158grain, many years ago I ordered a winchester mod 70 from my lgs. When I finally got it, the holes for the sight mounting screws were drilled/tapped crooked, but after waiting several weeks for the rifle I accepted it that way. It didn't affect the function of the rifle but 20+ years later it...

It was a 270 win, I don't know if there's a round in the chamber. The barrel is plugged and the bolt is rusted solid. I found it in 1994 and mounted it on a peice of oak. It's been hanging on my wall ever since.

I found this S&W rifle in a glacial river in Alaska.

I don't know if there is a best pocket Knife. I love Trappers best, and have a modest collection. Case is a very good American made knife at a reasonable price. Buck is another quality brand but watch out for chinese models. Buck subed out some of their knives for a while but they're back in...

The grips appear to be original but, no box, no papers. It did come with an Uncle Mikes Side Kick holster. I doubt the holster was ever on a belt and I'm fairly certain the firearm has had less that a box of ammo through it. It was part of a larger collection that got broke up a few years ago.

I have a 6" no dash 586 and I have been considering swapping the barrel for a 4" Well I recently bought a 4" barrel but would like some input before I get them swapped. Should I or shouldn't I?

I recently picked up this 4" model 10-5 for $300. It's in like new condition with beautiful gloss blue. Serial number D497xxx. I'm guessing it was made in the mid 70's, can anyone confirm the age?

New guy here from the far north. I found this site while researching a new to me,Hawes 22 but I have a few S&W's so here I am!
