Looking at the crappy cell phone pics I'm getting it looks like it very well could be an 8 at the beginning of the SN (confirmed an 8 after downloading to computer). I'll see if I can go see it in person and report on the condition for you. However based on the story I was getting, I don't...

So now the question is, is there any monetary value in the firearm? Also, thanks for the education, I know next to nothing about revolvers and even less about old revolvers.

it is a S 321684.

I'll see if I can talk him into removing the stocks to get the serial number.

One of the guys I work with has a S&W that I volunteered to get info on for him and I'm hoping you all can help me out. The pictures aren't great, so you'll have to bare with me. It is stamped with 38 S&W Special CTG on one side of the barrel. The other side says Smith and Wesson...

It's getting Squachy in here! I love the show Finding Bigfoot. Pretty much because I think they're crazy going out in the woods and yelling saying they're doing 'sasquach calls'.

That's a tough problem. Try to pay attention to which way the fob is facing when you place it in your pocket. I have found if it is facing outward, i'm more likely to push buttons. So now I make an effort to place my keys in my pocket with the buttons facing my leg.

Nice collection!

Thanks for your help! I was intending on sending it, but wanted to see if it was a known issue with the pk 380.

Nope, it's a PK 380 I thought it might have been the rounds so I tried 3 different brands; Winchester, Remington and blazer. They all produced the same symptoms. It happens during normal operations. I load a full magazine into the gun, pull back the slide and release it as normal letting...

I was actually surprised the first time I shot my 500; I was expecting a lot more recoil. although it could be because it fits my hand really well. I have the 500 with the 8 3/8" barrel and was shooting 350 gr rounds. It goes back more into your hand than it goes up. Overall it's a fun gun...

I don't know if this is the right place for this, but I am having a malfunction with my Walther PK 380. Here's the problem: While shooting, it will fire a couple of rounds, chamber the next, I'll squeeze the trigger again and it does nothing. The first few times it happened, I ejected the...

Looks like a pretty sweet rifle you picked up. You shoot it yet?

Hornady seems to be a popular brand, but most retailers I have been to are wanting $60+ for a box of 20 rounds. Thanks guys, I figured it wouldn't be an issue. The rounds I have are very similar to a shotgun slug and that's what I've used in the past.

I'll be in Iowa, so they're pretty large deer... It's not that extreme when you think about some of the rifles and muzzle loaders out there. I've got some 350gr and some 400gr lead rounds. Thanks for the input!
