    Walther PPK/S back from S&W

    Just in case anyone is waiting for their PPK/S to be shipped back from repair. I received mine today via UPS (by the way, the driver had my sixteen year old son sign for it) after being at the S&W gunsmith since March. The pistol does have a mark just behind the hammer to indicate it has been...

    Did the #7 grips sell? If still available, I am interested as long as I can use them on a 327 M&P. Please let me know. [email protected]

    S&W POOR QUALITY CONTROL

    So I finally decided to install the rail on my NIB 327 M&P 5" R8. The problem being the rail holes do not align with the barrel holes, only one does. Also the screws sent with the rail fit the barrel but not the rail. It seems the Performance Center quality control is lacking. I called the...

    It is obvious many things have changed in our country since the "fall of '08. Let's hope we can reverse the changes in the future!

    Price of Revolvers and Ammo

    I confess to helping S&W earnings in their last quarter. Living in the very "blue" state of NJ, I suspect I paid a premium for my two purchases. First I bought a new S&W 686/4"/7 shot for &700+. While looking for difficult to find 357 magnum ammo, I came across a S&W 327/5"/7 shot M&P R8 and...

    Gunshop report

    Here in New Jersey (were politicos are gun-aphobic) you can't find a single AR. Handgun prices are sky high. I just bought a 686-6, 4" for just over $700. The kicker was I could only buy .38+p. No .357 available. I had to order some on-line from Cheaper than Dirt.

    Private Guns & the Military

    A few recent postings talked about right of the military to require active soldiers to reveal ownership of private guns. I felt that the Constitution protected their private rights and the soldier could refuse to comply with this intrusive order. It seems that at least one commander at Fort...

    Need advice on scope&mount for 686 4"

    I need advice from the members. I am looking to mount a scope on my 686-6 4" S&W. The gun came pre-drilled for a rail. Any and all information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks ahead of time.
