    Vintage 1956 Pre-24 how rare is a 5" barrel ?

    Whether original or not, a 5" 24 or pre 24 would, to me, be the ultimate sixgun. I have two 24-3s in 4", and have toyed with the idea of having a 6.5" one cut to 5".

    Reloading the 357

    A friend asked me to load 500 rounds of .44-40 for him several years ago. He supplied the components, and TiteGroup is what he brought me. I found it didn't meter particularly well, but I got his ammo loaded. I doubt he ever shot any of it. There was a good bit of Titegroup left over and he told...

    Holy Molly, a 28-2 With Cokes

    I didn't do quite that good but did get a 3.5" 5-screw .357 recently for $500 that was wearing a pair of non-relieved targets. Gun has some honest wear but timing and function are perfect. I was pleased.

    Saw a 34-1 2” at Local Shop Today

    I had a 2" 34 one time. Neat little gun but i couldn't hit the side of the house with it. Rear sight dialed all the way down it still shot high.

    Prayers needed for special needs Granddaughter

    Prayers from my corner of Alabama. May the God of all comfort bless Emma with his peace, comfort, and tenderest care, and may he use the surgeon's skills to give her a better quality of life. May all of your family know and feel his presence and power. In the holy name of Jesus, Amen.

    An Absolute Idiot

    I'm pretty much to the point that nothing surprises me anymore - especially in the "how stupid can people get" department. Someone said "Quit asking 'how stupid can people get?' - they're taking it as a personal challenge."

    Traditional knives…

    When I was a kid about 12-13 yrs old, I had a friend whose dad made pocketknives. I'm still pretty amazed by that skill. He had a big metal box full of them from pretty normal looking to some wild designs. He would let us get the box out and dig around in it time to time.

    Aluminum Frame / Steel Slide

    I have used Lubriplate (white lithium) on the slide rails on all my autopistols for many years. Never had any issues with wear or galling.

    Lil’ Slugger

    I'm an Ithaca 37 fan. This one stays at the ready, I have its twin in the safe, because, you know, two is one and one is none, or something like that. That, or I just like Ithaca 37s.

    Tales From the East Texas Outback

    I served as a Reserve Deputy for about a year in the late 70s. Had some interesting experiences, including being the first there at a murder scene a couple of times. Thought about going full time but there was a big walkout and squabble going on between the deputies and the county commission at...
