Here's a nice Colt 1903 - Pawn Shop Rescue Not the .380 version, the more delicate .32 Auto. I was visiting my local pawn shop where I do most of my transfers, and saw this old, re-nickel Colt, with beat up original stocks (grips). I don't typically go for re-blued / restored guns / etc., but...

So many good recommendations here. Like they say "How do you choose from the stars in the sky?". ANYWAY, like the other folks, I have several of the choices mentioned earlier, but I do have a favorite. I'd probably go with the Walther P22 in either of it's barrel lengths. And the reasons I'd...

Hello friends, Just a little story about a purchase made at the recent Miami, Florida gun show. For the last couple of years I really haven't seen much at the show of interest to me. I have all the "AR" type stuff I want, and after a couple of plastic fantastic guns, OK that's it. Decent used...

That's a real good price, and CDNNsports.com has the factory 12-round mags (in .40 S&W) for $28.99. Go for it. Best wishes, Roger AKA Mr. Wonderful

Hello IAM Rand, There are a number of great, super-fun air guns out there, but like you said... some can run into a lot of money. The pre-charged pneumatics are top of the line, and by the time you get a real compressor, etc., you've spent real $$$. I use a "spring air" (barrel cocking) Beeman...

How does one choose between the stars in the sky? I'd probably be MOST interested in getting a high quality .22 bolt action. Some can be more accurate than your shooting abilities, and you are not going to find anything cheaper to shoot (unless you add an air gun to the options mix). I picked...

Hi folks, Looking for a replacement backstrap (small or medium size) for my SW99 compact .40 pistol. The 9mm compact version should work as well. Thanks for your time and consideration. Roger AKA Mr. Wonderful

Here is a model .38 Safety Hammerless of interest. Hello friends, A couple of years ago I won an auction lot of five S&Ws. Over the next couple of months I asked Roy Jinks for the shipping date of each. When he got one of these requests he replied, "You are going to want to get a full letter...

Actual production and shipping can get very mixed up... Hello friends, My .38 M&P 1905 4th Change # 5715XX shipped in Jan. 1927. Best wishes, Roger AKA Mr. Wonderful

Here's a Safety Hammerless from August 1909. Hello folks, I got this pistol in one auction lot of five guns, a couple of years ago. It wasn't the one that I REALLY wanted, but I've come to love it. By the way, one of the OTHER guns (a .38 Safety Hammerless) in the same lot lettered to Mr...

I feel compelled to say, that revolver is one of the most beautiful I've ever seen. AND I need to compliment you on some excellent photos. Photographing nickel guns is always a challenge. Thank you for posting. Roger AKA Mr. Wonderful

Gotta Love 'em! Hi folks, Here's a 16 gauge '97 I picked up a few years ago. The front sight bead had been replaced, but other than that I believe it to be original. I'll probably go ahead and put a more appropriate brass bead up front sometime in the future. When I first saw the move...

Not original - not expensive - it was a deal... Here is a Colt 1903 I picked up for $250 at my local shop. It had what appeared to be original, worn grips, original magazine, and a decent nickel job sometime in the past. For the price I couldn't pass it up. Toss in another $50 (or so) for...

Ask and ye shall recieve! I really like the 27-2s with the 3.5 inch barrels. Have a couple, both a blued and a nickel. These photos are my nickel baby, with two of those photos wearing a set of Ajax "Kirinite" stocks. It's funny, sometimes I get together with some local gun folks for a "Happy...
