I dont think so it looks like the normal smith and wesson grips they had on the model 19 just sans the medallions and these weird rubber inserts that had the numbers on them granted I think I should have said target stocks not combat, but it was unfired, their was NO marks where the rounds sit...

Yeah I just got my hands on a vintage K38 from 1952 about 3 or 4 months ago thanks to a smith and wesson book I bought and its only just now that I've finally built up the nerve to clean the thing after shooting it twice, as it was actually unfired and completely new save for one little mark...

yeah that's an early one, you can tell by the grips, the early ones were black gloss, the latter matt, and it should have square washers under them vs the circular of the latter ones which also had a change of the safety lever thing from a hex pin to a basic x type screw something you pick up...

Yeah I'm trying to find out what they look like, let alone if they actually made any, as I've been hearing for years that they made a modified version of the first model model 39 extractors after they were having breakages with them after they adopted them as their state police sidearm back in...

yeah just to give you guys an update I went to the range with 18 and 20 pound LB springs in addition to the 17 factory and I had some odd issues with the 18, as the 20 was too heavy to fit into the gun and compress. and I had a weird lockback issue on one of the rounds with the 18 where it...

I've never had issues like that before, that's the weird thing, I can and have shot the tiniest of guns without any sort of issue, I mean I just managed to get that moose of a glock, the 27 to actually hit where I aim despite it being way too small for the .40 call cartridge by using the trigger...

The gun had its extractor replaced and fitted by a gunsmith, as it was having this same problem right out of the box when it was bought used and then taken to a competent one after the extractor broke, IE the front gripper part of it broke, and I think that was after screwing around with a...

and I should mention I had all of these ideas about what to do with the thing, maybe change the finish, front sight and all that to match the bren ten and with how well it shot to point of aim at 25 yards, I didnt do a damn thing to it, as I was like A this things fine as is, and what are the...

165 grain brand new american eagle ammo, and I got a new old stock magazine and it happens with that and the older ones, I had it happen with the New Old stock fully loaded, and then the older one that it came with. and blue dot your running a 20 - 22 power spring in it? is it possible that...

650 for a NIB straight from 1986, with the original grease in it, the *** shoots lol like old Elmer was right, the perfect replacement for the M1911 IS a model 39 in .45 acp, IE the 645 lol

Abit of a long story, this gun has had its extractor replaced, the recoil spring replaced and its function to my knowledge fully checked over. and its still stove piping, I switched from a wolf 17 pound recoil spring, the weight that they say is the factory standard to a 16, as it was stove...

so any idea what happened then, is this just late break in and maybe it just got gummed up on me? as I had been using this sticky gell like M22 stuff to clean lead out of the barrel.

true but I think that might be more a result of things being so hot right now, hell the 645 that was 400 went to 600 because of all that is happening right now.

That's alright its not the steel frame or the latter ones made of SS, besides the bluing on the alloy's arent that nice. plus its only 7 G people throught the world, I doubt its going to make a dent in the grand scheme of things and with 9mm evaporating like water in a desert sun what are they...

I was having some sort of a weird issue with the 645 while dry firing. for a little bit there when I cocked the hammer and fired it it would catch in half cock mode and it seemed to only happen about 6 or 7 times. Then after oiling it and fiddling with the decocker it never seemed to happen...
