With the recent inquiries regarding John Giles work on accurizing pistols I thought I would dig out my Giles-Colt 38 wadcutter gun. Found at a local show late on a Sunday afternoon, this one taught me the value of sticking around until closing time ! Here are pictures, comments and...

6 years ago. Where does the time go? Back when a guy could find a buy now deal on Gone broker. Back before , well......Brewster showed up. Allen Frame

Greetings. Measure the overall length. 1.53" will be a 45 Colt cylinder for a model 25-2. 1.67" will be a replacement cylinder for a model 25-5. If the individual chamber throats measure .452 and are consistent one to another you have a good piece there. Good luck Allen Frame

Bump to top as Roy is writing the letter for this one. I will take some new photos as soon as I can .. Allen

Ask a bunch of ego maniacs with gun collections to post pictures of their favorites. What DID you expect? Allen

" Your Best looking Smith " Must by definition fall into two categories. Modified, and un modified . By the simpler definition I will post my best of the best here. For the most part, modified. Not Factory. Factory but for the Ivory grips. Brushed Chrome...

OOOOOOOHH ! " A true Unicorn " A picture of the end label would have been great. Can we contact the owner and request a factory letter? At least we'd know how many were produced. Allen 'Nut"

A man, and a pistol after my own heart. Nicely done. Allen

That sight setup is great. It would be the cats behind for competition shooting. Jim, where did you get it ? Allen

The serial # AUC should be from 1987 maybe late 1986. No box but true 99% ? This would mean the gun is unfired with NO handling marks. 99% guns are few and far between. There are fine specimens of late 80's 6 inch 25-5s sitting on auction sites now for $900. to $1000. asking with no...

I had never seen a 325 Thunder Ranch before and was surprised at how heavy it was when I first held it. It has a Scandium frame , hence the 325 model designation. But the barrel and shroud and tensioning nut are steel. As is the cylinder. The front sight blade is interchangeable and it has...

Just watch now. In the yoke cut. It's going to be a MODEL 28-1 . ! Allen Frame

E mail sent. I'll take the 460 ammunition. Shipping t.b.d. Allen Frame

I am very happy you got it. And the AVA serial is just wonderful happenstance. That one never pooped up on my radar. Congrats, Allen

Deep pocketed buyers. Buyers with LOTS of disposable income looking to invest in something other than precious metals. What greater fun do we have than to have a friend or two over to the house and pull out a few of the treasures and pass them around. You're not going to get satisfaction...

Ahh , Ahem, All 625s beginning with the -2 iteration regardless of barrel length were (Are) round butt frames. Hard to realize that even as early as 1988 S & W manufactured a complete line of revolvers with exclusively round butts. But, remember, all the early 625s were shipped with...

The engraver was Davidson out of Virginia. Regards Allen

You guys are killing me with these V-Comps. This is definitely a hole in the 625 collection. Anyone have one they're willing to sell ? Regards Allen

How about it. That is an amazing pistol. I bet it stays real still when you shoot it ! Regards, Allen
