    Different Kind Of Holster

    I'm looking for someone who has tried this holster. I mean no disrespect but if you had tried it you would know what it looked like. The pix is from Hoffner's web sight.

    .38+p vs. 357 mag?

    Plus1 for Buffalo Bore 158gr LSWCHP--1040FPS @379 ft lbs out of a 2" S&W Mod 60 aint too shabby. 357MAG out of a 2" barrel don't do much better than that BUT out of a 3",4" or 6" barrel, the improvement in velocity and energy is huge. My dear old departed Pappy was a down south Deputy Sheriff in...

    Less than impressed with the lightweights

    The answer is: Ruger SP101 .357 Magnum/.38SPL either the 2.25" or 3" barrel, Just the right weight and much more durable than any of the late model S&W snubbies. Regards, JW

    SP101 or Mod 60?

    As an owner of both the SP101 and Mod 60 in .357 Magnum I can say that from MY personal observation you cannot get a better snubby revolver than the Ruger SP 101. In fit, finish and performance the Ruger is, IMHO, overall superior to the Smith. A big plus is that the Ruger is modular (no side...

    In Defense Of Star Handguns

    To correct my original post, if you were to Google "Star Pistol Parts" and not "Star Parts" as indicated in my post, you will find numerous pages that require patience to go through but contrary to what has been stated in this thread, Star parts can be found. Two providers which are most...

    In Defense Of Star Handguns

    Mr Administrator XB---Please take note that I am not the one who brought up the "Submarine" statement, that was NGIB not me. See 9th post down from my original post. As an administrator, I'm asking you to totally delete and remove this thread. I am seriously sorry that I opened up this bag...

    In Defense Of Star Handguns

    Mr Administrator---I 'm not trying to sell my gun in this forum, not at all. My point was to illustrate how many people are misinformed and led to believe that Stars are junk. I'm trying hard to show otherwise and hoped that others would chime in with their opinion of these pistols. I was not...

    In Defense Of Star Handguns

    MAGYAR-- Years back I had a Star with a sticky firing pin. I removed the slide and held the little red tube that comes with a can of WD40 right up to the hole that the firing pin comes through and sprayed WD40 into the pin chamber, at the same time I pushed the pin in and out from the slide end...

    In Defense Of Star Handguns

    I've learned that the worst kind of advice is that which comes unsolicited. If you weren't trying to "submarine" my sale, you certainly didn't help matters any. My dear old Dad taught me many years ago that if you can't say something good--don't say anything at all. Not that I care that much...

    In Defense Of Star Handguns

    NGIB Did you check the web sight that I mentioned in my post? If you had you would have learned that the parts most liable to break are available. PLEASE don't make statements about someones post being not true until you do your homework.:cuss:

    In Defense Of Star Handguns

    It seems to me that the majority of us who own, collect, shoot or just plain admire semi-auto handguns have lumped Star pistols into the POS, Saturday Night Special, El-Cheapo catagory. Nothing could be farther from the truth. As famed gun scribe Stephan A. Camp says, "Star handguns are...

    Rossi Revos ????

    I have the oportunity to purchase a really good looking Rossi polished stainless steel, 6 shot, snubby revo, in .357Magnum for a very attractive price. The piece appears to be like new and shot very little. I know that Rossi and Taurus are very close cousins. I have owned Taurus revos in the...
