    Mahindra Tractors

    Has anyone got any experience with one or know anyone with one? They claim they sell more tractors worldwide than anyone. Parts are made in India and the units are assembled in Ga. They look very nice, price is quite a bit less than a JD or Kubota, New Holland, Kioti etc. There are 2 dealers...

    Good memories, but sad.

    My Dad was born in 1925 and lived on a farm. About 1930 my grandfather bought a 1923 Maxwell touring car. My Dad says it was in very good shape and very serviceable, but Maxwell's weren't very popular so they were cheap. My grandfather chopped off the body but left the cowl and dash board to...

    A couple of squeezers

    I recently picked up this 'lemonsqueezer'. By the serial number, it appears to be made in/about 1907, if I read the book right. If it weren't for a couple of pits on the other side, it would be about a perfect finish. A lousy pic but the price was right...$250 OTD. it's a nice match to my...

    tell me about your Tundra

    I've been wanting a Tundra for quite a while. I've known several people who have had them for years and put over 300k miles on them with no issues, and they still look and run like new. Last week I took the plunge and bought a new 2014 double cab 4x4 with the 310 HP 4.6L engine. It;s like...

    Nickle 58

    I started this in the earlier revolver section, but when I went to see it it was a Classic model, a 58-1. This is the one that I was told about and looked at this morning. It is beautiful, perfect,in the box with all papers, etc. If it didn't have these, I would have walked out: but after...

    Nickle 58 ?

    Did the 58 come in factory nickle? SCSW doesn't mention nickle. I'm going to look at one tomorrow and am looking for all the info I can get. All I know now is that it's a nickle 58. The guy who told me about it thinks it's a -1 which doesn't make sense to me. . Is that one of the new repro...

    Model 331

    I think I made a big score today. I picked up a prelock model 331 from 1999 NIB with all papers,etc for $500. I got it from a collector who bought it new and as a pure collector, he newer fired it. I had a 332 a few years ago, sold it and regretted it immediately. Now I'm back in the game! If...

    LGS has one of these new in velvet box with white faux ivory grips. Adjustable front sights, and it's ported, I believe. It is gorgeous, huge and looks real nice in that beautiful blue lined mahogany box. Can anyone tell me anything about this thing? Scarcity, desirable, price? This thing...

    Wood grips on a 500?

    Does anyone use wood on a 500? I HATE Goodyears and am considering some wood. I just don't know if the human hand can stand anything but cushioned rubber on this beast. I you do, what do you use and which grip sizes will fit?

    500 comps

    Why are their two different comps on the 500 ? Why is one for lead and the other for jacketed bullets and what happens if you use the wrong ammo with the wrong comp? I just got a new 4 incher, blew thru about 10 rounds using a few different types of ammo with different type bullets and took a...

    27-2 5 inch or a 44-40 Winchester Mod 1873

    Both are priced very good, in good shape and each would be a good deal. The Winchester is dated somewhere in the mid 1870's. I forgot the exact mfg date as I was so excited about it. :p If you could only get one....which would it be? I have the above offered to me. I have a dilemma.

    Spring kit

    I've got a 38 no dash Bodyguard from around 1958. It's finish is not pristine so I'm using it as my carry gun. It's trigger pull is very hard and I'd like to lighten it up. Can anyone recommend a spring kit that will make the trigger as light as possible but still make it totally reliable as a...

    1903 .32 HE 1st Change

    Just got this. The nickel is much better than I can photograph. It's not a perfect gun but the nickel is pretty darn good for being over 100 years old and something that has seen some use. Should I keep it or ask for my $100 back?

    I've been poisoned !

    I recently discovered that the element Ni (atomic number 28) is a hazard to one's mental and emotional being. It seems that once you touch it, it gets into your skin and causes heart palpitations, and heavy drooling. It causes an addiction, whereby you need more and more, just like nicotine or...

    looking at a 29-2

    4 inch, in Nickel, 3T's. It has been very gently used but there's not a flaw on it other than a very slight turn ring. This is as good as they come without being unfired. He also says he might have the presentation case. He's going to look for it. I don't know what to offer and the seller (a...
