Hello Forum - Would like to understand what the value of a Model 13-3 FBI issue might be. Any thoughts? Just would like to see what the value might be. Thanks, Mike.

Hello Forum - I have a S&W Pre-war 38/44 HD that was converted (not by me) to .41 caliber. The revolver's standard 38/44 HD cylinder has been bored to accommodate .41 Magnum length cartridges, and has been fitted with a S&W Model 57 barrel. Although I am (perhaps obviously) not inclined to use...

I came across (on Ebay) and ordered a Bucheimer holster for a Model 645 which advertised a barrel length of 4 inches. I originally thought that the Bucheimer brand was 'extinct' prior to the Model 645's introduction which I believe was in 1981. The holster fits my 645 perfectly, given the...

I'm looking for the Cimarron Arms 'Rooster Shooter' in 45 Colt. Please let me know if you have one you are willing to sell.

I'm looking for a Bucheimer pancake style right hand holster for a S&W Model 19 2 & 1/2 inch Combat Magnum. I believe that the holster model number is 01-604-52. I prefer a brown holster, but will consider one in black (although I'm not sure that this model was made in black). Must be in...

I have a nice LNIB (perhaps never fired) Model 58 nickel that I am looking to trade for an equally pristine blue or nickel Model 57 4". My needs are changing as I am moving into a hunting environment. Am willing to negotiate with established members. Please advise if you are interested. My...

My nickel plated Model 58 has always had the magna grips on it. The left half of the new after market grips I'm installing (Ahrends Retro Combat) have a speed loader cutout, and don't cover the same area the magnas did. There is a 'shadow' on the nickel where the magnas ended that is now...

Hello Forum - I am looking for two Safariland JN1 speedloaders - these were specified for the S&W Model 27/28, but are evidently no longer manufactured or available. If anyone has two they are willing to part with, I will purchase them for a reasonable price. Thanks, Mike

Hello Forum - Still looking to buy a nice set of N frame PC magna grips - please reply with condition and price - thanks much. Mike

Hello Forum - I am interested in your preferences for the Federal 125 +P Nyclad vs the 158 +P Nyclad in a Model 60. I understand that the 125 +P is sometimes recommended for the shorter barrel, but does the 158 grain +P in the 2" barrel provide any advantage? Thanks much. Mike99

When I logged on this evening, I was surprised to see an ad banner soliciting the signing of a petition against the concealed carry bill that is currently being discussed in Wisconsin. Although I understand both sides of the concealed carry issue, it seems odd to me that such an ad would be...

Dear Forum - This post refers to the same modified revolver I posed questions for in the 'Smithing' area - I have questions about the identity that you may be able to help with. The serial number (45157) and the smooth fore and back straps suggest a prewar heavy duty, but the top of the frame...

WTB - 4 inch barrel for 1934 vintage 38-44 Heavy Duty. Nickel preferred.

Hello Forum - Can anyone tell me whether a Pre model 23 38-44 6.5 inch barrel will fit a vintage 1934 38-44 heavy Duty? Also, does anyone have a 4 inch HD barrel they are willing to part with? Thanks, Mike.

Hello Forum - I recently purchased a model 60 vintage 1985 that was by all appearances ANIB with papers, etc. Upon further inspection, although it does appear to be in new condition, some apparent rough handling has caused a noticeable gap in the yoke to frame matchup as viewed from the front...

Hello Forum - I am looking for a mint pair of N frame PC magna grips. Please send photo and asking price. Thanks. Mike

Hello Forum - I have a pair of N Frame PC Magna grips on a Lew Horton Model 25-14 that have slight flaws north of the &W medallion. I believe these flaws can be readily eliminated with refinishing, which I hope that someone else is able to do, Does anyone have a pair of N Frame PC Magna grips...

Hello Forum - I have a S&W 645 (TAK serial number series) with a plastic mainspring housing. I am interested in acquiring a metal housing if such a thing is available. Can anyone advise whether a metal housing is available? Thanks. Mike

Hello all - I recently acquired a model 13-3. The box label bears a product code of 100303 and lists the features as 'special'. My SCSW3 does not list this product code for the model 13 - just wondering if anyone has come across this variation. Thanks to all. Mike

I was under the impression that the model 13 round butt was only configured with the 3 inch barrel - how rare is the model 13 round butt with a 4 inch barrel?
