I had checked a couple of these places. Grabagun has them for ~$26, so I "grabbed" two :) to go with the two it came with. I already have a full size, so have four of the 17 rounders. Thanks for the suggestions!

What's everyone's favorite source for 15 rounders? I picked up a new 4" 9mm compact this weekend. Lots of places to get mags...any good deals out there?

I appreciate all the activity! Sorry it took a while to respond - elder care takes me away sometimes.

If it's gunked on the inside, I can't tell it from working the action. I have cleaned it with CLP quite a bit before, and it lives in a silicone-lined Bore-store, but I was quite surprised to see it like this when I brought it out for photos. It will get some more attention. I have a number...

I've enjoyed shooting it a bit. I am keeping it in a silicone-lined Bore-store. You might not think so, but I've already been over it thoroughly with CLP previously; I was very surprised to see it this dry when I brought it out for photos and to make this posting. This is one of those I would...

Well, she was a hoot :D She and my grandfather lived way out in rural SC, and they both worked for Burlington Industries ("the cotton mill") in Batesburg, SC. She retired early on disability. He passed away first. When she passed, at age 75, my family and I went over to secure the house and...

Thanks! Been on here quite a while, mostly lurking. I find I've accumulated quite a number of S&Ws, those most of them are not revolvers! I went to grad school in Boulder, back in the late 80s/early 90s. One time I went with the flying club up to Laramie, in the winter. It was quite...

Yes, my grandmother carried this in her purse a lot - and she never had a holster. I never saw anyone clean it, either :eek:

Thanks; that's very helpful. No serial on the grips, though there is what looks like a "T" scratched on there (using a straightedge). I first became aware of this revolver around the mid-seventies; it has always had those grips in my memory. No idea when or where or how they came to be on it.

Thanks very much!

I'd love some help with identifying this revolver with specific model, date or date range of manufacture, etc. This was my grandmother's revolver. It's a hoot and a pleasure to shoot. I appreciate anything folks can add. I can tell the following: hand ejector, serial 587919, caliber 32 S&W...

Yes, and the controls are very similar, so the 22 compact is an excellent trainer for the Shield. I got one for my wife specifically as a trainer, as the Shield is one of the few pistols we have that she can rack.

I have a 9mm Shield with safety that I picked up a couple of months ago. I like it VERY much. The safety doesn't bother me since I shoot 1911s a lot; it actually helps me transition between the two.
