I'm hoping to get lucky here in that someone might recognize this shotgun reciever and help me I.D. it. I got this in peices from my grandmother after my grandfather died, it has some busted parts, and I'd like to repair it. 1. as far as markings : the top of the barrel is marked...

If anyone could help me I.D. a Dan wesson revolver I would appreciate it. It has no model markings, only Dan Wesson Arms Monson, Mass on the frame, and 357 MAGNUM CTG on the barrel. It seems 'N' frame-ish with a vent rib barrel and a full length shroud. Can anyone help?? I want to find...

To any resident expert, I just picked up a great little Enfield break top, but I have one question.... When I break the gun open, the extractor comes up to eject the spent cases, but it stays up. Unlike my S&W break top's wherein the extractor ejects the cases, then resets into the...

Well I just unwrapped my brand new non-thunder ranch Model 21, and I'll have to say I'm kinda dissapointed. I love the gun, however the overall fit and finish is in my opinion lacking compared to the M25 and M57 MG's I have. Tool marks on the top strap, charge holes, and butt. And some kind...

It’s not often or at all that I would engage in a ‘Rant’ on this or any other forum but, I have just met my breaking point with my new edition of Guns & ammo magazine, in an article titled ‘ The once and future .45 ‘ In the above article the author is compelled to spread what I believe to be...

I just picked up a NIB Colt Combat Target with 2 barrels. 45ACP and 400 Corbon I'm not at all familiar with the 400, but I've come to understand it's a 45 necked to a 40. How is it ? Advantages - Disadvantges ? Ammo...........? Any info would be appreciated. I searched the old forums...

I picked up a U.S. Revolver co. DAO break-top .32 s&w revolver not too long ago, and decided to bring it back from the dead. Well to make a long story short, I got that little bugger clean and in operation. It was in really good shape. Then as I pulled the trigger to do a final check on...

Thanks for all the help with my sizing die issue. Now has anyone found a source for JACKETED or SEMI-JACKETED .45 Colt bullets that are NON-HOLLOWPOINT ??????? I want some JSP loads for my M25-13, but I feel like I'm wasting good money to throw hollowpoints at paper all the time. I've...

Does anyone have or has anyone seen grips for the Taurus compact frame ? I can't seem to find any on the net. Or does anyone one know of any comparable smith frame grips that might fit ?

Ok, I'm using R-P .45 Colt Nickel cases, Hornady Dies, and Hornady 250 GR JHP. The problem is I can't seem to get enough neck tension to hold the bullets in place during crimping, I don't even expand the case neck. During crimping the bullet gets shoved down in the case. I'm seating and...

Well it was bound to happen sooner or later, I've been punishing my Taurus M415 .41MAG for years with handloads, and the somehow the cylinder stop malfunctioned. To make a long story short, I called Taurus, sent it back...... 3 weeks later, good as new. Think what we will about Taurus...

I recently shot a friend of mines, Ruger single action Vaquero, and it seemed amazingly left handed in design. I was wondering if, Sam Colt was a lefty ? Or that's just the way it happen to work out. And if anyone has ever seen or heard of a revolver that swings out to the right, for a lefty ...
