    Does This Exist?

    Smolt Smith with a Colt barrel. Coulda been called a smython. The name starting with "P" and ending with "ith" just did not win over marketing.

    choosing a s&w revolver for a female marine for ccw

    .45 Colt or ACP all good. Even though the measured difference , between a .45 and a .44 (.429?) is small, it is noticable. The larger hole just has a sincere no nonsense look.

    29-2 vs 629 as far as value is concerned

    Value? The dollar value questions are confusing. The gun's highest value is to be used as a shooter. I have been sorry ever time I have ever sold a gun. I thought that "good investment" "holds it value" stuff was just something people tell their wives. This 629 is not junk. Look no P...

    choosing a s&w revolver for a female marine for ccw

    N frame (pre model 25?) in .45 Colt , just like ***** Galore , of Goldfinger. It is far better to make acccomdations in clothing and carry devices than it is to have an inadequate weapon when you decide to start shooting. Yes, your character has the ability to predict the future. She knows when...

    Model 29-2

    8 3/8 are great to shoot. 4 inch better to carry. 6 1/2 is somehow the one everybody,including me thinks is the ONE and it is not that much different to shoot freehand than the 4 and almost just as big a pain in the car seat as the 8 3/8 unless you use shoulder holster. Get it if the price is...

    hot and accurate .357 loads for deer

    Instead of making a clean one shot humane kill more difficult by choosing an inadequate cartridge, why don't you make hunting more challenging by going bare footed.

    I found one of my "Grail Guns"!

    now I need one too My 27 had magnas , but I quickly changed them to target stocks. I have two sets of Kuracs. It is nice to have the original stocks put away in case your widow wants to donate your guns to a museum. While I'm alive I like to carry, shoot, and show off my Kuracs more than any...

    Model 29 in .357 magnum?

    SOP in the spy biz. When cops ask us something we don't remain silent, we disseminate disinformation. It's the same way we get chicks.

    .44 mag blows up with Chinese ammo!

    This is becoming common. I have seen about 5 guns almost identical to this. Sometimes it is tite group, sometimes collected left over and knocked out case powder. Now Chinese are at it. Commie devils. Always a stainless .44 . I will send this pic around as a public service . I am willing to...

    When things go bad

    Model520Fan Has it about right. I use and carry my revolvers, but sort of baby them. I would have a seizure if I got my model 29 as messed up as I have seen 1911's get and be made right without tools. All my friends have 1911s in their collections, mags, parts and the know-how to keep them...

    the Old argument, it's just semantics

    Correct terms are as important as musical notation was before recordings. Most WWII soldiers did use clips; the 8 round clip for the M-1 Garand. A magazine is the storage area in a weapon, or ship. Using the term clip incorrectly to descibe a detachable magazine,won't end the world. But it...

    Age old question: to shoot or not to shoot

    Shoot What would you do? The gun has not been made that is too good for you and your family to shoot. IMO the 65 qualifies in a big way as a shtf choice or a what if I could only have one gun, gun. AND no Rubbed Bluing..... the Horror. I understand your desire to save this one for the...

    gf pregnant can she shoot

    I like that gals judgement. There is plenty of time to shoot and her maternal instinct are like a lions. Only lions won't start to scratch you up for lookin at their sister and start crying. Good for you both. You have reminded us old goats of that special time . If you have a little girl...
