Thanks, thought so but just wanted to make sure

Looking at a Model 60-14 stainless rubber grip. Just want to know if all Lady Smith have the LS or Lady Smith engraving on them. Be Well and Thanks Ted

Picked up a top break .32 Hammerless Lemon Squeezer Ser.# 941## but it has push down barrel latch, and flat safety lever spring serial # match on barrel, butt and cylinder. Nickel with 3 in barrel. S&W trademark on right side of frame Due to the low serial numbers listed as 2nd model, the trade...

Just picked one up Thursday, Brazilian marked, and they did come with checkered stocks if I remember right. Mine certainly is not in great condition but brought it home checked it out, fired 6 rounds from 25 yards everything hit within a 5 in circle good shooter. Actually very pleased with its...

I depend on this forum and the S&WCA to keep me informed concerning price and availability, books are good but can be dangerous. I wish I had never paid to much for a firearm but, I have. I go to gun shows and auctions to continually learn who is out there and doing what. There is always senior...

I believe the Boy Scouts are a good organization, or at least the ones around here are. They still place flags on veterans graves at many if not all of the national cemeteries. A friend of mine informed me that their troop was in need of a 22 bolt action and some ammo (not begging just brought...

If your not satisfied with miles of trigger pull and want crisp action, good grip variety, and dependability you just got to love those revolvers. Be Well Ted Sorry just had to say that

I really don't know what the problem was in the handling of problems of the firearm. I was just stating how well I was treated by the Smith and Wesson Service Department. I am not condoning nor am taking up for poor service. There are individuals that have bad experiences in restaurants, retail...

Not really sure if this right answer but I had a problem with a revolver. Called their service department and explained the situation. They sent me a shipping box, it was picked up and back in my hands within 10days. Granted this was the only experience I have had with their service and it was...

I just picked up a Model 19-6, 4in in box with original warranty card, manual etc. and sight tool. Exc. to Exc. +. While I was paying to much for it and started doing some research. It seemed as though the Model 19 supply is diminishing. This is my 2nd Model 19 (1st was a 19-3) and when I bought...

Agreed, 95% of my handguns are revolvers, 2 autos and 1 of them is Smith and Wesson, I shoot at home so everyday is a revolver day, and life is wonderful. Be Well, Ted

Thanks to all got a lot of good info, But seems to be the tip of the iceberg. Be Well Ted

Thanks, I am going back through my reloading manuals and remembering what I forgot. I my neck of the woods a lot of reloading supplies are limited so I use what I have got. I never experiment I always use the information on IMR website prior to starting any new loading. Right now the primers are...

I have been loading 38 spl and +p's. I was listening to some individuals that were discussing burn rates of powder for 357 magnum and what primer is best suited. They were informing me (if I got it right) that the IMR 4756 is a slower burning? powder so it would require a magnum primer to burn...

I pick up Don Hume when I can, good heavy leather will last forever. Bianchi is also a good pick. good 8 oz leather with insert leather added to the bottom side from trigger guard to the barrel and a shimmed trigger section for easy smooth draw and smooth easy return and recovery. Good thing is...
