I recently picked up a 1934 vintage 38/44 Outdoorsman. Function seemed normal when I picked it up at my FFL. I took it home and stripped it down for a good cleaning per usual for me. Sideplate off, remove everything, soak and clean. Polished up the rebound slide a little, other than that didn't...

I recently came into a very nice pre-war M&P Target. While cleaning the hammer in the midst of my usual look under the hood I felt something tiny fall through my fingers. Uh oh. The pin that secures the double action sear to the hammer was gone. An hour on hands and knees with a flashlight...

Easy transaction, responsive communication and prompt shipping. My revolver arrived exactly as described. I sometimes shy away from purchases on the opposite coast but this one was worth it.

I recently came into a really nice 48-2. I finally got around to giving it a thorough exam and cleaning and noticed that the serial number, 6K4939 is according to SCSW somewhere in 1974(?). The 48-2 arrived 1962, changed to 48-3 in 1967 and ran until the 48-4 in 1977. Based on the serial number...

Smooth transaction, extra pics on request appreciated. Would purchase from Ken again.

Easy transaction, prompt communication and shipping.

Received my package today, everything as advertised, a completely satisfactory transaction. Would not hesitate to buy from Rick again.

I have a first year (I think) Outdoorsman, #639,370. From the reading I have done including a recent thread here, the original front sight design featured a gold bead but was quickly revised to a silver (stainless?) bead. Mine has no bead at all, just a plain Patridge blade. I cannot see any...

About as smooth a transaction as you can get, great communication and quickly shipped. Would buy from Evan again.

I have a 1953 vintage K-22 in original gold box, there is an old price sticker pasted on one corner. Judging from the price on the sticker it was placed there decades ago. I would like to remove the old sticker without damaging the original box in the process. Anyone have an idea how to do that...

Our transaction did not go as either of us hoped, no fault of Lee's. Lee stepped up and made things right. Character counts. Thank you Lee for working to resolve things, it was a pleasure communicating with you.

Easy transaction, elk stag grips as advertised and arrived a day early!

Looking through my odds and ends stash I found a box of 255 gr. cast SWC bullets intended for a long ago departed .45 Colt. I have a good supply of .45 AR brass and a model 25 that hasn't had any exercise in a long while. I was finally able to score some LP primers, so far so good. The powders...

I have a 1979 vintage Toshiba tuner / amp, a 1990's vintage Sony CD player and some really nice Polk Audio speakers. I have a Dual turntable that sat unused for a couple decades until I finally got it up and running again. All good when playing CD's but when I play a vinyl album the left channel...

I have an old concrete slab patio, approx 12' x 18' that needs to be removed. I don't have any way to tow a compressor so thinking of renting an electric jackhammer. The one I'm looking at looks about the same size as the pneumatic models, I think it said 1 1/8" bits(?). This is not a small hand...

I just finished running a batch of .38 Special cases over the case mouth expander die. Somewhere during the process the adjustment changed and the case mouths are belled out to the point they will not fit into the bullet seating die. I was using RCBS Cowboy dies, there is no set screw on the...

Some helpful Bubba in the distant past decided my new-to-me, otherwise excellent Heavy Duty needed its lettering filled with gold. Both sides of the barrel, S&W logo, all of it including the serial number on the butt (S 73,313). I'm not a fan, I want it to look like Smith left it at the factory...

I recently bought a Heavy Duty Transitional variation, c. 1949 production as best I can tell. Upon disassembly for a good cleaning and look-see I noticed the rod missing from the rebound slide. The rod fits inside the rebound slide spring. The Kuhnhausen manual calls it the trigger stop rod and...

Does such a thing exist as a 5" model 14 or pre-model? My 3rd edition SCSW has but a single bullet point in the description: "premium for 5" " in the description. No other mention of this barrel length, 4", 6" only. I understand the 4" is a scarce item but they do exist. What about 5"? Thanks.

I'm not a big single action revolver enthusiast but I've always admired the Freedom Arms models. One of the features I've read that they have is a "line bored cylinder". I've gleaned that it is the process used to bore the chambers that ensures perfect alignment with the bore. What exactly is...
