Hi guys, need a little help from the GP shooters out there. Or well, anyone that wants to throw their hat in really. I ordered a 4 inch adjustable sighted GP-100 back a few months ago, and it and I have been having a little bit of a communication problem. My shooting with it has been a bit...

I have just recently gotten into hog hunting, and let me say that the bug has really bit me. It really seems to be filling in those gaps between deer and turkey season for me like squirrel and coyotes couldn't quite do (although I haven't given those up entirely). Anyway, I was thinking that it...

Alright, this isn't the normal question of whether or not the .357 is adequate for feral hogs. I know that the popular consensus is that it is marginal. And normally, I carry a .44 for backup. However, it does get kinda uncomfortable on the hip after walking all day, and my friend that goes with...

Hi guys, for those of you who saw my posts on the King Cobra (and who have a Wilson's) I was wondering what the approximate build date on my King Cobra is. KS447X Thanks in advance.

I received some mixed new today from a friend of mine concerning a Colt King Cobra. Now, I have been on the prowl for one of these guns for awhile, and the good news is that he has found one. Stainless, 4 inch, just exactly what I am looking for. The bad news is two-fold: one it is at a pawn...

I was wondering about the grips that presently come on the Models 10, 67, and 619. I THINK they are called Uncle Mike's Combat Grips, but I am not completely sure. I have searched everyone (on the net) to find these, but have been unable to locate them. I really like those grips and am...

Hi guys, today I ordered a GP-100 SS. Before tax, it was $450. I also noticed that on their site they are listed at $615. I was thinking a year or so ago they were listed in the $500 range. I am not really complaining, as they do make a fine product. They are still cheaper than a Smith, but not...

Hi guys, I have a little question about timing concerning a beater Astra .357 I picked up a few months ago. I bought the gun as an under the seat gun...but now I doubt it will ever go there as I don't trust it. When you are shooting the gun SA only there is not a problem at all. Slow DA is the...

Hi guys, I picked up a Colt Official Police a couple of days ago. It is my first Colt ever, and I must say that it keeps growing on me. Anyway, I was wondering if some could give me a ball-park year for the gun. The numbers from the crane assembly are 7395XX Thanks in advance for any help.

Well, for those of you who read my questions about the Taurus Model 80, I decided against it. However, I did go to my usual store today to see if he had anything in that I hadn't seen yet, and he had two that caught my eye. Model 629-1: 8.38 inch barrel, target hammer and trigger. Checked it...

Hi guys, today I stopped by a pawn shop to check out what they had in stock. Ended up picking up a S&W Model 10-14, but that is beside the point. They had a Taurus Model 80 (.38 Special) that I am just a little interested in. You see, I am looking for something to carry in the woods with me when...

Last week I went down to the local gunshop that I do buisness with and ordered both a Ruger Sp101 .357 3 incher and a Taurus Model 44 (.44Mag) 4 incher. The Ruger will likely eventually be my bedside/sometimes carry gun. The Taurus I bought to carry as backup on hog hunts. But, anyway, I thought...

I have noticed that a few have asked about these guns on here, and I just got a chance to take mine out yesterday so I thought I would post this. If this has already been done in one of the replies, my apologies. In the past month, I have actually bought two of these guns, but haven't had a...

Tonight I was looking at various grip companies online and when I got to Pachmayr's site, something caught my attention. In their revolver grips page, for the Pachmayr Decelerator Grips, it has what they say is a K-frame S&W. I noticed though that the gun looks fitted for a left-handed person...

I am pretty sure that I will soon be getting a S&W Model 620, and was just wondering about the grip frame. Is it round or square butt? Or are they available in both? Also, if it is round, will either style of Hogue Monogrip (square or round) work on it? I know that sounds counter-intuitive, but...

Hey everybody, about a month ago, I bought a used Model 13-3 Nickel finish. I have shot it twice I think, about 20 times each session. Other than that It has been sitting in the box. As far as looks go it is at least 95%, and the action is very smooth on it. However, I got it out this weekend to...

I have recently been mulling over getting a new Model 627 and was just wondering what some of you have either paid for them or seen them listed at (new). I know on the S&W website the MSRP is $1,161 (what a random number), but you can typically find a better deal than what is listed on their...
