Picked up one of these today, in Good to VG condition, for $300. I know the Commando was a wartime model, starting with Serial number 1 in 1942. Mine is in the low 3900's. Anyone know when it was made, and when they stopped making them?

I just bought this, LNIB. Blue, 6", adjustable sights, serial no. 7K40XXX, model 19-3. How old is it, and is there anything I should know before shooting it?

I just got home with a new toy, a 1927 Colt Sistema, and amazingly enough, just caught the UPS guy with my Natchez order, which included thre Chip McCormick Shooting Star magazines. I'm playing with the new gun (very nice, and only $300!), and I try to slip in one of the new magazines... It is...

http://defence-data.com/current/page9268.htm Interesting stuff. Sounds like a perfect military setup for keeping down a bunch of rebellious rapscallions, though I doubt it's anything so sinister.

I wish to purchase a Falco shoulder rig (CZ-75) for a friend as a Christmas present, but Makarov.com's store is closed until the end of December. Any other sources?

I recently upgraded to IE 5.5, and now my last login cookies are reset anytime I open another link within a post. When I come back to the forums menu page, it shows that there are no new posts since my last visit. Not a big deal, especially if you're going to new software, but kind of a pain...

I've decided to get myself a CZ75, but I have some options and some questions. I found a new, unfired 1985 (or so says the owner) model for only a pittance more than I can get one of the military overrun types. The 85 has two full-capacity magazines, box, and manual. The new one comes with...

I want one! For hunting deer, of course ;). http://defence-data.com/current/page8065.htm 9 August 2000 The US Army's next generation personal weapon, the Objective Individual Combat Weapon (OICW), has entered the next phase in its development. The US Army Armament, Research, Development...

Looking into the purchase of a used S&W 6926 for a friend. Any experience, caveats? What's a fair price for one in VG/EX condition?

I'm in the market for a gun cabinet or locker. A safe is just too heavy and pricey for my needs right now. About all I've seen are the Stack-On brand (Midway has 'em for what looks like decent prices - $180 for an eight gun, $250 for a twelve, $300 for a sixteen). Anyone have any experince...

"Nearly a third of the crowd at SAFE Colorado's rally Wednesday were metro-area students who got the day off to see President Clinton up close." Since when is this education - attending an anti-freedom rally at MY expense! I don't care if SAFE paid for the gas and driver's salaries, this is...

I just got back home from the Front Range IDPA Owl Canyon match. Two scenario stages, one standards stage, and a rifle side match. For Kathryn and Dr. Rob, it was their first match ever, and both did astoundingly well! I was lucky enough to be Safety Officer for their squad, and it really...

I've a friend who's interested in this rifle, and I want to know more about it. I understand it was chambered in .348, .30-06, and .270. How many are out there? What are they worth? Pros/cons?

I've a few week old Mossy 590 that doesn't always feed the last round out of the tube properly. The shell doesn't jump out of the tube when the elevator drops, but when the elevator rises and the bolt goes forward it does - right out onto the ground by my feet. The cartridge stop seems to be...

Thanks to Coinneach, I've been bitten by the scattergun bug, and have tons of questions. I've been unable to find a good source for answers to things like what the difference is between upland game shells and target shells, what the exact size of each size of shot is, and what the hell is a...

I'm off to an estate auction this weekend. A rural farmer has passed and nobody wanted his guns. What can anyone give me regarding the fair value of the following firearms (these are from the ad, so the descriptions may not be accurate): Remington 870 Ruger 77, .223 w/scope Remington Mark...

I got a call this morning from a Stephanie Kubric representing Tom DeLay's office and the Gun Owners' Task Force. She played a recorded message from DeLay that sounded pretty good, then asked me to become a charter member for $150. I asked for more information on what the money was used for...
