1006 I think based on what can be seen, or can`t maybe , that you`re underestimating at 95%. Good buy !

If allowed to suggest I would go for a Colt Diamondback, I guess in the now standard stainless, in 22LR ( would spend my bucks) and 38 Special.

I only have one myself but it`s a really nice first year Mountain Rifle in .280 Remington.

Victory Thanks to everyone for the scoop. I just spoke to S&W and they`re sending me a new screw on the house. And I will hit Lowe`s within the next week or so for the O ring too. John

My Victory barrel seems to loosen every 15-20 rounds with the resultant rounds heading for 6 o`clock and beyond. Of course I have gotten in the habit of carrying a wrench that fits the barrel/frame bolt but has anyone discovered a fix for this ? Some kind of vinyl/plastic crush washer maybe...

S&W Victory I too have a Victory that I bought in 2016 after one of those un-successful times of trying to re-assemble my Ruger Mk 3. Boy, what a PIA they were. Recently I was perusing the S&W lineup and saw that they offer a "Target" model which has a solid front sight and thumb rest grips and...

Per Sig220.45 "They have. The FBI’s current issue 9mm is the Critical Defense 135 grain +P. There is also a Critical Defense .40 with a 175 grain bullet of the same design". Question: Is it "Critical Defense" or "Critical Duty" ? . Realize Hornady likes to throw 'Critical' around but seemed to...

Choke system Oscar Zulu, I went back and found the e-mail and that barrel takes Winchester/Browning as well as Mossberg chokes I believe. They seem to be lesser priced in the scheme of things compared to others. The same ad that "got us" has some for 4ish dollars. They might be Chinese...

Some years back when our son moved out, kicked around, and ultimately bought a house back home in Richmond he surprised me (and scared me) when he told the story of what he thought was a possible intruder. Earlier on when in North Carolina I had given him a Fwt Model 70 to start "his" collection...

Colt 22 For my wants I really hoped "the" Colt 22, when it arrived, would be a Diamondback. Maybe a shorter barrel than the purported 6 incher (3 ?) would excite me but I`m still glad the new Colt management is "movin`on up".

40 to 9 I have a 9mm OE barrel that I use in my 40c occasionally. I bought it at Midway. Of course you need 9mm mags to make everything work. I have never had a failure to feed, fire and eject "but" whereas with the 40 setup it throws the empties to the next county it only chucks the 9mm...

Mod 63(or other)? Here`s hoping Colt will get the 22 Diamondbacks out soon :)

10mm advent/ sunset ? No badge-owner here to attest to the inner sanctum workings of the 10 but I read with great interest the article about the FTU and the reasons for picking the 10. Note: did not recently read this...still have my copy with that article from back in the day and remember Mr...

M70 Seeing the rear sight I would venture it is the "Westerner" model.

buy/trade 150gr Hotcores traded with member "wmb". Thanks greatly. Still looking for Hornadys 7mm 154gr Interlok bullets and the box of 50, 30 cal 180gr Grand Slams(un-opened) are still up for trade.

.280 Sickness(glad my wife doesn`t know) I own 3. An XTR Featherweight push-feed, A Classic Fthwt, and a Mountain Rifle. The push-feed has been with me to Wyoming for Pronghorn, Idaho for Elk, and S. Africa for Plains Game (largest critter=Gemsbok). I have an `06 too but always grab the .280...

40 to 9 I posted recently on a similar query my experience...have a Gen 1 40 Compact and bought a S&W 9mm barrel from Midway. It has not failed to feed/extract/eject any rounds 'but' in 40 form throws the brass quite far and in 9mm form ejects them about 4 ft. As "enidpd804" says would not use...

Seiko/Rolex(oops)/Omega/Rolex(finally) My Seiko didn`t make it through the monsoon. Went to the AF PX at Danang Air Base and bought the above mentioned Submariner, although I believe it was around $600 if I remember. Got it set up and back to base and the next day it died. Back to PX, they...

Your 57-6 Critch, Congrats on your purchase. I have 2 Model 57s myself and "back in the day" reloaded and chronographed various loads and never could get above the low 1300s with my 6" and using H110/296 and 210 gr jacketed. I know there are a few newer powders around but I think your 1500fps...
