Just picked up a used Rossi M713 , 6" stainless .357 . When dry fired single action sometimes the trigger will spring forward . In other words you can't hold the trigger back with your trigger finger . It seems the resistance of my finger on the trigger while it's coming forward would keep the...

I need some help with an old top break revolver I forgot I even had.Sorry for the bad cell phone pics but best I can do at this point. It's marked cal.38 on top of the barrel and has a serial number of 39968, other than that I can't make out anything else on it. It does have some other markings...

While cleaning my PPS ( 40 S&W ) I noticed some nasty looking "gouges" along the barrel and was wondering if anyone has seen this before or has any idea what caused it. I bought the gun used a little while ago and have put about 250 trouble free rounds through it for a total of about 400 on the...

Here's my question....do I have to inform a uniformed police officer that I'm legally carrying during a casual encounter? Last week I ran into the father of a girl on my softball team ( I coach a school team ) and stopped to chat a few minutes. He's a Deputy Sheriff, in uniform and on duty. We...

I'm posting this just to vent and not to start a flame war or whatever so take it for what it's worth and go on with your lives. It's long and ugly so you've been warned I had an old Taurus .38 ( model 80 ) that was worn out...cylinder notches worn and Lord knows what else wrong with it...

I just called my local gunshop to order a 4040PD only to find out S&W discontinued these. I can find a few on gunbroker.com so I can still get one but now I'm wondering why it was dropped after a pretty short run. Were there problems with the Scandium ( sp? ) frame? Other problems? A search here...

I was just given ( yeah really ) a very old looking Browning Hi power and I am trying to figure out just what I've got. It is marked "Mark 1*, Browning FN 9mm HP Inglis Canada" and the serial numbers match on the frame, barrel and slide. Overall the finish is poor but not horrible considering...

This is a picture of my S&W 457. What I'm concerned about is the way the slide stop sits way low, like it's almost off the bottom edge of the piece it rides against. This gun has always been like this ( I bought it new in 1998 ), and after owning it a few months I sent it to a S&W service...
