Old thread. Oldie but a goodie ... I Googled 317 Ladysmith to get an idea of value. My wife has a sweet 1.8" BBL 317LS, with the leatherette case and factory trigger lock. My wife likes it, first off, because I see value in that model, especially when pre-lock guns are long in the past. I...

I'd follow up with the supervisor's boss. A non-english-speaking TSA employee wandering off with your luggage would give me the jitters; theft, the concern. Without the employee's badge number, it could be a dead end, since your description might match 35% of the employees working that...

It varies. For 100% reliability and a perfect fit, usually AMT's 380 Backup DAO , [not the SA model] within a Trickster back-pocket holster. I had the PM9 for a while, but switched to this DAO with second-strike capability. The PPK/S in a used, carefully-made OWB, when contracting...

He's to busy dreaming about how he'll really get ahead in the world when his $2/hour raise comes in, after current minimum wage laws are amended.

It sometimes takes serious tongue-biting to keep from dismissing a sibling or two from my life.

Their sidearms, 9mm [mostly], might/would be better with HPs. Going to the .45ACP might be a better idea if we are limited to FMJ. As for the rifle round, I agree that the limited targets are the biggest problem.

I sure wouldn't take one for the first time right before the test. Maybe .5 or 1.0 when you have a really bad time getting to sleep, to see how it affects you [not the day before!] Melatonin would be more safe. Laying off the coffee and cigs. Board games, like backgammon, with a ten...

I'm surprised no one answered the easiest of your questions :) The melting point of lead ... (327.46°C, 621.43°F) I always thought it was 550°, but that might have been 50/50 lead/tin solder.

Ranchers, all the time. Nothing quite matches a .357 shot shell to the nose to tell a bull to quit charging. My note to this: How scary is it to NEED protection when you don't have it?

I'd love to help get back on topic, but it is just floating away ... [Who did the song? Pre-Sonny'n'Cher ??] A trash truck with a blow-out was the loudest bang I've heard lately. He was crossing an intersection, low speed, on a road commonly filled with impatient, frustrated motorists...

Isn't it highly illegal everywhere? Long guns are fine for PPTs. One would want to make sure the receiver has a valid state-issued ID. Handguns are by FFL. C&R is like C&R most other places.

About 200 pounds [by weight, not British currency].

Just hot enough to make caramel from sugar. Add the peanuts, spoon into a buttered pan, let cool. Crack into pieces and enjoy.

Thanks, Gixerman1000. That is a very very nice looking gun. And a great picture. It is the guy's first private purchase, I think. And 9mm should be fine. Thanks again.

Hi, Amy: You are very brave to be able to discuss this. Thanks for keeping in touch. Most people, after thinking about it hard enough, would agree life in prison is a better punishment. Not to go off topic, but it is also much less expensive. Why give these scum the chance to appeal...

Too many differences to be either. Shape of the grip, dust-cover, abbreviated beavertail, hammer ... I've noticed this model for a couple of years now, but have never handled one. I'd sure have remembered it by now if I had. So, a PM is in order. Thanks again.

This might have been it: But I'm not even sure it is a .380. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v238/Gixerman1000/Safe/Safe1.jpg I probably asked him at the time ...

Thanks for the link. I put "380 stainless" into their search function, but, naturally, didn't get nickel copies. I'm leaning towards the BDA, as you suggest. But I'll keep an open mind in the chance it was another.

I'm helping out an acquaintence who is looking at a Browning 380. I recall, during one of the "post your gun safes" discussions, someone had a sharp-looking stainless .380 hanging on the door. I've seen the same gun before. It is not uncommon, but there are not a whole lot of them. I don't...

The sloop, with the weather-gage, coming from the stern. Disable the rudder, sails, lines, tackle. The long cannons were pretty accurate, however ... I can't see the larger ship lowering her flag.
