I'd be interested in learning the "Skeeter" load. I have the data from the Speer #8 manual. Is that the same thing? Thanks Pete

Dave Clements has bored out 686s and GP-100s to 41 Special.

The Schofield cartridge specs, from memory a 230 gr @ 830 f/s, became the standard on which the Army insisted when the 1911 was adopted. Also, as someone mentioned, it was common to use the old percussion terminology when referring to the newer cartridge guns. Thus "ball" and "cap" instead of...

Here's mine. Lots of dried sludge on the outside. Luckily, all the lube inside is still liquid. Cased hammer and trigger too. Also, on the bottom of the right grip frame is a 5 digit laser etched number. MSP rack number?

Here's a Navy marked Victory I bought when there was a bunch of them on the market in 1994 for $125, V90442. All numbers match except the grips. It's no problem to keep a soda can bouncing at 25 yds with 125 gr Nyclads!

Oh man, I love this stuff! I'm crying I'm laughing so hard!

Stunning!!!

Actually there is an exception to the FFL rule if the gun in question, even a handgun, was bequeathed as an inheritance.

I own a few Herretts and the style is unmistakable.

The stocks on the 63 and the first 36 appear to be Herrett's. Very nice, and well north of $100 each if had them made today.

Yeah, and they're calling the 69 snub a "Combat Magnum" and have verbage about it being a K frame! Doesn't anybody who actually knows something about the product proof read this stuff?

11 for me, but only 4 came from Springfield. 19-3 2.5" 65-2 3" 28-2 4" 27-2 5"

And I believe that gun is too late to have been shipped with cokes. Any chance of pictures?

Couldn't find anyone selling these bullets on GB. Do you have his user name?

I would insist on seeing the metal condition under the Pachmayrs. Rust and rubber seem to like each other.
