    How to spot a C&R S&W?

    Curio and Relic. No need to feel dumb. Better to ask than remain perplexed.

    Ladysmith = "Girl Gun?"

    My wife won a Lady Smith at a local sports banquet. I liked it so much that I appropriated it for my hunting back up gun. I had it Magnaported, and it is very controllable and easy to shoot with Pachmayer grips, even with 180 gr. .357 Magnum loads. I actually killed a deer with it after I...

    Model 1000 Fore end

    Glueing a forend I have had good luck repairing semi-auto shotgun forends with a good grade of epoxy and fiberglass window screen. The screen gives a bit more strength like the fiberglass mat used in boats.

    Progressive press question

    I have owned a Hornady Projector press which is the predecessor of Hornady's current progressive for twenty something years. Very durable and serviceable press. I have loaded many thousands of rounds on this press, both rifle and pistol, with no problem. I have also owned a Dillon, which was...

    45 cal. Revolver or 1911?

    I have a 1955 and a Colt New Service. Both are great shooters. Brass for the 45 AR is available from Starline and is very durable. Don't worry about the strength of the 1917 and New Service revolvers. They were made to shoot .45 ACP GI ammo, which generates pressures around 30,000 psi. Used...

    Lyman 45acp load data w/200gr LSWC

    In my 45 ACP Pistols and in my 45 LC Revolvers, 4.5 gr. of Bullseye gives the best combination of power and accuracy.

    Would You Ever Swap Out your "J" for One of the Small Autos?

    What do people do with NIB classic revolvers?

    I thoroughly enjoyed shooting them, and have since enjoyed shooting them even more. Fine wines are made to be drank, beautiful women are made to be loved, and pristine firearms are made to be shot. To do any less, would be an insult to their respective makers. Just my opinion.

    What do people do with NIB classic revolvers?

    I used to keep mine pristine and boxed. Then, it dawned on me that I might just be keeping these so that after my death (or divorce), my wife's new husband would enjoy shooting them. No more pristine and boxed for me. They have all been "deflowered".

    What do people think of the 9mm revolvers like 929

    My first question is "Why?". Once past that, it seems like a very small case for such big guns (N & L Frame). Might be a good package for resurrecting the old 9mm Winchester Magnum.

    Latest Addition - Model 66-2

    I bought my 4" 66 from a Montgomery Ward store in Louisiana in the mid eighties. It has been carried many miles, and has never failed me. If I had to liquidate all of my guns, it would be the last to go.
