Looking for intact K and N frame demilled for grip pattern.

At the gun show today talking to a friend about an upcoming auction. The gun is as described to me a five screw pre model 15 with a five inch barrel. His information is that there were 250 made for the Missouri Highway Patrol. Apparently the auction house has confirmed that it is correct but...

It's easy to see how the term Long Colt came to be. I can imagine when the shorter 45 for the schofield came out that was the easy way to describe them. As to clip and magazine I stopped explaining the difference a long time ago. Call it want you want. How about "Hand" and "Pawl" if you make the...

I would go with the 41 mag or 44 special. I like a little more meat in the cylinder walls. Depending on the contour of the barrel depends what it can be re-rifled to. The cylinder part is easy. Find someone good to do the barrel work first. Nice project.

Shortages have happened before and will again but this one looks to be the worse so far. Anyone who didn't see this coming wasn't looking or thought the rules didn't apply to them. Guns aren't worth much without ammo, I would rather have a baseball bat or golf club. They were made to swing. I...

This is just memories from 30+ years ago. As i recall there was discussion about the pressure curve being very quick in the 40 S&W and the semi auto were unlocking before the pressure had reduced sufficiently. I know that Colt had a very hard time making them work correctly.

I frame Ejector Spring I have five right now I am working on and none appear original. These are 20s and 30s guns.

You can bring it to a plater and they will do it cheap or you can buy plating stripper from Brownells which works good but then you have to dispose of the stripper and pouring it into the ground is not a good idea.
