Bump to the top

I bought these and ended up not needing them. I believe they’re Regulation Police stocks from the 1920s. It appears there’s a faint 6 digit serial number on the right stock. Price $150+ $10 shipping. Payment through Paypal, USPS Money order, personal check(5 day hold) or Venmo. Only trades...

Bump it up

I’ve got a couple letters that shipped to individuals, all are “no address listed”. I bid on that revolver as well to use as a shooter, but tapped out after it went past $1200. It’s definitely renickeled in my opinion(side plate seam is the giveaway). The seller has sold it twice that I’ve...

That’s a nice gun with some great family history! Your 32S&W was made during the black powder era. I believe you’ll only find that ammo available online. There are some boxes for sale on Gunbroker but they’re a little pricey. I think I paid $75 for a full box a month or so ago. I’ve read that...

Bump to the top

My skill set is limited. I’ve made a couple mainsprings but that’s about it. Im debating on ordering some new files and trying my hand at making the ratchet pawl. I won’t be able to fix the file marks on the frame but I’m not too worried about that.

It’s far from nice that’s for sure! Here’s a picture with a straight edge. I don’t think one area of the cut is straight. Thanks for the explanation on the ratchet pawl and the diagram that helps a ton.

I’m surprised it functions correctly with all the wear. I was hoping you’d chime in as I see you’ve bought a couple of these. Do you have any recommendations on repairing the ejector part that was filed down? Is it even worth it since it ejects properly(atleast empty).

Thanks for the reply! I think there’s a few replaced screws on my gun. The side plate screws are flat heads and the hinge pin screw is wrong as well.

I bought this Model 3 American(Serial 4825) off GB the other night. It doesn’t have much, if any finish left. The barrel has been cut right before the Pat. JULY 10 60 date, and has a silver front sight. All the assembly numbers(#34) match. The stocks aren’t numbered. The extractor catch(not...

Bump to the top

Looking for S&W top break boxes. Let me know what you have, thanks!

Bump to the top

Thanks for all the replies. I agree it’s most likely dealer added. I haven’t been able to find any non engraved top breaks that letter as silver plated.
