there is nothing nefarious going on in the ammunition industry that is keeping super inflated prices and ridiculous shortages from occurring? Primers have been 3-4 times what the were pre-COVID for several years now if you can find them. I was at Wal-Mart yesterday and saw 330...
