As life winds down, I am going to sell a couple sort of duplicates in my small collection, and use the proceeds towards firearms I used in my life or had sentimental attachment too. First is a 1905 Fourth change. It is a four inch, 38 Special. It has a factory letter (hardware store in PA)...

For me a post war pre Model 21 M&P is my grail gun. A RM 3 1/2" would be a close second.

Sorry about the phrasing.The 1917's were lend lease in 1940, the stamps were put on for resale into the commercial market.

Alan, that is about as good as my camera and skills with it get. It has a nice coat of Ren wax on it.

I have been thinking on letting one of my 1917's go, to fund another purchase. It is a November 1918 dated gun. It has all of the WWI US appropriate marking. It also has the not as common British WWII lend lease markings (Not made in Britain stamp,extra proofs on cylinder flutes and barrel)...

Up for sale is a absolutely mint Colt Official Police. I t was made in 1965, four inch barrel, 38 Special,beautiful factory nickel, with reproduction checkered service grips. If this one has ever been fired it was very little. I could find no trace of carbon anywhere on the revolver. The...

Dabney, regarding the DW revolver carried by NYPD. Carsten Stroud was a crime reporter turned author. He did time with the NYPD in researching his first novel Close Pursuit. The book was published in the mid 80's, so his research and time with them would have been the early 80's. He goes into a...

Up for sale is my last safe queen I am letting go. It is a Colt Special Combat Officers Model (CCO). These are a special order through the Colt custom shop only. These are very hard to find. My understanding the current wait time is 12 months plus. This one is just like new. I put exactly two...

Last year I picked up a nice S&W 3913. My plan was to make it my daily carry gun. Picked up a set of Houge rosewood grips, spare mags, Wolf Spring kit, etc. I sent the slide off to tool tech for a tritium front sight. USPS either lost or someone stole the slide. I tried to find a replacement...

I shot PPC on the police explorer pistol team back in the 70's. A lot of the old guys used set ups just like this, to game the 2" snub nose side matches.

I totally agree. My 71 vintage Model 49 is currently the only J frame I have.

A few extra holsters that I either don't use or have revolvers for. Your pick $33.00 shipped priority mail. A like new vintage Safariland leather Model 25 (Tom Threepersons style). Black, RH, for a S&W J frame four inch Kit Gun. A Safariland leather laminate reinforced Model 540 speed...

Hey all. Life long shooter and accumulator of fine firearms., Once had a room full of guns, got sick about ten years ago, and sold almost all of them. Slowly building back up. Colt 1911's have always been my favorite, as well as pre 1982 S&W revolvers. Learning to appreciate older Colts as well...
