A few eeks back I posted about my latest find, a Model 14 No Dash that Mike Helms said shipped in April 1959. As you experts on this site pointed out it came to me with a real nice set of PC Magna, non diamond, rounded bottom stocks. I had seen that in the store so offered less $ because of...

Since announcing this Manson reamer and tap handle loaner program on April 20, 2025 we have been able to help some 20 Members successfully ream their S&W 22's and literally ALL Members have reported that new ammo and fired casings "fall in and fall out" without any undue force on the ejector...

I posted this Model 14 no dash (April 1959 per Mike Helms) a couple weeks ago and yes...it came to me with PC Magna's that you experts determined from the serial number were probably a 1973 D prefix K Frame like a Model 10-5, etc. So I went searching for some period correct, diamond around the...

Hello Forum, yesterday I posted pics and questions about my latest find, a 99% Model 14 no dash, confirmed by Mike Helms to have shipped in April 1959. The gun is great and all original except for the grips which are PC Magna's that experts identified as K Frame probably circa 1973 from a D...

Couple weeks ago (July 12) I was out of town and stumbled onto a K38 Heavy Masterpiece confirmed shipping in September 1950. You experts were really helpful at helping me identify and correctly describe that gun.....which is a super sweet shooter. Now yesterday I am out and about checking my...

Hello Forum, I am way out of town and away from all my gun stuff for a week but wouldn't you know it...a chance stop in a off the path small town pawn shop to check on a guitar in the window and dang there is a K 38 6" blue 3T's sitting in the case at a decent price. I took some pics, some cash...

So my son called the other day and said "hey pop...got the day off, want to hit the range?" Of course the worst day at the range is better than the best day mowing the lawn so I packed up my range bag with my M&P 2.0 Compact and several boxes of 9mm FMJ, several splatter targets and off we went...

The program is really flying. I just moments ago shipped out the two (2) Manson reamers, with tap handle and instructions to #8 and # 9 on the list so we are more than halfway through the original list of Members who wanted to finish ream their 22's. Both reamers show absolutely no signs of...

So....I know...I know....I have been told numerous times by you know who that when I go into a LGS for anything, that I am NOT to linger, loiter, drool or otherwise occupy myself at the "used revolver" counter............BUT...........No one around, obviously bored clerk, fantastic plastic at...

**** Just found out that USPS Small Box Priority Mail is $10.65 anywhere in domestic USA so seems a shame to send only the Manson Reamer, but the lady at the post office cautioned AGAINST using small padded envelopes as they run through the high speed sorters and she thought too delicate for...

Please see my post #12 replying to Pete D (Narragansett) post titled "My 22's Just Got Reamed" that he posted yesterday (04-15-2025) at 4:55pm. Nobody has the Manson reamer in stock and I hear the price even if they have one is outrageous, so I am offering to send mine to any Forum member in...

04/24/25 Huge price drop! I need to move these guns along so I'm dropping to a real good deal as all are complete packages. These are shipped and insured prices. For sure better than GB or your LGS. All Forum rules apply, and these are listed on the Members Only Forum over on S&W.org Model 745...

Have 4 S&W revolvers for sale and a Browning Hi-Power. All Forum rules apply, first "I'll take it" followed by PM with your contact info gets it. These are also for sale over on the private Forum too. The 22-32 HFT and the 1899 US Army are C&R so I can ship directly to you if you hold a valid...

Ok...OK...OK.... yes...I am very biased. My youngest daughter just passed her 10 year "on da job" mark with State LEO Agency. She had a "special" qualifications over five days last week while it was bitter cold and temps really dropped for the nighttime shoots (with stress factors....lights...

I thought about posting in the ammo sub-forum, but this is really a gun question. I have a pre-war II 32 Hand Ejector (I think....have a ship date question in for Roy on the other Forum) and anyway I now would dearly love to shoot this guy but a ammo issue has arisen at least for me. So for...

I posted a couple weeks ago with some questions on these 32 Long revolvers and got some good answers....enough for me to grab a estate sale gun from non-gun folks. The backstory was it was grandfathers gun but no one remembered him ever shooting it. Given to the father when grandad passed and...

Snagged a nice complete package on Model 29-2, 6-1/2", 44 Magnum with accessories also complete. Wooden presentation case (Type 4) with blue flocking mostly intact, SAT, mop and cleaning rod, and all documents underneath the fitted bottom (parts list, holster, ammo ads, warranty card, original...

Hello Forum; I would appreciate it if any of you have the firearm listed and its red clamshell box. I do not know many particulars and could not obtain any pics, but I did handle the gun and checked the usual mechanical items. It is tight, clean crisp bore and I believe it to be a Model 31...

So...........been 5 years since wife and I were able to get out of Virginia to out-of-state daughters for visits due to our really old and sick cocker spaniel. The dog passed away in September and we have not found another yet. So...decided to visit daughter who is a university professor in...

Ran across the attached Holster fit chart that was in some paperwork I was looking through yesterday. I know we have a bunch of true experts in "holstorian" type info on this Forum, so I apologize in advance if you folks have seen this chart before. I don't know the date of the flyer but it was...
