Hi Guys, I know this is a S&W forum and the only forum I belong to but I was hoping one of you might be a Ruger Speed Six fan. In the 1980 when I still had little knowledge of revolvers and what I liked I purchased a new Ruger Speed Six 4" barrel blue 357 mag. I shot maybe a box full and for...

Can anyone tell me if any model 66's or 67's (pre lock) has front sight blades that could removed and exchanged for other shapes e.g. ramp vs blade? WP

Hi Guys and maybe Gals, Has anyone ever had Mark Hartshorne of Pinnacle High Performance out of Quakertown PA. work on their revolver? I was looking at his website and he offers an interesting conversely for S&W K, L ,and N frame 357 revolvers. He changes the cylinders to shoot 9mm, 38 super and...

Hi folks, If my question has been beaten to death please forgive me. My priorities have changed this past year and I don't have the luxury of checking this forum as often as I would like. My question is "does any one manufacture the plug these days?" A few years ago I was corresponding with a...

Good morning everyone, I have a very strange request and I'm not certain where to post it but want a place that reaches lots of readers so I'm hoping the moderators don't ding this. I am looking for a Luger (a shooter...not collection piece). It doesn't matter how it looks but needs to very...

Hi Guys, At my age I have most of the firearms I need or perhaps even want. Now I'm looking for those select few. Here is my dream: I want to find a matching set (not serial #'s etc) of revolvers. A 4" N frame S&W blued 45 Colt and the same frame, barrel and steel in a 45 acp which I believe...

When I first saw one of the new 686 pro models my first thought was "Ugh" but somehow over the months I've "developed" an appreciation for the shape of the revolver especially the 4" model. Does anyone have experience shooting one of the 4" pros? How does it compare to the "old" style 686? I'm...

Many of you probably know Mike Grasso retired LA homicide detective who use to post quite a bit on this forum. I'm quite fortunate to know Mike and live near him. Here are some pics of a real snub nose cannon that I obtained from Mike at a substantial reduction of what it cost him to have this...

Does anyone have info on the S&W 22 45 acp revolver. I saw one at a recent gun show and it was so ugly it looked pretty. The guy selling it wanted $1500 which seems very high to me but I really have nothing to compare it to. As I looked at it I thought if a guy would develop one load that shot...

I would appreciate if people can post pictures of grips used on S&W 686 2.5 & 3 " barrels. Thanks, WP

Does anyone carry a 686 3"? If so what grips and holster do you use? Pictures are appreciated. One last item those of you who carry a 686 short barrel do you remove the hammer spur? Thanks in advance for any suggestions you may offer. Bill/WP

I was able to pick up several like new S&W revolvers at a great price. However they do have the lock. Is the "plug" still sold? I've search this forum for where I think it would be advertised but no luck. Of course my wife says I can't find anything even if its right in front of me so my...

I'm looking for a nice carry revolver that is larger than a J frame. Probably a 38/357 although I will only fire 38 or 38+P. I'm considering 2 revolvers and am uncertain which one fits my needs better (conceal carry and easier to fire accurately than a S&W J frame). I've narrowed it down to...

Hi All, In my retirement I've been so busy having fun I've almost forgotten what a firearm looks like. Gees, I retired to have more shooting time and purchase more guns. So anyway I have a good collection of 1911's and BHP's. These have always been my favorites. Sure I've had revolvers but they...

I have 2 different questions (I hope this doesn't violate the rules). A friend wants to sell me his cherry S&W 19 4" with a factory RB. Does any have an idea what would be an honest prices to pay? (no box) Second I want to buy a 22 revolver. I know many people rave about Model 17, 18 but the...

This may not be the best forum to look for the complete bolt assembly for a Winchester 67A 22 rifle. But I've tried every else. I received this rifle from my father in 1952. Many years later it became my son's and now he wants to teach his son how to shoot using this old but wonderful rifle. I...
