    Any love for the 9x18 ?

    I used to love the 9x18 when I could get a box of ammo for 8 bucks. I had 3 Makarovs. Sold it all off when the ammo went up and rumors of ammo drying up came about.

    Good Deals on .40s???

    I already do! Have been to the range twice, and it's been 100% reliable, and shoots to poa after drifting the rear sight a bit.

    Good Deals on .40s???

    Keep checking your local Armslist. I bought a P226 for 330, and P229 for 300 in .40. The 226 was a CPO, and both were in new condition from the same seller. He also had an unfired Kahr K40 stainless with wood grips for 300 that I could not resist. Don't settle for a beater. Deals are out there.

    CZ75 polished stainless pic

    Pimp gun, barbecue gun...doesn't matter to me, as I've referred to it many times that way. I am definitely old school, loving wood and steel....blued single action revolvers etc. But this one...wow. I have enough carry guns. Enough others for target and whatever else. But this one, I actually...

    CZ75 polished stainless pic

    This is sort of my grail gun. I've had a couple of 75's in the past, but cannot get over the beauty of this one. I got it like new, with everything you see on the cheap. I've been blessed with great deals this past year!

    Ruger Blackhawk. What would you do?

    11 days. Enough to at least acknowledge my email. I offered to send them pics. I didn't call. One chance only. I won't beg. I'll sell it cheap first, or give it away.

    Ruger Blackhawk. What would you do?

    Update. I emailed Ruger from their website. No reply whatsoever. Yay Ruger! I've had alot of them, but this will apparently be my last. Too bad. They once sent me a free set of scope rings when I contacted them to purchase them. Over and above customer service then. Things have changed. I'll...

    Ruger Blackhawk. What would you do?

    On the lower 1/3 of the sight, it has a few gouges on the side. Then on the lower 1/3 serrations, about 50% are flattened, BUT ARE BLUED. Not white metal. So in effect, it is a bright blue finish, causing the glare. Now this was from the factory, so I don't know what happened. Damaged by tooling...

    Ruger Blackhawk. What would you do?

    Ruger would be wise to pin a front sight on the blued models as they do the stainless. I can't even imagine why they dont. I sent them an email and offerred pics to them. Will see. If not, I'll put a few coats of orange paint on. That will fill the serrations in, as quite a few are squished now...

    Ruger Blackhawk. What would you do?

    No. It's a late ser. #. There are tons of pics of *blued .357 Blackhawks on GB that show a no pin, no screw front sight. I'm not sure why there is confusion on this. This does not apply to stainless. There is a pin on those.

    S&W 648 revolver

    Agreed it doesn't matter on a non carry gun. Except for the subtle frame bulge that most people cant notice, but I notice immediately. When lock guns are for sale, a right side only pic is posted. Trying to hide it ya know...I can still tell immediately. Don't like it.

    Ruger Blackhawk. What would you do?

    Look everyone. There is NO screw. There is NO pin. The entire front sight is an integral 1 piece unit... ?silver soldered? to the barrel I'd happily replace it myself.

    Ruger Blackhawk. What would you do?

    Yes, it was a NIB gun from a dealer. I have purchased many firearms over the internet without any problem at all. I was in the right place at the right time, and got a great deal, that's all. I'm not whining over a used gun I got cheap. Not a big deal. If the sight was pinned or screwed on, I'd...

    Ruger Blackhawk. What would you do?

    Yeah so? Does it matter if it was a good deal, or a premium was paid? It was purchased new from a dealer. Whatcha getting at?
