checked out their selection of revolvers. This shop has a habit of overpricing some guns and being fair on others. So I spy a six inch barreled blue Colt Trooper Mk III, easily 98% condition for $400, fair, but I don't need another six inch 357. A S&W model 19, pinned and recessed, again, 98%...

Everyone says the S&W 645/4506 is built like a tank and will outlast the 1911. Anyone have any proof?

So today I stopped by the local sporting goods and pawn shop. There has been a used Kimber 1911-A1 in the case for a while, so today I decided to have a look. The clerk said the story behind this gun was that it spent a lot of time under the seat of a car. Well, it looked it! The clerk also...

Here is a range report on my 4506 that I purchased used. It is actualy marked as a 645 and is one of the 150 transitional models that was mismarked. The only ammo used in this first test was Winchester's USA white box 230 grain FMJ. All ammo fed flawlessly from the factory metal base...

I have a Tasco Pro-Class 3x22 pistol scope, 30mm tube, made in Japan. I am thinking about putting this on my Ruger Super Redhawk, 44 Magnum, 7 1/2 inch barrel, but I am wondering if this scope will withstand the recoil. Can anyone chime in and let me know if it is worth buying some 30mm rings...
