S&W Model 39-2, nickel plated. The handgun was manufactured in 1976. I bought it in 1986 with only 50 rounds fired through it for $265. Most beautiful gun that I ever owned. Even surpassed the two-tone beauty of my Hi-Power Practical.

Go for it! I have a BHP Practical in 40 S&W. I love the two tone, the shape of the gun, and the Pachmayer Signature grips. $ 579.00 retail is a good price. The only gunshop in my area that has them is Gander Mountain for $ 759.00 regular price as I recall. Fortunately, I bought mine used in...

What's nice about the .357 mag is it's versatility. The .357 is my favorite revolver to shoot and I own 3 of them-S&W Mod. 28-2, 4 in., Colt Trooper MKIII, 4 in., and S&W 686-5, in 2 1/2 in. I prefer the heavier frames myself. I tend to favor the Smith L frames the most, but Smith, Colt...

Check out the UMC Remington 100 rd. packs, 115 gr., JHP, for $ 14. 87 + tax at Wally World. The Remington JHP have been getting good reviews. It's definitely hotter than WWB. My personal preference is the 115 gr. over the 147 gr. for more penetration as a defensive round.

I own the Glock 19, 23, and BHP in 40. It's going to boil down to which feels and shoots best and the purpose of use. For me, both feel comfortable in the hand. In bowling pin shoots or plate shoots, I have better times and accuracy with the BHP. The sights for me are better on the BHP, so...

Not necessarily. I buy what I like. All of my revolvers (S&W and Colt) and rifles (USRAC/Winchester, Marlin, Ruger, Colt, and Essential Arms) are American made. All of my semi-auto pistols are foreign born (Browning, CZ, and Glock) though the Glock was assembled in the US. Another thing that...

What, no Ruger P-90? Seriously, out of the 45 acps that I have shot, the best are in no particulat order: Colt Gold Cup, Kimber Classic, Sig P220, CZ-97b, S&W 645, Glock 21, 30, & 36.

Current status: 3-Revolvers 5-Autos Wanting more of both:) :D.

I own and like both. When I bought my mini 14 ranch, I got it new for under $300.00 on sale. Colt ARs were twice that much. I bought my Colt AR-15 National Match for $659.00. Right now, a Mini-14 is right about $500.00. A Bushmaster or other AR clone will be about $750.00. For that price...

As long as they are gun enthusiaists, I don't get too wound up about "magazine or clip", remmies, winnies, or roscoes. What I find more irritating are so called "experts" that have an opinion about everything. If you don't have what they have or what you have isn't as good as what they have...

Guns are a subjective thing. I love Glocks. I own 3 of them. I love other types of handguns too. If a glock isn't for you, then choose something that you like, feels comfortable, and shoots well for you. My problem is there are so many choices and not nearly enough money or space to get...

I like the military, tactical look the most. I enjoy target shooting especially with handguns because it is the most challenging. For handguns just double action .357 mag revolvers and semi-autos in 9mm, 40 S&W, & 45 acp. Rifles-AR-15s, Ruger mini-14, M1 Garand, Marlin .22lr semi-auto for...

Shotguns Most painful to shoot were the single shot Stevens and H&Rs. Both kicked like mules and made my teeth rattle. The most painful round out of my Mossberg 500 was a 3in. turkey load that a so called "friend" said go ahead and shoot it. I did not thinking anything about it. It hurt...

Another Robert Morris type. After the holidays, I'll call my shrink and make an appointment. Yeah, right.

Owned 2-686s. First one was a 686 no dash, 8 3/8 in. barrel. The high polish finish and trigger were perfect. The second is a 686-5, 2 1/2 in. barrel. The finish wasn't nearly as nice as the first. The gun looked like it had machine oil baked into the stainless steel, but with Flitz and...

If all regulations and taxes were lifted on the firearm and civilians could purchase them for the same price which law enforcement agencies purchase them for rather than paying $ 15,000.00 per gun, then heck ya

Go to the modern revolvers manual on the site. It is 36 pages long. Read pages 28-30. It will have the contact info that I think you are looking for.

You should be able to have a gunsmith swap barrels with ease. Contact S&W or an authorized S&W gunsmith. I had a 686, 8 3/8 in barrel that I wanted shorter. Decided it was easier to sell the gun to my brother and buy a 2 1/2 in snub 686. Check out http://www.smith-wesson.com. It should help...
