    WTS 5-screw 1917 M&P .38**final price drop**

    For sale is my 1917 M&P .38 S&W 5-screw version. Gun is 100% original with all matching numbers including the grip stencil. Most of the bluing is gone but there is NO rust or corrosion anywhere and this gun appears to have been shot very little. Asking price for this gun is $225 and I will...

    S&W introduces new SD40 and SD9 pistols

    Well I did get to spend a good deal of time examining these 2 new models in person today at the S&W booth at the NRA Conv. in Charlotte. After carefully going over these 2 guns I can honestly say that it is a very marginal upgrade over the current Sigma. There is no gritty feeling with the...

    S&W introduces new SD40 and SD9 pistols

    It may be an upgrade for some but I don't see where this new model offers me anything significant over my existing SW40VE. I already have S&W installed night sights, factory trigger job brought my trigger pull to around 7lbs already, don't use a light so the rail doesn't matter to me and add in...

    Sights and amazement

    I sent my SW40Ve in for service over a year ago, a loose front sight was the issue. S&W installed a free set of the green Trijicon night sights on mine for my trouble. But before that I was like you, wondering where all the aftermarket goodies were.

    .40 S&W ammo

    I use the new Critical Defense from Hornady in .40 S&W. It is 165gr and has been much easier to get a better follow up shot with. My previous carry round for my Sigma was Speer Gold Dot's in 180gr. They performed great but had a sharper recoil than the new Hornadys, plus the muzzle flash is...

    1st range trip with 5 screw M&P

    I am certainly going to do a ton of research and be on the lookout for more of the older revolvers now. I truly have the bug, just like my first Mosin led to over 150 C&R guns in the last few years. My wife and I carried and shot other guns today such as an XD45 Tactical, Sigma .40, Taurus 709...

    1st range trip with 5 screw M&P

    Finally had some free time to try out our recently acquired 1918 M&P today. While I am only used to shooting Rossi and Nagant revolvers, I am now hooked and thoroughly impressed with the quality of old S&W wheel guns. The trigger, both SA and DA, was the smoothest that I have ever felt and the...

    First outing with new Sigma

    Glad you liked it, I have the .40 Sigma and have loved every detail about it. If people think that the Sigma has a heavy trigger then they should try the double action pull on a Russian M1895 Nagant revolver!
