My second revolver, my only real shooter. Have wanted one before I even knew what they were called. Got some new grips for it (fit the hand great, fit the gun, not the best). HD gun, stays in my nightstand. Don't think I could part with it... Decided to give it a little show for all you fine...

Looking for some opinions on a handgun with hd/sd in mind. I currently have a .38 J-frame and the recoil is enough to dislocate my wrist. (car accident dislocated both shoulders and wrists, no amount of therapy will improve my situation and the threat of early arthritis is very real). So at this...

I have heard now more than once that the M36/J frame is an "experts" gun, not one to be used by a novice. Is there any credence to this? I am a new owner of a M36-2 1 7/8" barrel, only gun I currently own (and have not shot as of yet, my first gun that I intend to shoot, bought as a HD/SD...

Looking for the usual reliability and accuracy, but also looking at value. Only have about $300 to spend. What's the best bang for my buck? I am not a bottom feeder fan at all.

One of my local LGS has a 77/22, synthetic stock and scope. It looks decent, minor pitting but seems in good shape otherwise. It was on the shelf for $400 used and that seemed high. It has gone down, but still seems pricy. What's a good value for this? What kind of accuracy can I expect out to...

Shopping for a 36 and came across one today. It appears in perfect mechanical condition. It does not have original grips, it has some ill-fitting rubber monogrips. There is some visible rust around the top of the grip. I hope to go back with a screwdriver and pull the grips to see what's...

How much would it cost to have the aforementioned Arisaka rebarrelled to accommodate a more common round? I have one and hear great things about durability, would be nice to redo it a bit and keep it alive.

Can someone point me to a good how-to on cleaning a revolver? I have found a lot of different ways to do it, I would like to be thorough... (A bolt action rifle one would be helpful also, just don't have it right yet). Thanks in advance!

Along with my Lend-Lease Victory model S&W, I received an Arisaka Type 38. Gun appears to be in good shape, has the barrel cleaning stick, no shoulder-strap or dust-guard, and the mum was ground down (you can see some of it still, but mostly gone). The action still appears to be in very good...

I received this when my grandmother passed; S&W .38. From what it looks like, it was a police issue in Austria. It is my first (and only at this time) handgun. I know that she used to shoot it in the late 80's and early 90's before arthritis put a stop to it. I would not be surprised if it...

I have never owned a pistol, or any other type of firearm for that matter, and recently came into possession of a deceased grandparents 38 S&W revolver. I have been kicking around the idea of having a pistol for home defense for a while, just never really did anything about it. Now I have this...
