    cporfe is legit

    Had a great transaction with cporfe and would gladly deal with him again! Item was exactly as described.

    Old grip adapter ID

    I'm not an expert woodworker, but this gives me an idea for a project, sans the threaded hole in the frame part.

    Too Much Black is Never a Good Thing

    That was a very cool idea! Now, do another thread and show us how to magically convert that Phoenix medallion into a S&W medallion. :D Just kidding, I like my Rugers, too.

    Gunbroker Is Crazy

    Yes, except for the fact GB already charged the seller a much higher fee for commission, so why do they need any more from the buyer? Sort of like Rock Island Auction; they charge both the buyer AND the seller a 20% commission, plus an additional percentage for CC payments IIRC. Can you imagine...

    As stated, these are simply going to be used for a shooter-grade model 15.

    "Washer" replacement

    Once the washer arrives that a fellow member is sending to me, my plan was to see if the stud is long enough to protrude through and very possibly (carefully) solder it without heating things up too much. I'll keep an eye out for a deal on a better set one day, but these are nice enough that...

    Question about J-frame Magnas

    These pictures depict bare wood after stripping them and soaking in acetone to remove any residue. I agree; it's beautiful wood and appears to be rosewood rather than the typical Goncalo Alves. As usual, I will apply several coats of Tru-Oil. My goal isn't a glassy mirror finish but rather...

    Question about J-frame Magnas

    Assuming that you're talking to me, no, I'm referring to the slightly flat area that runs the full length of each one. See first picture.

    Model 57 pics soon ….

    Congratulations! My first .41 was (and still is) a Redhawk in stainless. Since then I've added a nickel 57, blue 57, a 657 and now a couple of Blackhawks in .41. Just warning you that it's a downward spiral now that you're hooked! Totally agree with you. The .41 is quite versatile and has...

    1960's 29-2 Bringing home some Venison

    Awesome! At this point I've pretty much converted to using a handgun rather than a slug gun during gun season but use my .41 Mag Redhawk with a 2x scope. Even with a scope it's quite rewarding to fill a tag, especially when using your own handloads.

    Gunbroker Is Crazy

    One of our LGS runs ALL of their used guns through GunBroker. You cannot walk into their store and buy a used gun over the counter. As a result, I always watch their listings and have picked up several very good deals, especially since there are no shipping or FFL transfer fees involved.

    Gunbroker Is Crazy

    Not long before Covid hit us I took a similar chance on a 57-0 on GunBroker, Chip. As in your case, the seller's posted less than excellent photos and it sold below what most similar 57's sell for. Not being a big fan of nickel guns in the first place, I was nervous and expecting to be...

    15-3 4” price?

    I just found a 1975 15-3 a week and a half ago at a LGS with incorrect--but original--non-relieved diamond target stocks in its original box with paperwork for $450. It had belonged to a cop and they were asking $500 but I noticed the PO had used a bit of black paint to touch up some bluing...

    Question about J-frame Magnas

    Well, they appear to me to be OEM S&W.

    17-6 side plate?

    Steve, if you change your mind let me know. Pretty sure I may have an extra one. I have a nickel one for sure but am not certain about blue.

    Steelslaver, you make me wish I'd chosen to be a machinist rather than the one I have.
