Are you insane??? :eek: Why would you want to ruin the perfectly good finish that it already has? :mad:

AND restore the frame profile on the J and K frames to their previous curvature. The flattened profile on the lock guns is what really makes them ugly.

How did you acquire these two beauties?

Chad Gripp (Gripper) had a Triple Lock that had been converted to .22LR, as show in this thread: https://smith-wessonforum.com/s-w-hand-ejectors-1896-1961/274670-triple-lock-sn-2747-chambered-22-long-rifle.html?highlight=triple+lock+conversion In post #39 of that thread, I showed pictures of a...

Screenshot and pics from the auction for future reference. GB links go dead after a few months. It really should be a Forum requirement that anyone who posts a link to a completed GB auction includes an uploaded screenshot. :mad: Otherwise in three months it will all be a mystery.

I can go one better, 10-5/8". :)

I have no idea what you're talking about. ;) From right to left with 8-3/8 barrels: M-17-4 .22LR M-48-4 .22WMR M-53-2 .22 Jet M-14-4 .38 Special M-27-2 .357 Magnum M-29-3 .44 Magnum M-25-9 .45 Colt M-57-1 .41 Magnum (with scope) M-29-3 Silhouette 10-1/2” Dan Wesson Model...

This is the first mention I've seen of this chronograph, so I googled it. Looks like a Garmin Xero clone, more or less. At $350 it's just one more argument not to buy a Labradar now at any price. I've owned a Labradar for several years and a Garmin for about one year. Once I got the Garmin I...

The Garmin is so much smaller and easier to use than the Labradar it's no contest. The Labradar is pretty touchy when it comes to aiming it at the target, and muzzle position to activate it. I also had to refer to the manual every time I used it, not at all intuitive. And it's huge and heavy...

Well that was interesting! Your reference of an Antonov AN-2 kicked off a memory in my brain's archives and I went searching through my photos. I was pretty sure I had seen one in Seattle at the Museum of Flight's Restoration Center (actually in Everett, at least in September 2007 when I was...

These are wide angle views taken with my cellphone, so exposure is whatever the phone chose. And this is not my picture, but one taken of the Earth by a lunar lander, Firefly Aerospace's "Blue Ghost". So for the lander this is actually a solar eclipse, where the Earth is covering the...

Then totality was from 1:26am to 2:32am. Timewise, these pictures overlap some with my previous pics but the exposure is 1 second, to show the eclipsed part of the moon. See next post for wide angle views....

Here in Central DST the partial phase began at 12:09am. Pics taken in manual mode with a shutter speed of 1/1000 second. See next post for exposure set for the eclipsed part of the moon....

Pics from the closed auction: For comparison, I found this at a local gun shop five years ago: Pre-34 Kit Gun - nearly sprained my shoulder. No box or papers but I can shoot it and lose any money....

Thanks, that's good to know. That's about the height that I calculated that it should be based on how high it is currently shooting.

Hey, can someone with a Model 520 (the blue, six shot, fixed sight, N-frame .357) measure the height of the front sight for me? I have one that I bought a few years back and the front sight has been filed down to only .088 above the top of the ramp. The GB seller theorized that someone was...

Auction pictures for future reference.

When I was a kid growing up on the farm and working on plows and combines and such, my Daddy told me to "Tighten it as much as you can, and then a little more."

You sure about that? That same rumor was floating around about 10 years ago on the Colt Forum. Python Replica from Pietta | Colt Forum
