I've got one as well recently, is really nice and expect to shoot it tomorrow. Sorry to hijack the thread, but does anyone know how to change out the backstrap?

I'm currently looking at acquiring a CZ SP-01 Phantom, but I was wondering if anyone knew where to look for a threaded barrel that'll fit. Tried Jarvis, but it seems CZ nowhere to be found. Due to the lack of such parts, I wonder if the CZ-75 design not suppressor-friendly.

Well it shoots .357, but I just choose not to tax the frame too much with full loads. Besides, I'm amazed at how well I shoot one-handed when it's .38 WC ;] But thanks for all the help, I've sure learned a tidbit into the intricacies of the SAA.

Ehhh....I don't think a search for said screw will be fruitful at this point. Since it was a 3rd Generation Colt barrel assembly mated with a Pietta frame, perhaps I'll just look around e-gunpart.com. Does it matter if the replacement screw is from a .45 LC or .38 barrel?

Great review, but that thing looks humongous...! Thinking about one, but with such small hands, seems like it's beefy grip makes me reconsider.

I would use the screw, if it didn't fit in so well along with the dirt and pebbles...

Great weather, good people, and lots of bullets that were sent downrange today, nothing could have ruined it except the explosive demise of my SAA clone's ejector assembly. On my tenth round in the Pietta .357/.38 (only shot .38 Wadcutters at this point) the ejector assembly sprang off and now...

I noticed the revolver forum has a sticky regarding how to check if a used handgun is a keeper or a lemon. Should there be a similar post for autoloaders? I'm asking because tomorrow is when I'm going to buy my first Sig P6, and was wondering about any advice about checking them out, since...

Checked with AIM, unfortunately they're sold out T_T Otherwise, if I was to take a refinish, I'm thinking either Duracoat or Cerakote

Now that I've satisfied my need for wheel guns, it's about time I add a reliable, inexpensive auto to my collection. I've got a dealer asking for $315 for a German Sig P6 with two mags. I'm considering the offer, but first a few concerns: Is the price fair? Availability of...

So lucky of me, I've found this already...just need to win it now. http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.asp?Item=106917728

I'm currently looking at a nice 7 1/2 BH in .45 Colt and was wondering if, somewhere down the road, I could snag one of those convertible cylinders that'll allow it to shoot .45 ACP. At the moment I don't reload, so it would definitely soften up my ammunition cost in the long run...unless I...

So I've acquired a Pietta SAA clone, black-powder frame type. Heading off to the range tomorrow, with a report to follow shortly. The concern is that I've got an abundance of .38 Special 158gr SWC +P, clocking roughly around 900 fps, which I usually reserve for my S&W Model 28. My new...

Hmm, that is a valid concern. So far as I know, the owner says he replaced the original 7.5" just for looks and balance. A proper vice and tools were used, as the forcing cone and cylinder gap look correct. Thanks for cleaning up the BP concern Gringo, hopefully I take home a winner ^_^

The weird thing is that the owners has this chambered for .357 Magnum and that he's only put a few .38 Wadcutters through it for function/safety. Obviously, I'm a little skeptical that a BP frame could take full-load magnums, or is that not the case?

So I've come across an unusual piece; a Pietta SAA-clone, black-powder type frame...except the barrel's been replaced with a Post-war Colt 5.5" barrel. Any comments on the quality of this Italian copy or the unusual mating of clone/authentic parts? I feel like picking it up solely for how...

I understand your meaning, but it's just hard to find a balance between making acquaintances and having them mooch off your hard-earned knowledge for little return. When someone makes a serious error, I don't even say anything until the third or fourth offense...I'm definitely not a range...

Unfortunately, I've only moved to Atlanta four years ago, just for college, so acquaintances and friends are in short supply (unless you count my brother, god bless). As I used to have a friendly, established relationship with the local range in Macon (where I came from), range visitors and...

Well...the full-auto has really been the treat of my brother, who's more 'well off' than me, seeing as how he graduated from UGA (Athens has a public machine-gun range) three years ago...still got a year left at Tech, how fun ^_^;; And yes, I'm a poor college student, yet I've probably handled...

For the six years that I've been shooting, starting from the humble air rifle all the way to automatic weapons, I've never really developed any rapport with the local range community, though it's public. Soaking up and spreading gun-lore, teaching young shooters the paramount of safety and...
