The problems exist at all major manufacturers. Last summer I bought a Taurus 992 convertible that I waited 5 months for. It's so loose that it rattles, and came with a pitted bore. I have not been able to work up enough courge to send it back, I have read too many horror storys. Dumb thing...

The only shootings they witnessed were on the video game they were playing......

With the current buying hysteria no self respecting gunshop should be selling to non members. This is a great chance to sign up new members.

I think the NCAA smells like big business.Whew!!! Go Pink and Black!!!

I would like to hear a few opinions about flame cutting on the topstrap. Is this unavoidable, or is it a sign of abuse from firing too hot loads?? I have often seen it on .357's but not on .38's. Is this a problem for all calibers?? Please commence with the free education......... Thanks guys

I would agree that the 39-2 is a very pleasant shooter. I have had mine for over 15 years and it is the pistol that I shoot the best, it is as if it was tailor made for my hands. I have never had a malfunction. Mine likes umc fmj ball the best. very tight groups. Curiosly, my gun leaves 2 flat...

I have had good results with Lutien, I get it at wal-mart. Get the large size pills. I can tell the difference when I take it, My retinal irregularities vanish. Good luck!!

Hi Guys, A good friend of mine has recently aquired an early hand ejector, It is a M&P .38 special in nickel with a 6" barrel, Built around 1919 or 1920. It was his great grandfathers pistol, so it is special to him. The downside is it has a timing issue and was neglected or misunderstood for...

I would like to hear your opinions on refinishing, specifically, when does it NOT hurt resale/gun value. Also, can it even be done without being obvious?? Thanks guys. Doug

So, this is what my future looks like?? I can live with that..... Seriously-- nice collection! REALLY Nice!! Doug

Thanks for the grading info. It is pretty much as I suspected, and makes good common sense. For the most part, collector grade guns are usually out of my price range, not that I would not love one, but I really do like shooting my guns and enjoy the process of revealing what is really under the...

I use Graf & sons out of new york. They seem reasonable, shipping is included in the price and they are quick. The website is easy. MY maillady leaves the package in my mailbox...ammo is always stickered orm-d. I have never needed to sign for ammo.... Doug

Hey I got it done! Thanks for the help with the pics! They show the rust on the cylinder (only what is shown, not all the way around it) and the backstrap. How does this relate to grading the condition?? I could use a little help understanding how these are graded and priced. Thanks in...
