Thinking about a Dan Wesson Valor in Duty Black, non V-Bob. Anyone own this model? Looked at Brown and at Wilson, but not sure I would could appreciate the difference. Cost is not really a factor. I don't feel a lot of difference from my usgi 1911a1's compared to my Colt Gold Cups or...

I really don't need another cap and ball but this 2nd Dragoon looked like it wanted to come home with me. Early ASM cased set with factory engraving in the white. Civil war production 51 Navy E Whitney .36 pocket revolver, late 1860's S&W Model 2 Army Type 5 in .32RF, 1866+/-...

I'm not a fan of engraved revolvers but this whispered to me "take me home", so I did. ASM 2nd Model Colt Dragoon with case and accouterments, Factory engraving. 4 digit serial number. Appears unfired.

Anyone have a serial number list for the Whitney's? I traded in to a .36 #27751. That should make it a war time but I don't have any Whitney source material. Slight damage to the bottom front of the grip panels, other than that it's a nice old piece.

I have a Speedfeed II and want to change out the hard rubber recoil pad. Has anyone found a replacement that has the odd spacing for the mounting screws?

Anyone watch "Triggers" on the military channel last night? They had part of the show dedicated to Cap and ball using a Paterson. The so called expert loaded the round ball with a patch:banghead: and called it a thirty-eight caliber.:banghead::banghead::banghead: Could only be reloaded by a...

Ran across a deal I could not pass up. Older LE PM, still has the rubber butt pad for what good it does. Terrible cheek weld, brutal recoil and I love it.:evil:

Anyone use a Mezzi rifle case? http://www.mezzi.com/Rifle-Cases/ These appear to be pretty well made and have a low price. Maybe a under $100 case is to good to be true. The 44" double would be used for a AR10 and a 24" Grendel AR. I have been using those cheaper plastic cases that...

Is it just me or is the after market grip selection for the DA six series of revolver on the weak side? I've tried Houge and Pachmayr rubber grips, the Houge "Gripper" has a great feel butt ugly(IMHO). The Houge wood grips felt to large, and the oem to small. I have one set of Ruger "target"...

A earlier post discussing Colt's patient and the intent of the wedge has been interesting, my hat's off to all for keeping it civil:rolleyes: I know a lot members work on their revolvers and want the best fit they can achieve. Let's say we have a replica with excessive barrel gap, so we have...

New addition to the stable, Cimarron Uberti Colt 62 Police Pocket, Giraffe bone grips and a Bill's case. I'm impressed with the quality of this Cimarron, I couldn't find a thing to improve.

I've helped out a friend of my wife's with a few minor things, most recently getting her late fathers fire arms back from her ex. I've been asked to sell these fire arms and I was gifted this one in appreciation. I was truly stunned as I have been wanting to find both these items at...

I have drooled over these Swiss K-31/55 Zfk's but the price, north of 4k has always kept me away. I finally found one that I could justify the cost. Most Military snipers are just a production line rifle that may have exhibited better than average accuracy, not the Swiss. Heavy barrel...

Guns seized in the middle of the night. Could this happen to you. http://oregonfirearms.org/alertspage/Outrage.html

I ran across these two Miroku flintlocks and decided I needed them. They spark, I think that's a good sign. I guess I'll make up some 4f and give them a try. Balls! I may need balls. Anyone have one of these?

Can someone post a link to a good article on black powder volume measurement. I'm looking for something with good detailed information. Thanks. mcb I need it for an upcoming class for a group of experienced shooters, many of them reloaders, but new to black powder. I don't think my answer...

Colt revolving carbine, .44 cap and ball, half fluted cylinder, 12 inch 51 Navy style barrel and loading lever, made by Pietta. I didn't have them take it out of the case cause I didn't want to buy it without thinking it over. Anyone have one or handled one. The carbine stock was more massive...

Found this K-38 Target Masterpiece this weekend. I have two local gun forums and I check the for sale section almost daily. Local ftf, $350. Not a perfect specimen but it does shoot well. I stopped at my local indoor range and fired fifty rounds. It's a real sweetheart, the smoothest...

I'm looking at, thanks to all you trapdoor owner posting photo's, a Springfield Armory M1884 Trapdoor, 45/70, 1886 cartouche. Would $700 be to outrageous of a price, it's a very nice rifle, NRA-Good condition. I don't know a lot about these old girls.

Baby Dragoon that is. I acquired this 2nd gen baby dragoon several months ago, no box, peened notches on the cylinder and a couple of bad dings on the wood. Priced accordingly. I cleaned up the bolt and cyl notches and finally decided to use this pair of faux ivory grips I had on hand. The...
