    Hard Chroming a Model 34

    I have two model 34-1s; one a 2" and the other a 4". Lovely little revolvers albeit a bit hard to shoot well. The 2" has some freckling under the old Hogue grips and I was thinking of hard chroming it as a pocket/ kit gun for around the farm to dispatch a variety of unsavory and unhealthy...

    Dan Wesson 1911 External Extractor

    Ok Guys I have two DWs from the early part of the 21st century, a Patriot and a CBOB. Both from that vintage utilize external extractors. DW no longer supports the extractors and after doing some research I found out that the early vintage DW extractors are really S&W M1911 extractors. On...

    Recoat of an Epoxy Finish

    Just acquired a NIB BHP with the ugly digital Camo epoxy finish. Is there a product or process that, without stripping all of the old finish can be applied over the existing epoxy? I know I should have bought a beautiful blued BHP if I don't like the digital Cammy but at $520 OTD I'm willing...

    S&W 1917 Extractor

    Gents and Ladies; I inherited my Grandfather's S&W 1917 from my Uncle when he passed. This revo will not win any beauty contests but it was Papaws. When I got it I discovered that it was not rolling up far enough for the cylinder to lock before the hammer would fall. I found a local gunsmith who...

    Revolver Smith Needed

    I have my grandfathers Smith and Wesson 1917 Revolver in 45 ACP. The finish is horrible, the barrell at best so so and it need some timing help. When cocked slowly or rolled up slowly in double action the cylinder does not index sufficiently for the cylinder bolt to drop before the hammer...
