    I’ve got to stay out of the shops.

    Yesterday my buddy and I hit a local show. A show I never cared for. Too much jewelry, sausage, cheese, hats, shirts etc. I go to a gun show to see guns, ammo, reloading stuff. But I digress. We take our first orbit around and one dealer had a bunch of nice desirable revolvers. Old school, yeah...

    Beretta PX4 .40

    In a temporary act of stupidity (yeah,right!) I sold off my 2 .40 cal. pistols, while I have a couple thousand rounds of .40 ammunition. I still have a Beretta CX4 carbine in .40, but am more into handguns than long guns. So my quest for a nice .40 began. LGS had a M&P that was probably a police...

    Charter Arms 9mm Pitbull

    Popped into the LGS while doing some errands today and spotted a 9mm Pitbull. Looks unfired to me, but won’t stay that way much longer;). Only asking $250 plus tax etc. The bad part was I didn’t have my wallet or any cash. They were good enough to hold it and a Beretta .40 PX4 for me till...

    Swapping out Taurus Judge innards.

    I have a factory DAO Judge and want to covert it over to DA. I’ve ordered the spurred hammer and trigger but am wondering how much fitting is required? The parts were sold together so I assume they are from the same gun. I know that MIM parts are supposed to me made to closer tolerances to...

    A guy has a 3” swing out cylinder .32 long, round butt, with factory diamond stocks serial #527xxx for sale. I am unsure if it’s an I or J frame and forgot to look for a model number, if any. Looks to have about 85% bluing left. $325. Anyone tell me the shipment date or any other info? I’d ask...

    Howard Arms(Meriden) revolver help please

    I’ve got an old .32 topbreak revolver by Howard(Meriden)Arms. From my research it is not an IJ. I am trying to get it functional. The cylinder doesn’t carry up to line up with the barrel, and the cylinder spins in either direction so I took it apart to see what was the is problem. I think there...

    Blast SS top strap?

    I bought a nice Smith Mod 64 that has a scarred up top strap. I am thinking about sandblasting the top strap and barrel rib only so they match. I don't have a blast cabinet and will use a spot blaster with fine sand and lower pressure. The area I am doing is maybe 3/4"X7" all told. Any else done...

    Marlin 336 with Williams FP

    Does anyone a pic of a Marlin 336 with the Williams FP sight that uses the 2 rear scope mount holes? My 336 isn't tapped for the side mount screws, so it looks like thats the easiest way to go, but I don't want to uglify my rifle. Thanks

    Browning A5, gotta stay out of the gun shop!

    I've been really good lately, staying out of the gun shops, until tonight. Stopped into the local Gander Mtn store to "look around". Spotted a Browning A5 "Light Twelve" made in Belgium. The serial number dates it to 1959. I think the barrel is 28" plain. I didn't measure, I was too excited to...

    Didn't notice, until.......................

    I just picked up a S&W Mod.15-4 4" that was in like new shape. I'd been looking for a "cherry" Mod 14 but with my shooting abilities the extra 2" of barrel isn't going to make much difference. The guy at the shop told me after I bought it, that it was unfired until he took it in trade, but being...

    Missing front sight on a Trapdoor

    I'm am going to buy an 1873 Springfield "Trapdoor" that has been cut down to carbine length. Along with the end of the barrel went the front sight. Just to make the rifle functional again and to make it look "right" I'd like to replace the sight. Dixie lists a front sight but I am not sure how...
