Hey All, found this unfired S&W 66-4 snub for a great price.... After some range work, it will become my defensive carry gun. I've owned (and sold) three 66 snubs in the past, and then I always convince myself that semi auto is the way to go for defensive firearm. Then, I pick up a...

Hey All, It's been a long while since I posted here, but I've frequently stopped in to read all the posts. Just bought a new Cimarron (Uberti) 1858 factory conversion (45LC). I've owned many revolvers, but never seen the following problem. When I cock the hammer, the entire cylinder...

Hey All, I have had a Last Legend competition cutting Katana since 2006, never used it to cut a single thing, but only for Iaido practice. This is a real folded steel sword with a real Hamon, and is was made from Last Legend swords, who are no longer in business. It seems kind of...

Hey All, Been a while since I posted in the black powder sub forum, but I have a question about the following pistol, which is on sale for $199. at Cabela's...

Hey All, Just wanted to show off my pair of 19/66 snubs! K frame S&W are my favorite defensive revolver, and this pair delivers in a TT Gunleather IWB holster!

Hey All, My new favorite: Ruger Vaquero 45 ACP with Eagle Gunfighter grips and Power Customs Bisley hammer and springs kit.

Hey All, Just picked up this 625-4 with 3" barrel. Model of 1989 in 45ACP, which has long been a grail gun for me. Just installed VZ Grip G10's, and WOW, feels good in the hand. Trying to figure out the best way to carry moonclips as reload....without resorting to a belt carrier...

Hey All, I took some advice from this forum and stripped my grips of that horrible red varnish that Uberti applies to their grips. I hope/think I remember someone here giving advice about refinishing grips with Beeswax? Something about heating up the beeswax and dipping the grips in...

Hey All, I've been sporting this Ruger Vaquero Sheriff 45LC model.... wanted to share my carry leather and Eagle Grips. Full reviews to follow, when time allows, but for now, here are pics of my carry rig: Mernickle single action Highride holster. This can be worn both strong-side hip or...

Hey All, Picked up this Ruger Vaquero in 45LC. It is LNIB, and I doubt it has ever been fired (outside of factory function test) A Ruger employee is selling off his collection to the LGS (Ruger factory is 15 miles away from here) and I got lucky with this one! The odd thing about this...

Hey All, This leather is kind of lame, compared to most leather that I have seen here on this subforum.....but... At this time, I am not in a hurry to spend money for nice leather, as I am not a cowboy action shooter, and so the rig will only be worn on occasional range visits. This is...

Hey All, Loving my super tight and accurate factory conversion 1858 from Uberti (Cimarron rollmarked).... BUT....hate the red shiny grips! Any advice for how to properly sand the varnish off WITHOUT altering the shape of the grips? They fit great, and I do not want to screw up the fit of...

Hey All, Just picked up this snub 686 for occasional carry (Glock 26 gets most of the work) Garrett Industries Silent Thunder IWB makes it easy to carry this beast!

Cimarron (Uberti) 1858 Factory Conversion 45LC, w/5.5” barrel Received this revolver from my FFL and right away, noticed the fit and finish were outstanding! Was not expecting such rich bluing and tight tolerances, as previously owned a Uberti Cattleman SAA clone….and it was nowhere near this...

Hey All, Just a couple pics, since I posted range reports last week (with NO pics) The G26 is stock. The G30 has a TLR-3 installed, along with Pearce Grip extension and the Glock beavertail that now comes standard on newer Gen4's

Hey All, sorry, no pics yet (wife out of town with camera) but will post some up eventually! NIB G30 Gen4: I field stripped it to inspect before firing, but did not clean any factory oils or gunk out. (I usually do...) I was using American Eagle 230gr FMJ (100 rounds) and Tula 230gr...

Hey All, I bought a used Glock 26 Gen4, which reportedly had about 400 rounds through it. It appeared NIB when I got it, with no finish wear on the barrel hood or top of barrel. This might be the most boring range report EVER..... ZERO MALFUNCTIONS AND VERY POSITIVE EJECTION! Ammo...

New "Black Cherry" 320's from VZ on the CCO. Also got some Wilson Combat magazines.....

Dan Wesson CCO: update w/Wilson mags Range Report: Dan Wesson CCO Brand new in box, so I field stripped, cleaned out factory oil and relubed. I used Enos Slide Glide (medium) to lube the top of barrel and rails. I used a drop of oil on the pivot point of barrel link. I shot the...

Hey All, Not an entire newbie on the 1911 front, but it has been awhile... Just picked up a SA GI Champion. I fully understand that this model is bare-bones and often prone to problems, but it is not filling any defensive role, just a range toy. I bought two Megcar magazines for...
