Folks, Awhile back I saw an ad, I believe it was here, for a Colt Python 4". This particular revolver was in bad shape externally but the bore and the chambers of the cylinder were excellent. Since the finish was so bad the seller parkerized this particular Python and it actually looked...

FWIW, I've got a Taurus PT1911 that has just gone over 500 rds down the pipe and it has digested every type of HP I've tried. Taurus manufactured 185GR HP, and Federal 230GR HSTs, P45HST2, which mushrooms in a most nasty manner! Never had a problem as far as FTF or FTE with any of them. But...

mayuhm, Would you please e-mail me your address and I'll get a Postal money order out this afternoon or tomorrow morning, okay? Thanks!

C'mon folks, Someone out there has got to have at least one, maybe two of these. I realize Safariland doesn't make them anymore but they did exist. I just need two, if anyone can spare them, please?! I had two for a sweet little model 15 that I used to have while I was in the Corps but...

BTT!

Folks, I'm looking for two Safariland Comp I (small button) speedloaders for a 6-shot K-frame Smith & Wesson. I had two of these back in '80 when I carried a model 66 as a duty weapon. Got rid of them and the model 66 when I joined the Marine Corps (bad decision). Since I've retired I've...

Thanks for all of your input folks. I'll try it a couple more times and see if I get a re-occurance of the problem then go from there. Thanks again!

I just recently purchased the weapon used. Whoever had it before, in my opinion, certainly had it worked. As far as exactly what has been done - no idea. I can tell you this though, just a guesstimate but the single action trigger pull feels like 3lbs or less and double action feels like a...

Folks, the weapon was thoroughly cleaned prior to this firing session. Even made sure to double check the area under the ejector star. I was shooting UMC brand 125gr JSPs. On this box of 50 rds I had previously fired 18 rds with no problem. The first 14 rds of this shooting session were...

Folks, I've got a model 66-2 and today had a really weird occurrance. I was firing 125gr jacketed soft point .357 mag ammo and had a heckuva stoppage. I had finished two cylinder's full, loaded the third cylinder full and started to fire. I got off two rounds and then the revolver just...
