    My Model 18 needs attention

    The wood grips are on it. We'll see how it does with a good cleaning.

    Free revolver..38 S&W top break.. a Meriden?

    My like-new Model 19 and Bersa 22 came from a liberal who was angry because #45 got elected. I was glad to fork over $350 for the pair. Congratulations on your 38.

    Double Barrel Shotgun Pistol

    I once read where somebody got shot in the back of the head with something similar and they lived because the barrels were too short to properly burn the powder and accelerate the shot load.

    What to do with a box of Western Super match .45 ACP ammo?

    My grandpa would want me to shoot it. I would want my grandkids to shoot it.

    My Model 18 needs attention

    Hello. Over the years I've disassembled/assembled my S&W's. I don't have a lot of them. Took my 1950's era Model 18 out yesterday and it had light primer strikes in DA mode. Average one/cylinder full. SA was fine. Do K Frame main springs ever need replaced, or do you just adjust tension at...

    Any info on this gun?

    Thanks everyone. I don't have enough information, and the auctioneer wasn't able to supply it, so I am taking a pass.

    Any info on this gun?

    It's at an auction site about an hour and a half away. They seem to have a good reputation but...I called yesterday, asking about it. He didn't seem to want or be able to take the time to give me more information about the gun. He said he thinks it is a 32-20, and he said it is good...

    Any info on this gun?

    This is the best I could do for a picture. The finish is pitted but maybe it could be a shooter. They think its a 32-20.

    Any info on this gun?

    Sorry for the cryptic information but this is all I have. I'm asking about a S&W 32 HE, SN#8009. I was told, over the phone, that it is probably a 32-20, but he wasn't sure. I realize this isn't much to go on but I thought I'd give it a try. Thanks.

    WW2 .38 S&W pouch for ammo?

    Not meaning to drift your thread, but I picked up a like-new dump pouch from a junk box at the LGS and said to the owner "5 bucks?". He said yes.

    Another Unusual Holster

    How's this for unusual? I've never seen another like it. It's a Don Hume.

    $89 New Shotgun

    I posted earlier how my RIA single shot 20 gauge had to be sent back twice - then they replaced it with a new one. The new one has worked perfect, never failed to ignite the cartridge (which was why I kept sending it back), and it is probably the most accurate slug gun I have ever shot. And...

    Getting Back Into Leatherwork, finished #10

    I am a fan of G42's and pocket holsters. I also have an interest in leatherworking but haven't got off my butt yet. I did pick up one of those rotary hole punches and I have a curved needle. Just need some thread...... This is a most excellent holster. Horsehide. I would like to make one...

    $89 New Shotgun

    I'd want to know if they can be fixed. I had to send my RIA single shot 20 gauge back twice before they replaced it with one that worked. $89 is a cheap gun or an expensive paper weight.

    Charter Arms Undercoverette 32 mag, any experience??

    This comparison has me baffled. J Frames fit loose in the kydex holster I have for my 605. My 605 will not fit in my leather J Frame holsters.

    The not to distant past.

    I remember buying primers one or two hundred at a time for my 22 Hornet. When your only equipment is a Lee whack-a-mole kit, 100 primers will last you a long time. (I've since upgraded.)
