    43 years ago…..

    Hearing her two little dogs yapping up a storm late one night my MIL, who lived alone, brandished a tiny potmetal semiautomatic Titan .25acp to scare off an intruder who was attempting to to break in her kitchen door.

    What is this groove in the barrel?

    Grandson wants to buy a co-worker’s S&W AR 15, but was wondering what that cut/groove inside the handguard for.

    Are these old ivory grips?

    And are they for an antique S&W? My dad brought them out of Mexico about 60 years ago, and they were not attached to a gun.

    My (New to me) Model 49 -

    I bought my humpback Model 38 Airweight from a Texas LEO twenty years ago. He had carried it as a backup to his Kimber .45. I like the option of the single action feature.

    M&P 15 vs M&P 15 SPORT II

    Yep, I bought one of those “slick side” Sports years ago, but gave it to one of my sons. It was a fun little shooter. Think I’ll Replace it with a Sport II.

    Model 63

    Here is my youngest grandson today shooting a 1981 vintage Model 63 in the Texas Hill Country. His first time shooting a handgun - after a year of BB gun & .22 single shot rifle instruction. I gave that neat little pistol to his older brother (now 15) last year as a b'day gift:

    So I wanted a Colt SAA **Updated with Grashorn's"

    Good job then! Maybe I'll get off my butt and shoot mine. Am itching to shoot this Ruger NV too - 6 months old & still a virgin.... Those Grashorns are beauliful - I have thought about having Patrick make some for the new Vaquero to replace the Altamont "bonded ivory" (epoxy). How long did it take?
