    I have a Colt Match Target Competition HBAR II. Using Colt serial number site at Colt's Manufacturing LLC I have been unable to find any info. The search yields a "serial number cannot be found message. Nor can I find the prefix, CJC, listed in any records. Can anyone help shed some light on...

    A Turkish HK? Canik Elite SC and HK P2000SK

    I've owned my P2000SK for about 15 years. I love this gun. It is the perfect pistol for me. Every control is where I want it, the grip fits my hand, I can see the sights and they line up naturally. The trigger, (DA/SA), is perfect. I shoot it well. It has never failed. I even like and...

    Hawes .25acp pocket pistol questions

    Just recently came across this small pocket .25acp marked Hawes Firearm Co. Made in Germany. Until now I'd never heard of or seen a "Hawes" anything. I've found very little info about this company and in particular this gun. Seems Hawes imported both Galisi and J.P.Sauer. I assume this one...

    Arisaka ID help needed

    I'm looking for help appraising and identifying this Arisaka rifle. I think it's a bring back from the war era and then sporterized. So far I think it's a 6.5mm T38. The only marks are in the two photos that show them, the "Mum" and the serial number with a factory cartouche. The stock is...

    Hellcat OSP plus a Sig Romeo Zero = NICE!

    I recently picked up a Hellcat OSP. I'd hoped to get one from the factory with a Shield SMSc sight already attached but it looked like that wasn't going to happen. One of my LGSs had the Sig Romeo Zero in stock so after confirming it would match the optic screw holes in the gun, I bought it...

    Just for fun, NRA qualification target

    Yesterday at the range I saw a pile of these targets and asked if I could shoot one. I thought I had a full sized pistol in my bag, (a week lapsed since I pulled guns out for this range trip), but turned out I had my HK P2000sk. 3" versus a 5" barrel and a gun I hadn't handled for a year or...

    Newest find; Astra Constable .22lr

    Just today I was able to purchase a pistol I've sought many years; an Astra Constable in .22lr. I carried a Constable .380 back in the '70s and always liked it. I'm not sure exactly what the finish is on this one. They came blued or hard chromed but the chrome was very shiny. This one is a matte...

    Gun Show find; an ANIB Daewoo DP52

    Just had to share my good fortune in spotting this hard to find .22lr Walther PP clone. The Daewoo DP52 was imported by Kimber for only a few years in the '90's. I also own a Walther PP in .22lr so I am able to do a direct comparison. IMHO the Daewoo compares very favorably. The fit and...

    FYI for anyone that frequents or is a member of the new Blue Ridge Arsenal shooting range in Richmond, I've heard that it was closed sometime between Wednesday and Friday. I've seen nothing on their website about it. This info came from a neighbor, a member, who has a LEO relative that...

    AR15 Iron sights for uneven rails available?

    I just bought a low end AR15 that came without sights. The rail is short, with a standard plastic forestock and a low profile gas block that is lower than the receiver rail. It seems every sight I find is made for level rails. Are there iron sights available that address the uneven rail...

    Happy B'day to me, Ruger Mannlicher 10/22

    I've been looking at these nice, full stock Mannlicher 10/22s for a while now, so when I found a nice used one I jumped. It's a 1996 model so it has the old style mag release. It also came with a nice, usable, clear Simmons 22 scope. I gave away my first 10/22 to my son and missed it, so when...

    Older Sig P220 questions

    I recently acquired this Sig P220. I've got a few questions about it. * The box is marked P220-SB. What does SB stand for? * The spring is that multistrand coil. Do the regular single coil springs from Wolff work as well? Is one weight better than another? * The thumbs forward grip did...

    Impulse buy, Beretta Storm Carbine, ???

    Pure impulse. It looks so cute. A Beretta CX4 Storm Carbine, in decent shape, 2 mags, case, cheap red dot scope, sling and 150 rounds of 9mm Federal ammo. Wasn't looking for one, but this one fell in front of me for $450. It sounded too good to pass on. Was my gun buyers intuition...

    Walther PPK/S in .22lr questions

    I've noticed several early Interarms, Walther PPK/S .22lr pistols offered for sale lately. It seems to me that these were fairly hard to find not long ago. I admit I've developed the hots for one. These are blued, made in Germany, come with two mags and sometimes other stuff, (target, brush...

    Iver Johnson M1 carbine... quality??

    I'm looking at a Iver Johnson M1 carbine. It is in 99% condition, wood is good, it's a commemorative with a badge in the stock. I've been hunting for a M1 and the ones I see either more money or in lesser condition. The WWII CMP carbines I come across are going for the same money or more than...
