    Opinions needed on Browning BLR 308 for whitetail

    Two Thumbs UP! I've got one and will never sell it. Mine wears a Leupold Vari-X III 1.5-5, but the scope you mentioned will be just dandy. I have too many deer/BG rifles (is that even possible :p) so the BLR 308 is a "shooting guest/loaner" piece. Mine is the older model with a dull oil...

    Bianchi Holsters- Leather Care??

    Thanks for the replys. Its a Bianchi 5BH RH for the 4" S&W K frames as well as some Colts and Ruger revolvers. They used a really good grade leather, thread, stitching etc etc. A little saddle soap cleaned up some smudges on the outside right away. I'll get the clear shoe polish and buff it up...

    Bianchi Holsters- Leather Care??

    Hey Guys, I recently came into a Bianchi holster perfect for my S&Ws K frames. In really nice shape and it was made in the USA too.:D The leather looks abit thirsty. What do you guys use for leather care on Bianchi holsters? Thanks. Natty B.

    Ruger LCR .357

    I've been looking at the LCR. I LUV my S&Ws (M65,M66) but I thought the trigger on the LCR was better- very smooth and less stacking. NB

    Converting a S&W Mdl 65 3"HB to DAO??

    Excellent Point Guillermo, Thank you for that important safety reminder. I was aware of that situation but that little item surely bears repeating, perhaps new information for someone else reading this thread. After reading the consensus, I'm going to leave well enough alone with this...

    Converting a S&W Mdl 65 3"HB to DAO??

    Good Post Thanks to you, Mr. Camp, for a most informative and helpful post. One of the others above was either gratuitous or simply swarmy, still can't decide!!:rolleyes: Natty B.

    Converting a S&W Mdl 65 3"HB to DAO??

    I have a S&W MDL 65 3"HB used primarily as a house/bedroom gun. As such, I would like to convert it to DAO only, especially as my wife may need to use it if the worst happens. Now, how to go about this? :confused: Install a spurless hammer? Is the correct hammer for DAO still available from...

    J-frame match for S&W 65???

    Yup, that Mdl 65 3" HB is a real sweet heart. The CFO has taken a particular affection to it and I know better than to try any gun trading action in that direction.:D Natty B.

    J-frame match for S&W 65???

    OK guys, take it easy on me as this is my first post on here........;) I'm not a handgun guy and find the S&W model changes, new additions, dropped models, etc etc somewhat confusing for my simple mind. I have had two S&Ws for a long time- a 4" Mdl 66 bot an all round 38/357 and a Mdl 65 3"...
