I've been watching the online pricing of 9mm (and other calibers), and partaking in deals when they pop up. When that happens, the great deals only last a matter of minutes! This is the tool that I've been using to grab the good deals on 9mm- It can be changed to find other calibers too...

Thanks for all the input on my previous post about my friends friend's screw barrel pistol. Hopefully they can be reunited. Here are some pics of a Schuetzen-type blackpowder rifle owned by the same person. The caliber is approx. .45 . The buttplate is magnetic. There are no markings or...

Here is one for the experts! A friend of my best friend owns the antique screw-barrel pistol shown here. He has owned it for many years and wanted to get more information about it as he now wants to sell it. My best friend calls me about it, sends me some pics, and naturally I do a Google...

I just picked this revolver up from a local antique store for $45. It appears to be in good working condition- Indexes & functions perfectly. Any idea of the year it was made? The serial number on the grip frame (under the grips) is either 68 or 89- Depending on which way you look at it. I...

Hi folks! A few months ago I picked up a Remington Model 11 at a second-hand shop for cheap. Among other things, It had serious issues with the reciever. Some of the folks who replied to my thread on another forum suggested that I part the gun out, as it was a hopeless junker. I just...

I finally got to do some shooting at my dad's farm yesterday. Shoot my Uberti Remington Revolving Rifle and ASM Colt Walker for the first time! I was using my paper cartridges for the Remington carbine, 30 gr. Pyrodex with .454 balls. What a blast this carbine is; Lots of fire and smoke, and...

After drooling for one of these for a LONG time, I finally one at a local BP show today- For a bargain price! An Armi san Marcos kit gun from 1982 (AI date stamp), it is still quite rough around the edges. After a little work on the metal, re-contouring the grips, and antiquing with plum...

Hope this helps- Enjoy! John

I was just on the Cabela's website and I see that they have it listed as "Out of stock, Cannot Re-order". That means if you want one of these, you gotta visit a Cabela's store that still has them in-stock. These are a sweet and exciting pistol, and very fun to shoot- get one while you can...

While not a traditional Remington blackpowder pistol, These are VERY interesting! It's kinda nice to see modern technological improvements being done on these vintage guns. I want a Matchmaster! www.westlakeengineering.com/4640/4694.html Check it out, John

Hey folks! Just a follow up to my earlier post about the price hike of C&B pistols at Cabela's. I sent an email to Cabela's a few days ago expressing my displeasure about their price increase. Well, On Monday I got a phone call from a Manager (Mr. Horn) at the Cabela's in Owatonna, MN. He...

Most of the blackpowder pistols at Cabela's are $20 higher than they were yesterday. The snubnose Colts's stayed the same, though (I already have the 1860 snubnose). I was going to go over to the Cabela's in Owatonna, MN on Thursday to get a new Remington Army. I guess I might have to do a...

As a newbie here, I've read thru most of the posts with facination (mostly :) ). I find it quite entertaining to read the "oldest gun", "worst gun", etc... posts. So I ask: What gun did you own that you shouldn't have sold or lost. Or, What gun did you come close to buying that you are...
