Thoughts and prayers for you and your family.

Sounds like a place off Bourbon Street.

Maybe GM will have a recall on these this year.

You only tink dat its bizarre bucuz you don liv dere!

They are absolutely pristine compared to the guns used by Eskimo seal hunters. I looked at a rifle in a Mountain View (near Anchorage) pawn shop which had to be the worst I have seen. It was red with rust and the stock was bleached white from the salt water, with numerous knife cuts signifying...

I have used Easy Off Oven Cleaner to remove the old finish and caked on oil from military rifle stocks. After spraying it on, let it set a while, and then scrub off the residue with water and a scrub brush (or steel wool). Used an old toothbrush to scrub out the checkering on non-military...

Go ahead and keep stressing over preserving all of your unfired guns in pristine condition. After you drop dead from a stroke, your wife's new husband will have a ball shooting all of your unfired guns. Fine wine is made to be drank; Beautiful women are made to be loved; and great guns are...

Check with local gunsmiths, especially the ones that did armorer work for law enforcement agencies. Many of them changed out target hammers and triggers for the standard versions on PD guns.

We have all made the same mistake-more than once. I should have bought (or sold) is just part of the gun game. I have many regrets in those departments over fifty years, but I still enjoy the search for the right gun at the right price.

Damn! I remember seeing a barrel of Brazilians in an L.A. gun shop thirty+ years ago for $50 each.

Tite-Group is an excellent powder for use in the S & W "in-between" loads.

My sentiments exactly!

I have had one of these for about ten years, and it has become my favorite trail gun with its excellent combination of carry ease and power. I have shot loads up to 180 gr. with no problem, but do not make it a habit. Overall, I have probably put in excess of 500 rounds through this gun with...

The main purpose of Magnaporting is to reduce muzzle flip, which it does quite well. You do get some recoil reduction and noise from the process. You will get more recoil reduction and a lot more noise with a brake. I like Magnaporting on the guns that I shoot primarily with cast bullets, as...

I pirated the Model 65 (Ladysmith) that my wife won in an SCI banquet raffle. A set of Pachmayers and Magnaport treatment makes even 180 gr .357 loadings comfortable. This has become my favorite trail gun. I may have to get a 640 to eliminate all of the razzing about the Ladysmith logo on the 65.

Terrific thread. The fact that this thread spans three pages (and counting) and a number of years says a lot about the .25 ACP. A lot of good and thoughtful comments-both pro and con. I have three of these little pistols, and although, they may not be a top choice for self defense, I have...
