Admin, I wasn't sure where to post, please move if in wrong area. A friend who has a small LGS has asked for my help, as he knows I have previously worked at an FFL and did the A&D books. He currently uses the old paper bound books. He wants to switch over to one of the computerized system and...

I'm at work and my SCSW is at home. Can someone please look up a S/N for me? 4399xx It's a 4" nickel M&P .38 Special. Thanks

I recently picked up a used (like new) CZ 527 Carbine in 7.62x39. it has a very nice Trijicon 3-9x40 with illuminated reticle. It seems like too much scope for the rifle. I paid less for the whole package than either the rifle or scope should have cost alone. I'm thinking a smaller, lighter...

The 4" S&W .38/.357 Service Revolver. Clockwise from top left 10-8, 28-2, 581, 686, 10-5, 15-2, 19-4, 19-3, 66-2 I can only confirm that the 581 & the 10-5 ever served as LE guns. I can confirm that neither 19 served. I would not be surprised if the 28-2 & the 686 served due to finish wear when...

We had a BSA single shot falling block come into the shop over the weekend. It's marked .220 Long Rifle.Can't seem to find anything on the caliber. Is this the same as .22 Long Rifle? Or is it some obsolete caliber? It appears to be very similar to .22 LR, if it's not the same. Beautiful wood...

I'm thinking a 7 shot GP100 9mm with moon clip, fix sight Match Champion. 4" . Honestly I'd be happy with any 4" GP100 9MM. The above is the ideal. What are your thoughts on this?

So I was lucky enough to get to work the Colorado Gun Collector's Association Show this past weekend. Not your typical gun show. No current production guns allowed. So my goal was to find myself a good shooter grade pre mim, 4" .357 L frame. I succeeded. 581 no dash M stamp. The frame is marked...

I'm not normally interested in Taurus products. Lets just say I've had more than one bad experience. When it comes to revolvers, I'm a S&W guy with an occasional Colt or Ruger dalliance. This one has me interested though. Never seen anything similar. It's a NIB Taurus M455TI 4". Roughly K frame...

So I'm picking up a used Ruger Gunsite Scout rifle in .308. The scope currently mounted is a Burris, but not a Scout Scope, yet mounted on the forward rail. It's so far back, and lowlthat it interferes with ejection. In any event, I'm looking at Scout Scopes. I think I like the Leupold FX II...

Clockwise from top left, 66-2 4", 624 4", 624 3", 66-1 2.5"

With my aging eyes, the standard buckhorn sights on most lever action rifles no longer work that well for me. I'm considering getting the Winged Skinner sights for my Marlin 336 .30-30 and the barrel mounted rear for my Henry Big Boy Steel Carbine .357. What do you all think of these options...

Can someone tell me if this ammo is 7.62x39, 7.62x54R or some other Soviet 7.62 ammo? Thanks

Does anyone know if the new Colt Cobra uses the same grip frame as the post 66 Cobra?

First, I'm not here to debate the usefulness, safety, practice drills etc of shoulder rigs. I have used them in the past, and they work for me. I wouldn't want one as my only carry option, but in certain circumstances, they are hard to beat. Also a properly holstered handgun is not pointed at...

I've been using HKS speedloaders for decades. I recently stumbled into 5 Star's website. www.5starfirearms.com Does anyone have experience with these? They appear to be a high quality version of of the HKS. Is this accurate? Are they worth the difference in price? I know some of you are die...

So yesterday I stopped by my LGS. While looking around a spot a pair of 2nd issue, 3" Colt Detective Specials. First one is nickel, with the correct grips and probably 97% or so. Fired, but not much. no box or papers. The second one is blue, with 3rd issue grips + a set of Pachmeyers. It's...

Finally did it. Ordered a Series 70 reproduction. Should be at my FFL on Friday. Can't wait. :neener:

I came across a Colt DS. Asking price is $800. It's NIB with all papers etc. Mid 90's production, one of the last ones. Unfired. No turn ring. The blue isn't quite as shiny as the older ones, but it is in perfect shape. I haven't seen one of these in so many years, I have no idea what a fair...

I've just taken the first step in a project that I have been thinking about for around 15 years. It will also be a while before the next step though, if I go through with it. Financial reasons mainly. I have a S&W M625-3 .45 ACP 3" that I bought new sometime around 1993 or so. It's a great gun...
