    Registered Magnum .22 LR

    .22 Triple Lock I hope one (or more) of these confirmed rarities were returned to the good ol' USA after the Wembley Matches....if they stayed in the "Mother Country"....they probably ended up in a blast furnace. Pip-pip....ho-ho !!

    My Gunshow Partner's New 29-2

    LOVE the 29s!! I still have one Mod. 29-2 in my collection.....A 4" nickel, bought new in mid-1975. Last fired in the 80s. Replaced factory grips right after purchase (still have them, though) for a pair of Jay Scott "toilet seat" Pearl-lites (smooth vs. checkered, and easier for me to grip.)...

    Vietnam war US Model 10-5 round butt revolver

    I saw numerous examples of these in the time I served at Army Ordn. Processing Centers in Long Binh & Da Nang (2/71 - 2/72.) A few Victory Models, but mostly 4" RB 10-5s....all I recall had "U.S." stamped on their backstraps. I recall most had serious finish issues, mostly spotty rust. These...

    2 Inch M&P Front Sight

    Could anyone tell me approximately when Smith & Wesson quit using the full blade/half moon front sight on the 2" Bbl. M&P ? I recently acquired a two-incher (C352xxx) that lettered to Mar. 14, 1956. It has the "newest" hammer (flatter, sharp-toothed spur), but the old, full blade front sight...

    Smith & Wesson M&P "Jig Hole"

    What is the purpose of the Jig Hole on the lower end of the M&P frame butt? I have a recently acquired 2" M&P from early 1956 that has this hole from side to side down from the open area for the mainspring. Based on a post I saw yesterday, this has been discussed before, but I missed it. Any...

    WAshington State Patrol 38/44 Heavy Duty Model of 1955, Pre model 20

    Beautiful S&W duty guns. Re: Tommy Guns.....shame Washington State as bad as Washington, D.C. when it comes to private (legal) possession of NFA/Class 3 firearms, such as Thompson SMG. Humble opinion. Thank you. - webley6
