Question on the Colt? So I ran the SSN on the Colt sight and it came up with two different guns made years apart. Does anyone know why Colt did such? Secondly, it is a Police Positive Special not as I have describe it above. This was made clear to me by a friend on the board. Cheers and help...

Hello all, Stopped by the LGS yesterday. They had a new shipment of security guard trades all Colt brands. I picked up a shooter grade 38 Special, 4" barrel, Police Positive to go with my 32 PP for $200.00. How did I do? Advise when possible. :D rd ;)

Hello all: I have a question for those in the know. When did Smith stop putting the blade front sight on the K Frame 38 special 6 shot 5" barrel revolver? Advise when possible. :D rd

Rhetorician Response Thanks guys, It is good to know that there are folk out there that have the same issues as I had. I would get rid of the thing but know I would kick myself later, especially since I got it for such a good price; and as I said above everyone needs a J Frame of some ilk...

Hello all, I purchased a Model 360pd Scandium/Titanium about a year ago. I bought it for a song from my local pawn emporium. I have had several issues, probably more with me than the gun? So I would like others of you to share your stories with the rest of us either good, bad, or ugly if you...

Rhetorician Response Just my opinion: I carry: A Smith 360pd, J Frame, Sci/Ti, 357, that weighs only 12 oz. I load it with 38+p and feel really well covered. A Ruger LCR 357 snub. It weighs a bit more, 17 oz. unloaded but still light enought to carry under most circumstances. I also carry...

Hello all, This topic has interested me for some time. I own and carry the Model 360PD 357 and use 38 plus p in it. I also own and carry the Taurus 738 TCP 380 acp. While I was researching, I found that one fellow on line swears that the little Taurus where we worked at a gun range had at...

Response to RG RG, I only used one cylinder full, that is all. :D rd

Hello all: Well you would think an old dog would learn but not me I suppose. I had some trouble running some aluminum cased cheap 380 acp through my little Taurus 380 acp. It was the only thing that has not run in it or that has given me any problem. So I swore off. I ran across some steel...

Rhetorician Response Kaashop49, Thanks for the comeback and the observations. I like your, "This is not the gun to drive yourself crazy shooting bullseyes" comment. I had about decided to either: sell the thing; or trade it off for something I know I will like and can shoot; or clean it up...

Response Question Hello Irn Bru, Tell me more about the Crimson Trace grips? Prices? How they work? Differences between the iron sights and the Crimson Trace? and any other information you wan to relate? The DS 124 model seems to be the least expensive, is there any difference in which one to...

Question Response Josh, Thanks for the comeback. I am most chagrined for today I was using Tulu (sp) steel cased ammo. When I shot I could not even get them out of the cylinder. I have been shooting the orange box Tennessee reloads different weights and mostly 38 specials no +p or 357. You...

Hello all: I had always wanted a Smith snub nose. So when I ran across a Model 360PD Scandium/Titanium 357 I had to get it. Got a great buy on it. Had to put a Hi Viz front sight on it, it did not have the one that came with the stock ones from the factory. The one SW suggested was installed...

Hello all: I am a revolver man indeed!!! I have been so smitten by the recent purchase of the Model 360PD, 357/38+p/38 special, titanium, scandium, snub nose, that I might venture off into some new revolver territory. Does anyone about have any experience with the Smith Governor? Let me hear...

Rhetorician Comment!! Scooter, My hat is off to you kind sir! I for one do appreciate your expertise. But I have to tell of my consternation toward Smith revolvers especially since they are the "gold standard" of the firearms industry. I have a Model 360PD 357 J Frame with a gargantuan...

Question about prices now? A fellow over on another board thought that this might make the prices of the Hi Point go up? What think ye? :D Thoughts? ;) rd

Hello all: Did you happen to see the Hi Point Article in NRA Rifleman? Not to shabby, well tempered I thought. I shot a friend's c9 Saturday and was really impressed with the caliber and the weapon. :D My thoughts. Yours? rd

Hello all: At the risk of getting flamed here I go: I wish S & W would make a J Frame that has a comparable trigger pull to the Ruger LCRs "right out of the box." A fellow on another thread (not board) said he wished they would start with a "clean sheet of paper" and design a new J Frame that...

Rhetorician Resonse SW340PD, I really do respect your opinion. But who wants to spende $1000 on a hand gun then have to do a "trigger job" "right out of the box?" That is my point!!! or question as it may appear? I am sure I will get flamed for "taking the name in vain!" :D My thoughts...

Hello all: I have recent purchase of a Model 360PD, Scandium/Titanium, 357 snubby. I bought the piece "for a song!" My problem is, it is about to kill me getting use to shooting it because of the inordinately hard trigger pull. I first bought a Ruger LCR 357 with its butter smooth trigger and I...
