I just contacted Remington about some warranty work and got this email: "Due to the nature of the acquisition, RemArms LLC. is unable to service existing Remington firearms, honor any warranty or recall offered by the Remington Outdoors Company. As a show of our commitment to the Remington...

WTB Remingtion 552 .22 receiver. Thanks

Thanks for all the opinions. Good reading and I learned what a single action notch is. The more I thought about it and after researching buying a used trigger to cut the spur off, I decided to leave the S&W alone. It has too much sentimental value and is in great shape. Too bad I don’t have any...

That's my thinking Klyde. It's more of a home defense legal concern for me and my wife.

I’ve been tossing around the idea of using a spurless or bobbed hammer on my inherited S&W 15-3. The double action is butter smooth but when cocked the single action is feather light. My thinking is that for a home defense a spurless hammer would eliminate an accidental firing. I know proper...

200 rounds of Winchester .45 230 FMJ bought in November, 2015 for $72.97 before tax at Walmart. Just sitting in my closet. :D

Hello to everyone. I'm new to Smith & Wesson by an inheritances of my Father's S&W 15-3. I've had the revolver for 2 years now after his Dad's death and only recently started to search it's age. That's how I stumbled on to the website and it's wealth of information. I think this 15-3 was made...
