    Identity and Date of Manufacture of S&W Revolvers

    Hi Outlaw75. "CFU" is not specifically listed. However, "CFT; CFW" is listed as "April 2003." I assume this denotes the range in which your gun would be included. edited to note that the above information is from the 3rd edition of the Supica and Nahas book.

    Identity and Date of Manufacture of S&W Revolvers

    Hi gasmandave...my resource is the 2016 4th edition of the Supica and Nahas Standard S&W book. Unfortunately the serial number records for the .38 Hand Ejector M&P of 1905 4th Change are quite vague. To quote that model description "Serial number range 241704 - 1000000 with 758,296...

    Transformation of my great uncle's 1968 Remington 760 - Before and After

    Very nice! I very recently bought a model 760 and decided to go with a an "old school" peep setup. I don't have pics yet. Small world...I sighted in a model 742 I inherited from grandfather from the very same bench. I assume that's the range within a mile or two of Fish Springs...Looks like...

    How to question re: peep sight

    Again, thanks for the information. Thanks Vern and Mike in Peru for the setup techniques. I was not entirely clear in my original post but I think, despite that, you guys have answered my questions and helped me formulate a plan. I enjoy archery and using an aperture (thanks fmj50 for...

    How to question re: peep sight

    Here comes a dumb question....maybe. What is the "proper" or common use of a peep sight on a rifle? I'm thinking about adding a Williams peep sight to a Remington Model 760. The rifle currently has the front ramp with post installed and a U-notch blade installed above the hand guard. The...

    question about some powder I received...already opened?

    Thanks for all of the feedback, it is appreciated. I had every intention of revisiting this thread sooner...I have been busy with work. I think I need to clarify and I should have been more clear in my original post. The container has a twist off cap attached to a ring that "seals" the jug...

    question about some powder I received...already opened?

    I recently received a backordered 8 pound jug of Unique from PV. The jug arrived with the seal broken...at least it appeared broken. I have never bought an 8 pound jug before. Should I be concerned if the seal was not intact? I'm familiar with the 1 pound and 4 pound containers. The 8...

    Model 27-2 price check

    The 5" presentation case adds $100+ to the deal in my opinion. I would pay $800 for the gun you describe... I really appreciate 5" 27's though.

    Has anyone had to deal with Montana Gold Bullets customer service?

    The tone of those emails you received speaks volumes to me. Thank you for sharing your experience with MGB. I don't blame you one bit for being disappointed in their customer service...or complete lack thereof.

    Too much flitz used on nickel...

    I would like to hear from someone who has actually damaged their nickel finish by hand polishing with flitz. Or seen a gun that was damaged... I'm not talking about dremel polishing but actual hand polishing with flitz and a soft rag that went through the nickel and damaged the finish...

    Plated vs non-plated primers...educate me please.

    eam3clm...that's good to hear. I figured they would be okay but it never hurts to ask. Evan...this particular guy seemed like a nice enough fella but I have to believe he wants rid of those things as fast as possible. He had a bunch too. The thing that kinda bugged me is someone had...

    Plated vs non-plated primers...educate me please.

    Thanks Fred. Should I take any extra precautions or modify the way I seat these primers compared to "normal" primers. I use the Lee hand primer and normally just "giver a good firm squeezin'."

    Plated vs non-plated primers...educate me please.

    Thought I got a good deal at the gun show. 5k cci small pistol primers for $100. Sweet I thought...open the case and find white boxes marked "not for resale" "OEM" "non-plated." The primers look normal to me but the boxes are clearly not your everyday cci boxes. Just wondering what I have...
