It's possible that this might belong in the "Gunsmithing" area, although until I try a few more things I figured I would consult the general public of the Revolver section first. I recently acquired a Colt King Cobra in good shooter condition, however I have discovered that when stroking the...

I recently ran across a Smith and Wesson Model 620 and must admit that until recently I was not familiar with this model. This is largely due to the fact that I simply can not recall ever seeing one in person or even on online auction sites. Of course everyone knows about the ubiquitous 686, but...

I did stop by and have a quick conversation with one of the gentlemen manning the Colt Booth. I didn't think to ask about their plans for Florida, but I did ask about double action revolvers (the two subjects have been mentioned as possibly related from time to time). The rep. said that...

Oh, and Stoeger M3000 12 gauge semi-auto. So far I have been very pleased and looks to be a good value 3 gun option.

How do you like that 556xi so far? Function Reliably? How about the fit and finish? I have been strongly considering the 7.62x39 version when it finally reaches market, assuming I haven't heard any horror stories. Seems SIG has a bit of a history with long guns being released with a few bugs...

Colt Python (Royal Blue , 4") S&W Model 19 (Blue, 4") S&W Model 65 (3") S&W Model 640 Pro Series Really want to add a King Cobra and 627 Performance Center to the that list, but alas, so many guns, so little money...

I'm going to have to cast another vote for the Garand. Although I have a wide variety of new-age polymer semi-auto rifles that I also I enjoy, the only rifles that I ever find myself getting out of the safe just to hold and look over are the old ones made of wood and steel.

I've been thinking this one over for a day or two now. I found for sale a used S&W Model 617 10 shot .22 with 4" barrel, original box, and original grips along with aftermarket wood grips. Looks to be in very good condition with no visible stratches and no apparent damage from any dry...

Either a S&W Model 617 ten shot for cheap(er) DA revolver practice, or a Colt AR-15A4 because I really would like a classic looking 20" AR made by Colt. Money (or lack of) would be the reason for their current absence from my safe.

In case this hasn't yet been seen by members on this forum, here is a picture that Colt recently posted to its Instagram account that's been floating around the internet lately. http://instagram.com/p/o6oWV1p1Tc/# As you can see, the caption reads: "Colt Customer Service reviewing Colt...

Thanks for all of the feedback guys. I'll probably go back and at least take another look at it.

So I was in a gun shop this past weekend and came upon a gun that I am familiar with, but had never had the pleasure of even holding, let alone firing: A Colt 1903 Pocket Hammerless in .32 ACP. This particular example was manufactured in 1920, which I have since found to be considered a...

The only two revolvers that I frequently carry are my S&W Model 640 Pro J-frame and Model 65 K-frame. The model 65 I often carry OWB during the winter months, and during the summer I frequently carry the Model 640 Pro IWB. To me any of the following guns are sized appropriately to be able to...

26 years old and, in order of frequency of carry: S&W Model 640 Pro, Ruger LCP, Springfield XDs 9mm. I find that what most often dictates what I carry is the temperature. The hotter it gets the smaller the gun becomes. During the colder winter months when I can use a jacket to help conceal...

Thanks for the welcome. It is true that the old Colt actions were very expensive to produce, and that is why it was stated that the Python will not be coming back. However, this is why Colt developed the Mark III and Mark V pistols with a completely different action that was much...

Sure, neither you nor myself know what Mr. Dennis's credentials are, but Grant Cunningham, the source of this information, has just about the strongest credentials that you can find when it comes to revolvers and has quite literally written the book on revolver shooting fundamentals, defensive...

I know that it seems that this rumor gets spread around the internet once or twice a year, but this time the information comes from a reputable source. Well known gun writer and revolver-smith Grant Cunningham stated on the most recent episode of the Gun Nation Podcast (Episode 98) that...
