    Hodgdon Titegroup Problem!

    Well, you never know what you will learn in a gun forum! Been loading Titegroup for years and it has served me without complaint but I am somewhat anal in my endeavors at the loading bench and always empty my Lyman powder measure back into the container when done. Yes you have to be careful not...

    The 'unofficial' 58 Club

    Right on BigBill! If you handloaders have not had a chance to check out Montana Bullet Works .41cal lead you should. Good quality hard cast that can be driven to excellent velocities, plus Dave Jennings is a real "stand up guy" that is honest with great value. (No, I do not work for him but am...

    Given your guns to your kids...

    Last summer I gave my son a 638 as a gift as I already had another one, he grinned from ear to ear and asked me how I knew that he and his wife wanted to get their CC permits. When she joined him later at the house he showed her the NIB 38 and she giggled and thanked me as well. My boy is an...

    Front Sight

    Get some of her red finger nail polish and some rubbing alcohol. Use the alcohol with a Q-tip and clean the front sight completely, allow to air dry, now apply the nail polish to the ramp side of the front sight and allow to dry. You will see an improvement the next time she goes to shoot at the...

    Looking for a .22

    Gee, considered a 22A? I have one and so do 2 of my close friends and we love them. They are reliable and shoot wonderfully with a grip angle that reminds me of a Hi Standard. I bought the longer 7" barrel and mounted a red dot sight on it and it is an accurate running bunny combo. For plinking...

    Don't nobody complain about being alone on New's Year!

    Yep, I will be human-alone but with 3 cats 4 parrots, 3 dogs, 3 Robo Hamsters and (2 horses not in the house!) Settling in visiting my favorite forums with a glass of Merlot wine, may go to bed at 9p instead of 8:30p because I do not have to get up at 4:30a tomorrow...Kinda daring isn't it...

    Can we do this?

    Have been using the copper plated Rainier brand in 9mm/.40/.45 for years now, their suggestion is to follow the loadings as if they were unplated lead. Have never had a failure with the 1000's I have reloaded. jb

    Model 25-5

    Thanks folks. Knew I could have gotten more for this example but I am so busy that I cannot afford the time nor effort right now. The Model 58 replaces the Model 57 I was so stupid to sell years ago...When do we ever learn...DO NOT SELL YOUR COLLECTIONS????? jb

    Model 25-5

    It sold to a local collector who appreciates S&W pinned guns. $600 total take, yep could have done better but this fella loves P&R guns. Could I have gotten more for it...well yes, but I wanted to keep it local and pass it along to someone who knows what he scored...such is life, I have a...
