    My "new-to-me" Speed Six problem..

    As I posted a couple of days ago I picked up a Ruger Speed Six .357. I have since put roughly 300 rounds (mix of .38 & .357) through it and noticed that it has problems shooting reloads. The cylinder or hammer catches about a quarter way back when pulling the trigger for DA or pulling the...

    Ruger Speed Six .357...

    Went into my LGS to look at 3" GP100 they had as I've been looking for a 2-3" .357 for a little while. Next to the GP100 I see a blued Speed Six 2.75" that looks in good condition. I check it out and it passes the revolver checkout on here. They had it marked at $480, I talk them down to $450...

    Glock 42 mag holders...?

    Is anyone making mag holders for the Glock 42 mags yet? All my single stack ones are way too tight and the double stack are way too loose. Just been keeping a spare loose in my pocket for now but never liked doing that.

    S&W 64....What's a fair price?

    Looking at trading for a 64, what's it worth? (I don't really know revolvers). It's a 4" pencil pinned barrel, no dash S&W 64, some minor scratches (that'll easily buff out) and wear/scratches on grips but no cracks. Lock up is nice and tight, and both DA & SA triggers are nice/smooth.

    Ruger MKII Target Slabside SS 5.5"....what's it worth?

    I have one in 98% condition minus factory rings that just sits in the safe. Thinking about trading for something I might shoot. So what's a good trade/sell value on these?

    Traded for a Winchester M70 today...

    Picked up a very good condition M70 .243 today that I plan on making my deer rifle. It's got a Zeiss Conquest 3-9x40 on it. Smooth action, looking forward to testing some rounds soon. I was just wondering if some could give me a manufactoring date? Serial is G101****. Thanks

    Looking at a used Blackhawk Convertible .357/9mm

    Been looking for a .357 to take camping/4-wheeling at the river and what-not. I've owned a couple of DA/SA ones before (GP100, SP101, S&W60) and was really looking for a good used SP101 again but can't find one local. (don't want to buy online cause I'd like to check it out first) Anyways...

    New to me Colt Govt .380?

    Just got this handed down to me. Don't know much about it. I thought it was a Mustang but I see it's a little different. So can anyone tell me about these little .380s? Thanks

    Firearms related tattoos...

    Haven't seen a thread on firearms related tatts in a while and since I got a new tatt today, I thought I'd start one. Got a M24 rifle on my leg today. Since I carried one for a little over 4 years, I figured I'd get one tatted on me. It goes with the infantry crossed rifles and airborne wings...

    Got a Auto-Ord 1911 today...

    I've never been much of a 1911 guy, owned 6 of all different brands and the one I came closest to keeping was a STI Ranger II in 9mm (actually regret selling that one :o). Anyways, this a basic goverment model Auto-Ordnance. It's had a Chip McCormick trigger/hammer swapped in along with an...

    rust resistant finsh for LC9?

    Been carrying my Ruger LC9 all summer and in this Texas heat I'm a pretty bad sweater. If I don't take the mag release outta the gun and clean/oil it every 2-3 days I start getting surface rust on it pretty bad, same goes for the rear of the slide. I've decided that once it starts cooling off...

    Ruger American .243....short/long action?

    Just as the title states, is the .243 version of the Ruger American built on a short or long action reciever? The only one I've yet to see in person was the '06 and I was just wondering if they used the same long action reciever for all the calibers.

    which .22mag bolt gun?

    Wanting a .22mag bolt gun and not sure where to begin. I will want it scoped (prolly a 4x), it won't be used for much other than punching holes in paper out to 100yds, maybe a little small game hunting but not much so it doesn't have to be sub-MOA. Prefer light-weight, don't want a mag...

    trade SP101 for LC9 yes/no?

    Played with a LC9 at the LGS shop today and really liked it. I carry a LCP almost daily and really like it, would have gotten an LC9 earlier but didn't like the manual safety. However, after playing with it today, I think I could get by just without using the safety. The thing is, is the...

    selling/shipping pre-'86 (no serial #) gun?

    selling/shipping pre-'68 (no serial #) gun? I've got a Stevens 325B I'm about to put up for sale but have a question about shipping it first. Keeping it short and sweet: Is selling/shipping a firearm that was made before 1968 with no serial number different than selling/shipping a newer...

    Mossberg 500/Maverick 88 parts interchange?

    Does the Mossberg 500 and Maverick 88 use the same "action slide tube assembly"? I've decided since I can't find the 20" barrel/8rd mag tube for my 500, I'm just gonna buy a complete shotgun with the barrel/mag tube I want and swap parts. I would like to keep the wood stock/forend that's on my...

    New SP101 grip panels...

    It's amazing how much better some nice wood grip panels make the SP101 look. Picked these up from a member here (1chig), these are splated maple but he's got several different types of wood. If you're looking for any panels for your SP101 or GP100, I'd suggest you check him out. :cool:

    IWB holsters for SP101?

    I'm used to carrying slim semi's but lately have been wanting to carry my DAO 2 1/4" SP101 more. It's too big/heavy for me to pocket it comfortably (my LCP is as big as I'll go for pocket). I don't like OWB unless I'm open carrying out in the woods and I can't find a IWB I like. Those that...

    Stevens 325B sights?

    Ok so I've decided I'm not going to scope the Stevens 325B I got not too long ago, however I would like some better sights. Does anyone offer a decent replacement set of sights for this rifle? Some fiber optics would be great. :) Thanks

    Ever owned the exact same gun more than once?

    A couple years ago, I lost my job and had to sell off a bunch of my firearms to pay bills and keep food on the table. Well, I've got to where I can build up a little bit of a collection again. I used to have a Ruger 22/45 and really enjoyed it so I've been looking to replace it. Seen a guy on...
