I'm trying to find information on what revolvers where the standard issue for the Illinois State Police, prior to their switch to the Smith & Wesson 39 9mm in 1968. Done just about ever google search I could try and came up empty????

Older gentleman tried to sell me what I thought at first glance was a Smith & Wesson early M&P, but when I got it in my hands, I saw "G.A.C. Firearms Manufacturing Co." on top of the 5" barrel. and "Spain" on the frame. He told me it was a .38 special, but I pointed out it said "38 Long" on...

Received this today from them. Help prevent gun violence in America. Join the interfaith community on February 4th by contacting your legislators to urge them to pass legislation to prevent gun violence. http://www.faithscalling.org/

Thank you for your message about the federal assault weapons ban. I appreciate knowing your thoughts about this issue. I am not opposed to the possession of guns. Americans are entitled to own and use guns in a responsible fashion. I stand with the Illinois law enforcement community in...

Just watched Joe Scarborough, who likes to brag about his A+ rating from the NRA, call people who want "those" kinds of rifles, the "survivalist wing of the NRA" and claim they need "separated out" from the rest.

Saw this floating around Facebook today, it's something we all should enjoy doing. (Probably most folks here already are doing this) :)

For the record, as a private company, they are free to do this, I just think it's kind silly. They are banning ads with semi-auto firearms in them. :confused: http://www.multichannel.com/cable-operators/time-warner-cable-bans-some-gun-ads/141294

Something to keep in mind before spending money in Carbondale. http://thesouthern.com/news/local/fritzler-joins-mayors-against-illegal-guns/article_5820fc8a-6138-11e2-9d0d-001a4bcf887a.html Mayor Joel Fritzler City Hall Office - 618-457-3229 City Hall Fax - 618-351-5766 Home -...

I have a Rossi lever action .38sp/.357 that I'm trying to get a ballpark figure on when it was made??? It's markings are: Left side of barrel:"Interarms Alexandria Virginia" and "AMADEO ROSSI S.A." Right side of barrel:".38 SPL-.357 MAG" and "Made In Brazil" The left side of the...

Well, not really a "sheriff's model", but she's a short barreled gal! :) Picked this up yesterday, Uberti "El Patron CMS" 3.5" .45 Colt. Can't wait to get to the range, it is by far the smoothest out-of-the-box action I've ever had on a new Uberti. Not sure what all they do to these...

I have a 1979 Winchester 94 .30-30, that is in probably 98% original condition, accept it's missing the front sight protective hood. Kinda had the thought of replacing it, and looks like I can do it for under $20.00. If it belonged to one of you, would you do it, or just leave it as is...

Hit the show here in town today, HUGE crowd, but man, most dealers were low on ammo and guns both, these are dealers I've know for many years, and the common theme was "we can't get stock from our suppliers", and I noticed very few people were walking around trying to sell guns, it was just buy...

Been searching the web, but am not finding a single shot .20 that comes with a full choke from the factory. Anyone know of one?

I received the Camillus/Les Stroud SK Desert Folder today, some initial thoughts on it are good and bad. Knife itself is OK, 440A liner lock with a very good no slip handle. Blade has some kind of "titanium non-stick" coating (more on that later) and came shaving sharp. Handle is...

Went to see the "Avengers" tonight, and found a sign just like this one that wasn't there a few weeks ago. Found it a little odd, since we don't have CC in Illinois yet.

Picked this up today after getting it at a local gun show Saturday. A dealer that I buy from a lot had this NIB Beretta Stampede in 45 Colt, I ran the serial number on Beretta's website and it was made in 2007. Never had a chance to shoot one, so I'm looking forward to getting out ASAP!

Hit the big 45 last week, so to celebrate I bought a new sixgun in .45 Colt. My first single action was a Hawes Western Marshal, which if I understand what I've read, is this EAA Bounty Hunters "ancestor"? I've never owned an EAA, and wanted to give one a try, so I found some on Gunbroker.com...

Went to a gun & knife show and found a still in the box original USA made Carbon V Cold Steel SRK!
