    Grip frame plug for Response?

    Did some searching here and on the net but have so far come up empty. Does anyone of a grip frame /mag well plug that will fit the Response. For some reason the gapping hole in the bottom of the grip just bothers me.

    FPC vs Response

    I'll apologize if this has been asked before but I've searched and can't really find what I'm looking for so.... My state just passed a sweeping "assault weapon ban" that will quickly ban the sales of any/all semi auto centerfire rifles after next week. I already have "what I want" for AR's/...

    New 43C back to SW

    So I ordered a SW 43C a couple of months back on a whim. I already have a 63 and a "couple" rimfire K frames but thought a lightweight pocket gun for plinking /woods walking might be fun. When the gun arrived , I did a quick inspection for blems, dry fired it a few times (on snap caps) and...

    Model 41 Barrel screw/ tap size help

    I just picked up a new but "blem" 7" barrel for my SW 41. The barrel is D&T for a mount but only had two filler screws installed in the front/ blind holes. The rear two (through) holes won't accept either those filler screws or screws from the Weaver mount I'm trying to install. ( The screws...

    Dating UEHXXXX SW41?

    Hi all, I've been away for a while. good to see you folks still chugging away. Anyway, I have an opportunity to purchase a clean mod 41 from a local source at a decent price. Serial number is UEHXXXX. Neither of my SW bibles go up that far in date. I'm figuring mid 201X? Can anyone help? Also...

    Thank you Dawson!

    As my eyes have aged, I find myself liking (almost needing) a brighter sight picture on my range guns. Consequently, I've been regularly reaching past my SW1911 Pro 9mm to get to my Springfield Range officer for it's fiber optic sights. It's happened enough times that I finally decided to...

    1911 Stag grips

    I bought several sets of these a few years back and never installed them. they are genuine organic material but I don't recall what animal they originate from. ( I don't thin it's Sanbar as the color of the bark is a bit lite.) Anyway, I have two full sized sets with ambi cut outs for sale...

    Who is using Google Pay for Android?

    So I'm thinking it's a good time to set up the phone so I can pay for stuff without passing money or cards across hands. From what I read, Ggl Pay is a good app for this but admittedly know nothing. Anybody here using this app (or another for Android) ? How is set-up and operation? Easy? PITA...

    WTS: S&W 10-7, 6" Super clean in box.-SPF

    Up for sale is a super nice example of a Model 10-7 safe queen with pinned 6" pencil barrel, origonal grips, box and papers. The box has a few storage dings but the gun is super clean (and likely unfired although I cannot prove it 100%). The finish is stunning! The only mark on this old girl...

    Value for unfired 6" 10-7?

    I've been looking on GB but there is little that is directly relatable. So I have a model 10-7 (1981 production) in my collection that I'm thinking about letting go. It's got a 6" pinned barrel, is unfired and pristeen in every way. It comes with the box ( with some wear), orgional papers, wax...

    Value of 308 brass?

    I just inhearited a few gallons of once fired commercial 308 brass. It's been cleaned, sized and primed. I don't load 308 and am wondering what I should ask for it. Thoughts?

    Revisiting the Ruger MK III.

    So I've admittedly always been a sucker for a nice .22 handgun. I've also been an accumulator of the Ruger MK series target pistols over the years. Thinking back, I must have owned over two dozen of them at one time or another. These days, I keep a MK I, a pair of MK II's and four, MK IV's...

    130/135 gr 38 super bullets in 9mm?

    I've had good success with running 130 and 135 gr cast and plated RN bullets marketed for the 38 super in my 9mm 1911's. I'm not sure if it's the weight being "just right" or if if find he .001" over sizing is the key, but they shoot into tight groups. In any case, I was wondering if anyone...

    Anyone else still use Solo 1000?

    I found Solo 1K to be a favorite powder for loading medium velocity, low recoil 9mm rounds. As I recall,I got my initial recipes from competitive shooters who used the stuff. I've long since run out and it was unavailable for a few years but see it's now being produced again. Just wondering...

    Any Computer tech folks here?

    I just bought myself a 10" Aser notebook for xmass to mess around with. It seems like a decent little machine but it's giving me fits. Namely , it will let me download programs/applications like AVG antivirus and Google Chrome but when I try to run them to install, I get a box that says that...

    Any Diabetics here?

    So I've found the (one?) upside to being an insulin dependent Diabetic. The Shipping containers my insulin gets delivered in make AWESOME ammo storage containers. For those not familiar, these supplies arrived triple wrapped in a airtight foil bag, thick foam cooler (with tight fitting lid)...

    Any Chemical Engineers here?

    It seems like daily, we here reports of plastic pollution of the planet. Oceans,Land, rivers, ... everywhere. i.e mainly that although plastic is great stuff for allot of applications, once produced, it stays with us for ever. So much so, many towns, cities ( and maybe even some states) are...

    Anyone have a TK 9mm conversion done lately?

    I see on their website that TK Customs is offering a machining package on the customers cylinder that will allow it to shoot 9mm as well as 38/357. Sounds to good to be true and I'm wondering about accuracy and reliability. However the price and simplicity is attractive. I was thiking about...
