Thanks all. I noticed after fiddling with it for 1/2 hour or so that when they rigger would stick to the rear as usual, I could use my fingers and slightly rotate the cylinder and it would all go back into battery as normal. So, like you all said, the cylinder fails to rotate completely to...

Hey all. My brother in law picked up a nice USED Bodyguard revolver in 38. It’s the no laser version. He found it at a local gun shop for a good deal and bought it. Knowing I really like small revolvers, he brought it for me to see. He might be wanting to trade it to me. Anyway, it’s a...

Thank you all for the wealth of information you provided. So many nice pistols out there to choose from. Choices choices!!

Hey all. I’ve always liked the 3rd generation pistols. I especially liked the TSW variants. I have been thinking a bit on trying something new for CCW. My current 45acp carry gun is a Colt 1911 XSE Stainless Commander. What I’ve been thinking of is the 4513TSW or even the plain 4513. I...

Hey all. I have a really nice m65-5 in 3 inch that I picked up as a police trade in many years ago. It’s a fantastic revolver that I really like. I have a buddy that loves guns and is not as knowledgeable as he’d like to be. He was texting me the other day and asked me to compare my 65 to a...

Hey all. I got out my Factory grips with my Tyler-T-grip and put it back on my M65 in 3-inch. I wanted to compare the feel and grip of them and the rubber finger groove Grips from Midwest Industries…they came with it and aren’t made any longer. My only negative with the Tyler adapters is...

Hey all. I have a m65 in 3 inch that I like a lot. Now that it’s cold, I’m gonna be carrying it more and more. I did have the factory grips on it, but now I have a set of rubber boot style grips on it. This is a police trade-in piece and both grips came with it. The problem with the...

Thanks all. BEAUTIFUL stuff!! Keep ‘em coming. I have been toying with the idea because I have a 65 police trade in that also has typical handling/holster marks on it. I have Colt XSE commander in stainless that I got a wild hair up my hind end several years ago and got out the rags and...

Hey all. I’m curious whether anyone has polished or had it done to their stainless revolver. I’d like to see what a polished up stainless revolver would look like. Not talking about a factory type model, but one that came as a standard stainless model that you had done to a nice high polish...

Thank you all very much for your help and advice. I appreciate it. Have a good weekend all. Larry

Hey all. Question I need help with, if you don’t mind. I’ve been watching videos on a couple different J-Frames chambered in .22 Magnum. I think both were labeled AIRWEIGHT and were 7-shot. One was hammerless and the other had a hammer. Both looked like great options for CCW….especially...

Hey all. Can you all tell me what 1911’s S&W had that were lightweight or Scandium? Im most interested in the Commander size, but full size would be ok too. I don’t know whether they were in 45acp or 9mm. If you could please list the ones you know about coming from S&W, that would be great...

Hey all. I’m pretty sure we all love 3-inch revolvers. I have a m65-5 that is a police trade in that picked up about 15 or so years ago. It’s my only 3-inch. I’ve been checking out pics and specs of other 3 inch revolvers to see what other models are out there that I wouldn’t mind having...

Thanks for the suggestions. I think I’ll just try other grips until I find what feels best to me. I was mainly thinking of strategic use of skateboard tape or maybe something else that would “stick” to the surface to improve purchase. I don’t think I could’ve went thru with doing anything...

Hey all. Here’s another issue I’d like help with. I have the standard factory grips on my m65 in 3-inch. I also added the aluminum Tyler T-Grip adapters to them to improve the feel and handling. I like this setup and would likely stay with it rather than switch to Pachmayr or other rubber...
