    Model 25 Decision?

    I had a 625 MG in .45 Colt that I would still have if not for the dam ports in the barrel. Wish I could find one again without the ports.

    Repeal the NFA - petition at WhiteHouse.gov

    since this was the beginning of the vast nest of bad gun laws we live with today, repealing it is the right way to start getting it right. https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/repeal-nfa

    Tennesseans - Heads-Up!

    It is indeed posturing because though there are some signs if you don't look too deep that TN has good laws, we also have a ton of bad ones. Surely not as bad as a lot of places and I DAMN Sure ain't taking the Brady Campaign's word on anything. The point is, yes, we're better than a lot of...

    Which .357 for hard use?

    Why not the original .357 Magnum?

    help me buy a .44 special

    I've been wanting to nail down a few specifics about S&W .44 Specials anyway, this seems like a useful place to try work this out... These statements seem to be true from what I've gathered but please correct me if I'm wrong! Not being Magnum or Rimfire, they'd have never been recessed. The...

    M-686 Pics, please

    Can't make a mistake with that model. If you just hate it (you won't) there's hardly a better introduction to centerfire handguns for the family and friends... bedside companion... truck gun... Everybody needs a medium frame .357. You don't need psyching for that. It's not like it's an...

    Would you load a Scandium J-Frame with .357 Magnum rounds??

    If I could manage it at the range without too much effort, I would. I got rid of a Kel-Tec P40 because the effort to keep a grip on it, allowing it to cycle, was something I didn't trust myself to do in a stressful situation. A revolver shouldn't fail to function if I 'limp wrist' it but...

    Model 66 - 6 Mountain Gun

    I can't even think of a 66 that would RESEMBLE a Mountain Gun... tapered barrel and bevelled cylinder are requirements, right?

    Explain the difference between a new model 620 and 686

    Just seemed cheesy. More like a Taurus than a S&W. Along with a couple features I've since sworn off, that even then didn't impress me. (features we don't talk about cause people get their panties in a wad and kill kittens)

    Explain the difference between a new model 620 and 686

    Safariland doesn't make speedloaders for a 7-shot L-frame .38/.357 at all? They'd all take the same one. I liked the specs for the 620 myself, a few years ago when I'd decided it was time to be a gun owner again. Until I held one. Suddenly I understood why gun shows are so popular. They...

    CS-1 Owners, shoot it or safe queen?

    What's a safe queen? We're not talking about the original 1911 prototype crafted by John Browning here. These things have no "collector" value at all. Sure, an unfired one will get you a few extra bucks, if you can convince somebody that it really is unfired (it shouldn't be, from the...

    S&W 640 Club

    I'm in Though I agree a "Centennial Club" would make more sense

    Show Me Some 2 1/2"-3" MOD66s & 686s

    :drool: Now what model Tyler T-grip goes best with that rig? That's what I'm gonna do. One day.
