I have been seeing this on the internet for a few months. They don't list a price but the revolver looks really good. It's a single action with a longer cylinder with two latch points per position. They show two models. One has a plain barrel and the other has a birdcage flash hider. I like the...

With the advent of a more gun friendly majority in state politics there have been two important changes for us here. The law concerning "brandishing" a weapon did state that it was illegal to display a weapon if one felt threatened. Now a weapon may be displayed or "brandished" in order to let...

I recently looked over the TAC 2 quick change barrel kit for AR-15s and bought one and had it installed on my Bushmaster XM-15E2. Taken down the carbine resides in a standard business style briefcase along with two coupled 30 rd mags and an optics system of your choice, (red dot, laser, etc.)...

I saw another thread about Sig recalls. I bought a late edition P238 last week and have nothing but high marks for it. In outward appearance it reminds me of my Colt Pocket-Lite.380. The finish is darned good and the little rascal carries well and shoots better than I can. I am well impressed...

Can anyone advise on field stripping one of these?

I finally found one of the ugly little revolvers and snapped it up. Does anyone have experince with them. I am curious to know what the frame is made of...I have had Scandium framed Smiths, but they usually have the little atom on the side plate. I have seen the new Smiths in L and N frames and...

I have recently bought 2 Dan Wesson .44mags. One has a set of 4 barrels and a barrel nut wrench...the other has nothing. I seem to recall the barrel/ cylinder gaps as being .006" on a DW .357 I once owned. Is that spec right for the .44 mags also? Thanks; :what:

Can anyone point me at a good gunsmith around southern New Hampshire? Concord/ Bow/ area. I had dealt with a superb 'smith here but have lost track og=f him and don't know where he might be. Regards Alan:confused:

I found a used Taurus M-450 at the shop yesterday and after looking it over I decided it might fit an empty spot in the safe. As a way of life I always have ammo, holsters, speed loaders or spare magazines for every handgun I own...Just in case. I looked for HKS loaders for this Taurus and...

Can anyone point me in the right direction to locate IDPA rules and the ins and outs thereof? My #1 shooting buddy has joined the Marines and he and I won't have many chances to shoot. I have heard a bit about IDPA and it sounds like it's right up my alley. I googled IDPA and found a page with...

I had been chasing my tail trying to find those grip screws after I forgot to Loctite them and lost one at the range. Wanted to thank everyone who sent suggestions and ideas. Thanks to a member I located them at Brownells and wanted to share the stock number in case anyone ever needs them...

While I was prowling around looking for good deals at my fav-o-rite money hole today I spotted, of all things bright and beautiful, a 4" N-frame Smith in .44 S&W Spl. Nestled in all the other black, blue, stainless...( 40 shades of it)...and plastic was a beautiful factory nickel .44SPL N frame...

I reckon I'm the only dummy who can't find grip screws for and AMT Backup...but have any of you any ideas what the dimensions/specs of the grip screws are? I have been throiugh every bin in my Pachmayer gun screws save your life tool kit and am running dry. I don't know of many gunsmiths and the...

I like Kahrs...they fit my needs well...But! (Heck I just like guns). While I carry one, an MK9, (CCW) in 9 mike-mike I'd rather have a .45. Has anyone had experiences, good or bad, with their polymer framed .45ACP? [email protected] or ayates @officermail.com . Thanks; Alan

I have a soft spot for some of the older guns, and recently in a gun store spotted what I thought was a 1917 Smith. I looked it over and bought it after realizing that it is what I believe to be a Hand Ejector , Model 2 , which is stamped with British proof marks and ".455" on the barrel...

I pride myself on being open minded. I've always liked 1911's. My first in the 70s was a Remington Rand. Until Colt lost all pride I had Colts. Now I find I have a Kimber Classic Custom, A Para C-7.45 LDA, A Kimber BP -10II, A Remington Rand. Of all the problems I have noticed the strangest is...

I need some advice if anyone has dealt with a S&W, seems like a M-1917, stamped .455 Eley. The gentleman I bought it from said it had been converted to .45 LC. It's a beautiful old gun, with a Micro rear sight and it seems to have been cared for over its life. Is it a safe shooter? Also; it's...

I found a nice old S&W in the store today. Looks like, and I suppose it is, an old S&W M-1917, but chambered for .455 Eley. The gentleman I got it from told me it had been reworked to take .45LC rounds. Of course it's a 5-screw, and the screw at the top of the side plate, (Closest to the rear...

Several years back I saw holsters advertised which were for "small of the back" wear. They didn't look like the usual ones seen nowadays...for a right hander the butt was facing right. I think the nomenclature on the holster was "The MOB Twist". They were made by a gentleman named Sam Andrews...

I have listened to a friend and finally bought a Kimber. It is everything I have ever heard about them as far as reliability and accuracy are concerned. I have emailed Kimber 4 times asking about the availability of magazines, either 10 round or, preferably, high capacity. I finally got an...
