    RANT--USPS--UNBELIEVABLE ENCOUNTER X 3

    No money order complaints here, but I did recently have a frustrating experience with USPS. On 6/11/25 I mailed a (correctly addressed) certified letter to a business in Pensacola, FL, which is located about 12 miles from the sending Post Office. It arrived in Pensacola the next day, then was...

    If You Could Only Own One Smith & Wesson… What Would It Be?

    I have been cutting back as I age, so I don't have as many as I once did. I'd have a hard time choosing between the following 2. One might think obvious choice would be the 6" Model 952, but I have a lot of history with the 586.

    Range Rod shenanigans

    I just bought brass rods of various sizes and cut them to the desired lengths. I haven't needed one in over 35 years but keep them in the range bag just in case someone else does. I never felt the need to have a perfect fit in the bore.

    I got to take a ride in a cyber truck today

    I'm seeing a LOT of Tesla cars here in NW Florida, as well as several of the trucks. To me, a vehicle that I can't jump into and take off across the country just doesn't seem practical. Maybe I just don't understand how the ins and outs of charging enroute works, but there must be a system for...

    The Best .22 Ever Made

    My Seneca Green Nylon-66 was made in 12/1959 and I received it on my 8th birthday in 2/1960. I still have it, although it was somewhat neglected by my brother while I was away in the Army. Best .22 semi-auto made? I dunno about that, but mine is certainly my favorite.

    DOES MAG NA PORTING KILL COLLECTOR VALUE ?

    A fellow on a local forum was selling some inherited nice S&W revolvers, including a 6.5" Model 29 (no dash, S prefix). Photos weren't great but it looked good so I set up a meeting with him. To my surprise (and disappointment) it had been mag-na-ported. At first I considered it a no-go, but...

    A MUST VIEW IF YOU OWN A MODEL 41 - PSA

    This thread seems to have fallen silent. I received my 2 Model 41 extractors today, much quicker than expected.

    A MUST VIEW IF YOU OWN A MODEL 41 - PSA

    Thanks for the heads up on these. I ordered a couple, even though I have an extra OEM extractor or two on hand.

    Current carry: what's on you right now?

    Sig Sauer P238 (.380) on me now, H&K P30L 9mm nearby, and my trusty S&W 586 in the night stand in MBR.

    .40 S&W vs .357 Sig

    Interesting thread here. I shoot .40s (among many others) but never tried the .357Sig...actually, I never gave the cartridge much thought or consideration. I enjoyed reading the various opinions posted here; Very interesting, thanks.
