    Modern 357 magnum rounds in a 1992 mod 19-6

    Hi guys! Just bought a mod 19-6 from 1992. Read somewhere that using modern powerful rounds could crack the forcing cone. What brand /type of 357 rounds are safe in this gun. Hope this distinguished forum can help. Terje A Gogstad Norway

    Model 41 problem

    Hi! My son just bought a used '41 in a really nice shape, but he's unable to get the barrel off. He's followed the instructions in the manual, but the barrel is still stuck. Any ideas as to what can be the problem? Almarz

    Victory data base

    Thank you for the information. And - yes,it's matching numbers all the way round. I found a web site that sells what they claimed to be NOS lanyard rings and original cleaning sets (in original boxes), so I ordered one of each. I posted more pictures on the "Early hand ejector" pages a couple of...

    New lucky find

    When you put it like this, I wouldn't dream of keeping it. I'll send it to you by putting it in a bottle together with your address. Just take a stroll by the beach a couple of months from now and it'll be there. But, come to think of it, unless you're a lot older than me,(I'm 63) I doubt your...

    New lucky find

    Hi Guys! Went to visit an old friend today and after a cup of coffee and a nice chat, he ( and his wife) asked me if I could help them by getting rid of an old revolver and some ammo that had been lying around the house since the mid 60s. Since I'm a really helpful guy, I couldn't refuse this...

    Lucky find

    There are very few commercial ranges in Norway. Almost all of them are owned by clubs. There are a few commercial ranges in Oslo, but apart from them.... It's relatively easy to become a member of a club, as long as you've got a clean sheet with the law. The hand gun clubs are usually checking...

    Lucky find

    The Norwegian army uses Glock 17s (P80s), MP5, MP7, HK417 and the Barrett M82. I've got a Tanfoglio Witness Match 9mm (beautiful gun - went through all he had in the shop to find the one with the best trigger), I also have a Ruger Mk III and the two S&Ws on the picture. I've got quite a few...

    Lucky find

    To be a European country, Norway has relatively liberal gun laws. But - as in most other European countries, gun ownership is a privilege, not a constitutional right. You have to register all guns, and to apply each time you want to buy another. But - we have somewhere between 1,5 and 2 million...

    Lucky find

    It's still a long, cold winter between now and summertime - but yes, I'm looking forward to start the outdoor shooting season again. Our indoor shooting range is nice enough, but there's nothing like our "in the woods" field shooting. And yes! I bought dies for 38 spc yesterday. I've been...

    I know the stocks are switched. These are my shooting guns and switching them made it so much easier to eject the empties from the K38.

    Lucky find

    I was looking for a S&W .357, for what we Norwegians call field shooting. A competition with (usually) 10 different target groups in the field (forest). In a local ad, I found a guy wanting to sell what he called a "Smith & Wesson K 38 special CTG". When I had a look at the revolver it was a K38...
