    Does/did anyone make a SAA/Peacemaker-"style" revolver in double action?

    Hey guys, A friend asked me the above question the other day, and it stumped me, I couldn't come up with any suggestions. He loves the look of the old Single Action Army aka Peacemaker, and wants to get one for plinking and such. I don't think he's too particular about caliber or manufacturer...

    Hey guys, I received my C&R in the mail a few days ago :D:D, and will be making full use of it in the near future. My first purchase will probably be a Nagant revolver (figured a $100 russian nagant revolver would go well with my $100 russian nagant rifle). After that though, I will be buying...

    Best first gun (.22 revolver?) for my mother: has some hand-weakness

    Hey guys, I recently took my mom out shooting for the first time, and she LOVED it. Was a pretty good shot too. She has definitely expressed interest in getting a gun for herself (I think she liked shooting a handgun the most) so I figured I'd surprise her with one for her birthday coming up...

    First Rifle reloading effort (.223), whats different from pistol?

    Hey all, I recently set myself up with a Lee Classic 4-hole Turret press to reload for pistol (40 s&w) and have gotten pretty comfortable with that. I have it set up with the auto disk pro measure and safety prime system and carbide dies for .40. Since I just ordered a Kel-Tec SU-16C...

    Hey guys, I just built my buddy an AR platform rifle in .223/5.56 for his birthday, and in return he bought me a set of dies for reloading (he comes over and uses my reloading rig more than I do sometimes). We're going to the gun show this weekend, and are gonna grab some components to start...

    Getting a Kempf Lee Classic Kit, what else will I need?

    Hey guys, I'm new to this forum, so go easy on me. I have been wanting to get into reloading for awhile, and decided to bite the bullet (pun intended). After doing some internet research and talking with a friend who has one, I have decided to go with a Lee Classic Turret Press. I'm probably...
