    F.B.I. why .10mm. over .45ACP. ?

    How much of our taxpayer $ have the professional nutcuppers @FBI spent to determine that monkeys can throw poo through the bars and get their man? Disband and start over. It doesn’t matter what they carry. I could care less.

    waiting for two more 27s

    Nice collection. They’re all so well proportioned, beautiful to look at and shoot.

    WTB S&W 952

    Looking for an unmodified 952 target 9mm, in nice shape, dash model not important. Prefer one without a billion rds down the pipe. Please pm/email me pics with what you might want to move along. Thx in advance

    pistol shooting technique.

    I agree, re: trigger finger. I have large hands and use the index finger tip on all nice triggers (say 4# or less) that do not require a leverages 'pull'. The lack of soft flesh on the tip gives me much better trigger control...neither low nor left. Ymmv

    Return of the Model 19

    My '68 6" M19 is awesome. Relatively light, accurate and the action is 'it'. I love shooting SWC's through it in something like PPC competitions. Great hobby you have!

    another 'what year' thread

    My 27-2 has an SN of 332xxx. It has 3T's and a presentation box. I read where this means it was shipped after September of 1975? Can any one verify when it was born? Thanks in advance!

    oh great, another thing to collect!

    One S&W is 'nice to have', but since adding the M27? Clearly the beginnings of a collection! My wife will be thrilled....:D

    An ugly sort of pretty

    Fifty bucks? SOLD! A new plate (or refinish, or not) and cleaning the grips up will go a looooong way. Lots of recipes for cleaning finished wood, but I like an equal part mix of (in a glass jar): denatured alcohol, boiled or raw linseed oil, turpentine and cider vinegar. Shake often and...

    new 2 me 27-2

    Just got this in from my FFL today. Sn 332xxx, I'm guessing around a 1974-5 according to other's I've seen go by(?). Has a mahogany presentation case with a cleaning rod and wire/oil wipe. Grips appear to be walnut. Blueing is 98-9%! 3T, white outline rear sight and ramped/Baughman with...

    Ammo issue supply and demand or not?

    I agree it's S&D on popular calibers (22lr, 223/5.56, 9mm, 40 S&W), BUT, something stinks of profiteering on some other calibers (38 Spcl comes to mind, 357 too).

    Gun Show 27-2 4 inch

    Very sweet gun nad the right deal. I just watched a 27-2 in 4" close for $949 on GB a couple of days ago. It looked to be in nice shape but wasn't a pristine/unfired type. I just paid too much for a 27-2 6", but will post pics/story once it comes in and not steal this thread.

    Ammo supply / shortage??

    The fish smell may be coming from George Soros, a well known 2nd Amendment hater...conspiracy theories have it that he's cornering the market on ammunition, specifically controlling conglomerates that have ammo manufacturing in thier portfolios.
