Anyone know if a standard 9mm 1911 magazine will work in a Lama? There is an on line auction selling quite a number of Jordanian military Lama 9mm, but no magazines are included. They look to be pretty close to 1911 design. These look to be going for minimal prices and may be well worth it if...

I just received the notice that my favorite range, (a key club private range I have belonged to for 40 years) has been shut down. The original owner passed away and his daughter and son in law took it over. They had done some nice changes, fixing up the bench rests, adding larger expanses of...

Has anyone used this powder yet? I just picked some for a trial. I did go to the Hodgdon website and did select a "Load" I want to use, (for local trap & skeet leagues). A 1 oz of #8 shot, and a 1235 fps using STS hulls and Claybuster wads. It looks like a # 25 Mec bushing should throw that...

Last Sat. auction by Will Sullivan Auction, Firearms & Militaria Auctions - Will Sullivan Auction Co. . There were about 62 S&W's, including 38/44 HD, Pre 27 3.5", 4 629's, 7 686's, a 631 Target, and a whole lot more. A lot of them with box, and some unfired, NIB (from a wholesaler that...

Here in the Midwest, my feeders have suddenly become vacant. Looks like they are on their long flight to Mexico/S America for the winter. Is this somewhat earlier than usual?

Looking at a Mod "Correction, Mod 57", with a pinned barrel, but with an "N" s/n. Thinking this may still be eligible for C&R, which would be a ship date prior to 7/74.

Please see this 38 Spec head stamp. Does anyone know what the S&W-F ("F") represents?

Mod 60, 4", 650 38/44 Heavy, 4", 475 34-1, 4", 475 29-3, 6', 850 K22 (rough), 6", 350 29-3 Silhouette, 10 5/8", 1200 27-2, 6", 950 16-4, 6", 1200 460XVR, 8 7/8", 900 41, 7", 650 I thought most of the prices were a little on the low side. Perhaps reflecting the current economy. Auction...

Just saw an article where Jerry Miculek was using this gun to set some kind of new record. It was described as a .327 Magnum, 8 round, with a red dot mounted. It mentioned that they planned to build for sale maybe 1500 of these.Good luck looking for one. Probably won't hit the distributors...

I finally got a picture taken of my 617-6 with the updates I had done. I have really enjoyed the 10 shot revolver, then put the red dot on it, and finally some grips that really fit my hand. Some complain about the newer (with lock) revolvers, but this one has been no problem, and equal to the...

Been loading for about 40+ years so it was bound to happen some time. A load 38 Special, Hornady 135 Gr Jacketed over 5.5 Gr Accurate #5. A mild plinking load. Was loaded up maybe 10 years ago. Had two guns with me just burning up this ammo, Mod 60 stubby, and a Mod 15 2" stubby. Load...

Had a new knee done on Thursday. Surgery at 7:45, 9:30 to recovery, 10:30 to room, 1:30 p, to home. Just a little over 6 hours. This was a total replacement. Everyone told me this Doc was good so I guess he was. Day2: On a combination of pain meds to gradually reduce the potent ones and...

I know there are replacement triggers made by Clark, Tandemcross, and (The one from up in Iowa, can't recall name at this moment). Has anyone formed a preference of which one produces the best, smooth, light, target trigger. Also, which one is the easiest to install. Thanks in advance.

My wife takes care of all the decorating for our church. She has a committee of a dozen or so, and sends out emails for work days,and with Easter coming needs to send out several notices for work days. She last month sent out the group email (using a group listing in Outlook). Only about 3 or...

Having noticed several discussions about .32 caliber revolvers lately, I decided to thin out my supply of bullets I am not using. 1. Speer 98 Gr. HBWC .314, approximately 571 (by weight not counted). Current cost I see (but not available) is $103.99 P/1000. (.104 cents each). I'll sell for...

Antique Firearm Assembly and Disassembly by David Chicoine, Autographed copy. Paperback 2005 edition. 98%+ condition. When I found the only copies available like this were selling for $99.90 (Amazon) to $124.50, I decided other members could put this to better use as I am no longer into the...

After witnessing a Mod 63-1 selling for $1200 at a gun show yesterday, I was wondering about pricing for a 34-1. Same basic firearm, difference being Stainless vs Blued. I know, posts need pictures.

A close friend has a Mod 41 that he bought back in the 80's and it was always a 100% functional tack driver. He drifted away from shooting, and the gun was set aside for over 20+ years. He recently got it out and it will not shoot but 1 or 2 rounds, then the hammer evidently follows the slide...

It's that time of year. We've had corded leaf blowers for many years, but looking at cordless. I've heard good things about Ego brand. Can't seem to find real specs, (weight, is it multi speed or dialed variable?) How long do batteries take to recharge? We have small yard but a couple of...

I may have the opportunity to possibly buy a Pre Mod 16, and a Pre 36 Target. The Pre 16 is a 5 screw, 6 rib backstrap, S/N 66080, which is kind of between the numbers in the SCSW4. I'm guessing the date at 1948. Condition is near new. Very Very faint turn line, no marks on recoil shield...
