    Handguns for shooting, punching and stabbing

    I just picked up an H&R knife revolver to go with my Iver Johnson with the Borne knuckle duster. Anyone else out there in highroad land have anything similar? I'd like to get an Apache or Deleaxhe if I could afford one.

    Suicide Special revolver club

    Here are the rules: NO double action revolvers. ONLY spur triggers. Preferably from the golden age of the Suicide Special from 1870 to the late 1800s. Here's a good guideline from Ed Buffaloe's article on the unblinking eye website The term “suicide special” was coined by Duncan McConnell in...

    Strange H&R first model variation 1 1/2?

    Since I'm not getting any responses on the two other forums where H&R collectors are, I thought I'd try here at the good old THR forum to see if anyone here knows anything about H&Rs. I have a pretty good knowledge and have Goforth's book but I've never run into one of these. Here's my post I...

    Avenging Angel snub nose revolver club

    I'd like to see how many other members have "Avenging Angel" revolvers. I have owned quite a few that I've built myself and would like to see other members customizations and have this be a place to share ideas, photos and videos of these interesting guns. Here's a few that I have made over...

    Another Avenging Angel

    Some of you like these things. I made this one out of a Pietta .44 caliber "Reb" revolver. Used a silver coin for the front sight.

    Colt 1902 Sporting .38 ACP

    This is a gun I've wanted for many years and finally was able to work out a trade for one. One of the very first Colt automatics. Designed by John Browning. The only earlier Colt auto was the model 1900 which was very similar to this.

    British Bulldogs

    I'm developing a bit of an obsession with these things. Here's the two I currently have. The one with the plain cylinder is Belgian I believe. The one with the fluted cylinder is American made. I have lost my book on Bulldogs and just ordered another one so I should be able to get a little more...

    A trifecta of Colts. 1903 Pocket Hammers

    I now have three of these things after buying one with serial number 44444 that I just couldn't pass up. These are such great guns. 1922, 1920 and 1904 I shot it this weekend and it shoots great. Hit the can every time.

    Avenging Angels/BP snub nose revolvers

    Someone posted a thread a while back on black powder cap and ball revolvers. Its too old to reply to so I thought I'd start another one. Maybe I've already done this...not sure. But I really like these things and would like to get ideas on other types of revolvers you folks have cut down...

    Uberti first model Dragoon from 1986

    The date code puts this one at 1986. I like that it has "Colts Patent" on the cylinder rather than "Patent No." I assume Colt made them stop putting colt on there at some point. I also kind of like how they mimicked the colt name on the frame only with the Uberti name. Interesting. Overall I...

    Harrington & Richardson Self Loading .25

    This is one of the guns I won at the Poulin Auction. Really cool and as well made as any Colt. I think it's definitely the most well made gun that H&R ever produced. I'm surprised it came out the same factory as all of those cheap top breaks. From what I have researched so far these were made...

    Merwin Hulbert 7 shot .32

    Just picked this up at Cabelas for $449. It cleaned up really nice. I should have taken a before shot of it. The old nickel was really dull and almost white. A little Flitz gave it new life I think Here it is with my blue .38 MH. This one has two barrels with matching numbers

    Allen & Thurber Pepperbox

    Ever since I bought a S&W baby Russian earlier in the summer I've been thinking about this Pepperbox that was next to it. And ever since I was a kid and played the game "Clue" I've wanted one. This is what I once thought a "revolver" was and I guess technically it is. Anyway, I happened by the...

    Forehand & Wadsworth "Terror"

    I saw this one on Gunbroker and needed to make a bid on it. It looked to be in excellent shape and a snubnose to boot. I received it today and I wasn't disappointed. Nice and tight with most of the original nickel intact. I cleaned up the bore and chambers and the chambers are clean and the bore...

    FNH Browning 1900

    I picked this up at Cabelas today. It had been sitting there watching me for a few months. I finally decided I needed to have it. The first Browning automatic pistol and the first pistol to use a slide. Also I believe the first pistol ever chambered in what is now known as the .32 ACP. I love...
