    625-2 going back to S&W.

    My like new 625-2 has developed a binding problem. I am so pissed off right now. The last time I shot it, it didn't have this problem. I cleaned it with a Lewis lead remover, so it isn't carbon build up. I took it out today and after 24 rounds it started to bind. The binding was so bad, it...

    Winchester Supreme 230gr SXT

    Has anyone done and expansion testing with this ammunition? I bought three boxes of this stuff for home defense a while ago, and just got around to using it. I just checked ammolab, and when they tested it, they got zero expansion. I am sure it's good stuff, but I want something that will...

    What have I done!

    I planned on trading off a few guns, to buy another Garand. Well my plan backfired, when I saw another 5" S&w 625-2. I couldn't help myself, I tell ya! :o Oh well, I guess the new Garand will have to wait awhile longer. :( I traded off a nice 27-2, and my Taurus pt-111. I have to say...

    Rich, I am Sorry to see TFL go!

    I am sorry to see it go, but I understand your position. I wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors! I have been a member of TFL since May of 99 and I have logged on almost everyday, TFL is kind of a home away from home. I will miss it. I don't know what else to say.

    ActionBow

    I am not sure where to post this question. I have an old bow, it's an actionbow from the maker of ActionRod and the thing is like 45 or so years old. It is yellow in color with a leather hand grip, it takes a 45# string. I would like to know if it's worth anything.

    S&w 27-2

    I just picked up a mint 4" nickle plated S&W 27-2 P/R. It shoots like a dream, and has the sweetest trigger I have ever seen on a revolver this side of a Python. I paid 339.00 for it, I tried to resist but couldn't! Can someone help me out on the year it was made? S/N N760XXX

    Century Arms Dealer section.

    Can anyone get in to it? I was given a username and password months ago and used to check out the deals often. I even bought a rifle from them on my C&R, now I can't get in at all.:mad:

    *Taurus PT111* I am so MAD!

    I bought a Taurus PT111 a couple weeks ago. I took it apart to clean it after I got it home. I remember it being hard to put back together when I was done. I didn't think about it much then. I took it out yesterday to runs some ammo through it. I fired 50 rounds of Mag-Tech and 20 round of Speer...

    C&R forum?

    Would it be much trouble to have one? I know some questions could be put in other forums, but I think it would be nice to have them all together. I have put in an application for a C&R license and am very interested in older firearms.:)

This book is a lot better than the NRA training manual that you...

    C&R license holders

    I am thinking about getting one, I have thought about this for some time. Would getting one make me a target for the ATF? I really like older guns, and have bought a few through my local dealer. I really like the idea of buying at dealer cost and cutting out the middle man. Has any one ever had...
