    Bond Arms

    I originally bought mine for protection against snakes sneaking up on me while shooting prairie dogs. It is kinda hard to aim a scoped rifle at a snake thats 2 feet away in grass that’s 18-20” tall while sitting on a 4 wheeler. If they had made the Judge or Governor back then I probably would...

    S&W 442 Owners

    I would go for it and never look back. I carried a 642 for a few years, and the weight difference makes it so much easier to carry. Yes there is a little difference in recoil, but it isn’t bad with that load. I have carried and shot the .357 version of that load in my 340 for the past 5 or 6...

    .455 webly reloading tips

    I was really hoping you would get some good replies, but evidently that might not happen. I picked up a Webley Mark I last year that has a shaved cylinder. If you wind up with a Webley revolver, I suggest slugging the barrel and measuring the cylinder throats and forcing cone. They are not all...

    Movie Gun Question

    I forgot about this one. I have always thought of this as one of the best "1911" movies. It makes me want a double shoulder holster for my 1927 Argentine .45 and my Argentine Service Model Ace. Whoever decided to show Bruce Willis cleaning and loading a few dozen magazines before the big...

    Movie Gun Question

    Thanks for the responses. After talking to some of the guys at work, I know I am not alone. "Marlin lever action for Bambi." I almost spit iced tea out of my nose when I read this. To ease the minds of some people that can't imagine doing this sort of thing... 1. I can't say that I ever...

    Movie Gun Question

    Okay, I am going to be honest, and I hope you will, too. You will receive no judgment from me. How many of you carry a certain gun if you go to watch a movie or have a certain gun sitting out if you watch something at the house based off what the show or movie is? Examples: The wife and I...

    Identity and Date of Manufacture of S&W Revolvers

    a) 38 Special b) 4" c) square butt d) 6 shot e) fixed, half round front sight f) S734xx g) pre-model numbers I know it is a long action 38/44 Heavy Duty. I believe it was made between 1946 to somewhere in the early 50's. I was wondering more precisely what year it was made. I also was...

    Bond Arms Hot Loads?

    They did used to make 44 mag barrels; I have personally seen them. I also remember when they discontinued them. I am not sure if it is true or not, but I heard they dropped the 44 mag due to too many recoil complaints (wrist pain, etc.) I have shot PMC silver 45 LC in my Bond arms. It is +P...

    Anybody like .32acp just for fun?

    I have had several, a Colt pocket, Beretta Tomcat, Walther PP, and Kel-tec P-32. All were good guns; however only the PP has remained with me. The Walther PP is extremely accurate compared to the others, and it is just a sleek, sexy design of a pistol.

    Any love for the Ruger Bearcat?

    I got an older aluminum framed one when my dad died a few years ago, and I absolutely love it. It is quite a bit more accurate than my 3-screw single six. I also like the Bearcat because I have always prefered 1858 Remington to SAA styling. I still kick myself for buying a S&W Model 19 2...

    Wanting A new Ruger Blackhawk 45 or 44?

    I recomed, like others, the 45 convertable stainless bisley. The grip on the Bisley is much, much more cofortable to shoot than the regular BH grip with the really hot loads. One of my 3 Ruger SA 45's is the blued 7 1/2" Bisley, and I love it. I have always disliked the 5 1/2" more than any...

    Is your state ok hunting with a silencer?

    Unfortunately, no they are not legal in Oklahoma for hunting. I think they should be legal. Since I moved here to OK 8 years ago, I have heard lots and lots of stories about people poaching deer, and I know a lot of people around here that own suppressors. I have never once heard of anyone...

    What to do with 2 Arisakas?

    , Hornady 129gr SST or 140 gr SP in 6.5x50= $26-27 per box at Graf and Son's. Some other brand was only $19. http://www.grafs.com/retail/catalog/category/categoryId/164 If that is an arm and 2 legs, I'd hate to see what 45-70 costs next time I buy some.:eek:

    Which Light Weight Revolver Would You Choose Poll?

    I couldn't ever win a beauty contest with it, but I'd have to say Ruger LCR with CT laser grips. The S&W with the Tyler's T and the Elk grips is a VERY nice looking gun, by the way.

    S&W Airlite or Ruger LCP

    LCR. I have owned and still do own lot of S&W's, but the LCR is the best pocket snub I've ever had.

    Lefthanded double action

    I'm a lefty, but I just shoot a pistol right handed. I know that means wrong handed to you, though. Check out Charter Arms, they are making some left handed DA revolvers that are mirror images or their "regular" ones.

    Your Guns That Didn't Work

    Kimber Ultra Carry II...Stovepipe, stovepipe, stovepipe. :banghead: Never once fired a complete magazine full without a fialure of some kind.:cuss: I have another Kimber, a Custom Stainless (Series I), that is one of the most accurate and reliable guns I have ever owned.

    Picked up a Don Hume IWB holster for my Kahr

    Don Hume is one of the best deals around. They'll even do some options that they don't mention in their catalog, if you call them.

    An Afternoon with Tommy

    Must be nice:(, I've always wanted one. I saw a Wednesday night show on the Outdoor Channel about a month or so ago where they covered a Zoot Suit Shoot. It looked awesome. Costumes, Tommy Guns, 1911s...what more do you need:D
