Thanks for the tips. Jack has SS ones. Won't match, but it should work.

Thanks. So who is Jack?

Hey everybody, I recently bought a pre-model 14 Target Masterpiece that is missing one of the extractor pins. Anybody know where I can get one? I've tried Smith & Wesson, Numrich, Classic Firearms and Parts, Midwest Gun Works and Brownell. Thanks

Barely fired with Holosun 507K and 3 17-round mags. I have added grip tape. $900 shipped. Will consider trades for a nice k frame (prefer snub nose). First "I'll take it" gets it. Thanks

Please bump

Sold locally Very nice Model 17-3 with target stocks, trigger and hammer. The stocks don't have a serial number so may not be original. Finish is very good to excellent. $950 shipped. Please make sure your FFL will accept shipment from a non-FFL. Be sure to add "I'll take it" in response when...

1973 C series Hi-Power, Belgium made. Ambi safety and original non-ambi included. Has wear to bluing but is mechanically very good and functions as it should. Bore is also good. Includes original magazine (could use new spring) and 1 new 13-rd Mecgar magazine and 2 new 15-rd Mecgar magazines...

Thanks for the information. I looked on Numrich again and found it this time.

I just got a 1902 First Change that is missing the extractor knob. Anyone have a suggestion on where I could get the appropriate knob? thanks, Theodoric

I know you're looking for older versions, but I just bought a new 686+ yesterday for $850. I really wanted a seven shot, I don't think there are pre-lock options for that. Figured I better get it now. So I bought the first, and only, one I could find.

Thanks for the replies. Think I'll d a little more experimenting with non-expanding bullets like LSW and DEWC at around 700-800 fps and see where they hit. I think the ideal bullet has a big flat nose but slightly tapered for quicker reloads.

Thanks for all the replies. I'm leaning toward the 148 grn DEWCs and maybe some 158 LSWC or LSWCHP if I can find a load where POA is POI. Has anyone seen a slightly tapered, non-hollow point, 158 grn bullet with a big flat front? Was thinking that would be about perfect--wide front for punching...
