I am looking to turn my series 2 kimber into a series 70 type action. I understand that there has been numerous problems with the swartz system hanging up the slide. From my examination I believe changing the firing pin to a standard model will remove the need for the plunger (for lack of a...

I can't help but to buy used 870's whenever I see them, no matter how homely, I think it is related to the sure "bang for your buck you get". They are almost always reliable, you can spend 150-200 bucks and be done, no shopping for mags, holsters, specialty ammo crazy assesories etc. Sure I...

I have a couple of questions regarding Kahr magazines. 1. Does anyone have both the 7 and 8 round 9mm Mags that can tell me the difference internally? I am guessing that that the bodies are the same save for the witness holes as they are both flush fitting. I have 20 (6 for eack full grip...

I guess the title says it all, my first guess is no but seeing as I can't find aftermarket 20 guage stocks listed anywhere, I thought I would ask.

I am supprised with the multiple realiability issues I have seen in the archives, as gun mags seem to be full of praise for the little Kahr's. Athough 2 concerns I had when veiwing the pistol have not been adressed in the archives and I was hoping someone who had quite a few rounds through one...

I find myself in the need to raise a little cash and I have a p-12 that I waited a couple of years for and had custom made by Cylinder and Slide, with 8 preban hicaps. I rarely see fully customized guns for sale on the boards and I was wondering if anyone buys them? Or is it just no one sells...

I just purchased 2 ruger 3 screw blackhawks in 98% with stag grips. They are not converted. They have 4 and 5/8 in barrels and were made in 1958 (flattop). Oh and they are in .357. I was wondering if I got a fair deal at $900 for the pair. These are my first single actions and also my first...
