I currently own a M41 and Buckmark, and just recently, a new Victory. I love them all. Yes, the M41 is more accurate than the other two, but that is to be expected given the price point. After benchrest testing them, I think the Victory is slightly more accurate than the Buckmark, but that is...

Thank you everyone for your input. I guess I will have to go shopping later this week.:)

Thank you everyone for your input. How does the Burris FF3 compare to the Vortex Venom; is one "better" than the other?

I am seeking advice from fellow forum members. I have been "thinking" of entering into the world of Red Dot sights, but have never owned one, and don't know much about them. My shooting is mostly indoors, informal bullseye style, so I have been trying to research various options. Some people say...

I love my new Victory .22lr. The first time I took it out to the range, after about 100 rounds of mini-mags, the front screw came loose. I took the gun home, gave it a thorough cleaning, but this time added a couple of drops of Ballistol to the front screw threads. Back to the range, fired a...

Thank you bc1023 for taking the time to review so many wonderful pistols. I have read your evaluations posted on Glocktalk, and I must say, you are one of best sources that I use before making a pistol purchase. I have a friend that I shoot with that has a nearly brand new 952-2 6" longslide. It...

I just sent you a message, as I have a set of the rubber grips with the medallions.....

Other than a bit less recoil, is there any advantage of running the 200g bullets over the 250g class bullets? How about accuracy differences? I just thought because the 45 colt was originally designed with the heavier bullets, maybe they would work better filling more of the case?

Thank you for your advice. I will give it a try.

I was fortunate to find a BNIB 25-9 .45 Colt, with a 5" barrel recently. I have never owned or reloaded for a .45 Colt, and would appreciate any advice that my fellow members could offer. I currently have Titegroup, Trailboss, and W231 at my disposal, so I would prefer to use one of these...

I was fortunate enough to find a 25-9 recently, that is brand new with the box/papers etc. It is the 5" half lug, unfluted cylinder with matte bluing. I love 5" barrels, as I find they balance so well for me. Could anyone offer some advice for reloading for this gun/calibre? I was hoping to use...

I wonder if one of my fellow members could help. I was fortunate to acquire a beautiful 27-2 recently, and would like to determine the build date. Ser# N419XXX This is my first P&R revolver, and I am very excited. Thank you for your help.

I would like to ask my fellow members what there thoughts are on the new Classic S&W's, especially the Nickel finish models. Does anyone have any experience with the build an finish quality compared to the older models? I have found a new one of these for sale, but it is quite expensive. Will...

Does the 45acp have the same "overbore" cylinders that I heard the 45 Colt may have?

I am the proud new owner of a fine 25-2 .45acp revolver. I have never owned one of these before and would like to find out when this gun was made? Serial # N760xxx Could any one of the more knowledgeable members help me with this? Are they a particularly "popular" model? Are there any problems...
