    My 1917. Anybody got any ideas on this?

    I dont think Ill ever sell it, but if I do Ill post it on here first. What would this gun be worth anyway. I dont have anything to compare it too. So i should look for a set of round butt K frame grips, instead of N frame

    My 1917. Anybody got any ideas on this?

    someone told me that this was a "bowling pin" gun used for some kind of shooting contest back in the day. I would love to have a matched pair. I just have to find some grips now. Would love to put a set of ivory on her.

    Help ID my 38 SW.

    My grandfather picked this gun up around 35 years ago in a pawn shop. The family had been shooting 38 special out of the thing since they got it. Till I came along an noticed the barrel says 38 S&W Cartrige. It will chamber either round. 38 SW or 38 Special. I think somewhere along the line it...

    My 1917. Anybody got any ideas on this?

    I picked up this pistol in a trade about two years ago. It has become my favorite wheel gun. It shoots like a dream and functions perfectly. I have no idea how old the work is. Does anyone know what dates the serial number falls in. It came out of the collection of a gentleman who passed away...

    S & W poker chips

    I sold a poker set with the aluminum case for 100 bucks. Everything was mint and had never been used. The chips in this set seemed to be weighted and of "casino" quality. The guy that owns it uses it for his weekly games.

    A question about S&W handcuffs

    well you know these plated cuffs we have are chipping. Gonna need more money in the budget for new cuffs. Just cause you dont get a pair doesnt mean they didnt get the cash for them

    Cobra .38 Derringer. Thoughts?

    We had several "used" cobras come through the shop. You should pass. These guns are on the same level as bryco. The guns would come out of the boxes messed up. I have seen screws work loose in people pockets. My favorite one was the guy that pulled one out of the box in two pieces. We gave...

    You guys have fired up my SW addiction

    So I was never had a fan of wheelguns. Over the past couple of years I have come to have 4 or 5 vintage SW's. I was told to come over here from a tactical forum because I had an old box for a model 60 for sale. After coming here I have been haunting the gunshops for old SW revolvers. I can see...

    Recommendations? Easy 44 Special loads and Quality 22 LR loads

    The Wolf 22 ammo is amazing. The price cant be beat. I stay away from the bulk packs in anything but ***gasp*** Rugers. I would suggest loading the 44 that way you can get a pet load for it
