You described my feelings/apprehension more specifically than did I. I don't think it's a matter of interpreting something we are 'told' or 'shown' that 'has been written', so much as it is a matter of what we are not being 'told' or 'shown' that might also have been written. (Much like having...

First heard about this some time ago then it seemed to fade for a time. I do remember reading that if such a move were signed in the form of an international 'treaty' it would be enforceable. The plethora of back-door legislation undertaken by this admin has me concerned about thst 'treaty'...

Repack FWIW - Do the headstamps indicate anything in particular? Many years ago I bought 5 boxes of 45 acp ammo from a friend who obtained them in a collection. Each box was square, green cardboard with metal corners and French (IIRC) writing. Each held 16 rounds IIRC. After shooting first 3...

I hope this is in the right place and is not redundant. It seems almost all of what goes on in this country against decent people is hidden from them uintil it is sprung upon them en masse. Scary for sure IMO. NAGR Gun Rights Blog U.S. agrees to timetable for UN Gun Ban

Excellent condition - 3.25" barrel - tight - lock-up and timing fine - no scuffing/wear - green hiviz ft sight - beautiful double action and light single (safe) action - hammer and trigger jeweled. Uncle Mike's finger groove grips - Fired 38's only - NO 125 Grain bullets. May be looking to...

66-5 Grips That's a surprise to me. I have always thot of Pachmayrs as thin from side-to-side, but I have been out of shooting for a long time. I will look for some of what you recommend. Thanks very much.

I purchased an exceptionally nice 66-5 snub nose from a friend and it came with the original S&W rubber grips and a set of Uncle Mike's rubber grips. Both are too narrow for my palm and I am wondering if there is a rubber-type grip that is known to be wider than average? I am not talking about...

Loads I have just recently begun getting back into shooting. On advice of a friend, I purchased some 45 cal. bullets from Dardas in Michigan and was pleasantly surprised at the lack of leading even tho the loads were minimal in my Star PD (4 - 4.5 - 5.0 Unique w/200 gr semi WC.) Smoke was less...

Bullet puller FWIW - Many years ago when I was doing much shooting and reloading, I used my RCBS 'hammer' type puller to pull a few 300 Win Mag (loaded) bullets. On one of them, upon the second strike against a concrete floor, the primer detonated precisely as the bullet and powder exited the...

Little used 44 Mag RCBS Carbide Sizing Die - (Not one with decapper) for 45 ACP RCBS Carbide Sizer. (My first post in this category - if I am any way in error, please advise.) Thank you

That is what I was thinking. Actually, the grips are a little 'thin' for my hand anyway, and I am thinking of getting a broader, more hand-filling set w/o breaking the bank.. Thanks very much for responding.

I read this forum too often:) Therefore I bought a 66-5 3.25" revolver which came with the regular(?) S&W rubber one-piece combat/finger-grooved grips, and also a set of normal screw-on type rubber grips. (No name) It looks like the original S&W combat grips simply spread and 'snap' onto the...

Very very much appreciated.

That's the one. (I think :) )

Seems I missed those two. Will try. thank you

Many thanks. The mention of reg police brings up another mild issue in that this particular revolver has the square butt and the long grips inletted for the square butt which I thought would make it a Reg Police model. I lost the Jinks letter from 30 years ago that described the gun, but I am...

Sorry to bug everyone, but have not been able to locate a hand for my revolver anywhere in last many weeks, (including no responses from any place I could find on the internet.:( Does anyone know if a hand from another model (i.e. model 36) may be fit to my I frame? Many thanks for any help.

Interesting. Thanks for responding.

Serial # is in grip as well as on cylinder rear and front of grip frame. (296XXX) Right grip shows slight blurring of checkering. It is evidently a Reg Police because of the non-rounded grip frame and grips conforming to frame. (Yes, there is a 'cut' or 'shoulder' in the rear grip frame.) I...

I am having trouble finding a hand for this revolver and am thinking of selling it as it stands. It looks to have been re-nickeled or nickeled over bluing since the innards are nickeled as well and the S&W logo seems to have been nickeled over (unless some were made without it.) Markings on left...
