    Extended safety for my Shield 2.0

    I have a S&W M&P Shield 2.0 with the manual safety. The stock S&W safety is virtually unusable. So I found a source who sold me a TIG-welded extended safety. Now that safety looks and functions exactly as the safeties on my Compact-sized Smiths. FYI, Brian Beard<[email protected]>...

    Remember those deployed during the holiday season

    I've experienced nothing lonelier than being deployed to a far-away, remote outpost, for a year at a time, with no face-to-face human contact save the 20 men with whom I was deployed. This was especially so during a holiday period. I've done that twice. The valuable tactic I employed was...

    Methods of Payment for Weapon Sales

    I'm considering "thinning my heard" of revolvers, and may try to sell them on the S&W Forum (a better chance that they'll go to a good home). I'm curious: how do weapon-selling Forum members receive payment from buyers? I ask because I abandoned my PayPal membership (for political reasons) a...

    Information about S&W Model 25-8 revolver.

    I'm considering the purchase of a Model 25-8 - a 4" stainless revolver chambered in .45 ACP. I'd like technical info, why the Model 25-8 was built, and in what configurations was it sold (i.e., square butt? round butt? both? What grips came standard. Etc.) Thanks for any info you can provide.

    S&W Model 69 - square or round butt?

    I just bought a "NIB" Model 69 (SKU 10064) on GunBroker. Gun is in transit, and likely won't arrive at my FFL until mid- to late- next week. I'm not in love with the appearance of the stock grips...they may be ok functionally, but I always like to have a "pretty" set. In this case, that other...

    matteekay is an A+

    Just competed a purchase transaction with member matteekay. The Hogue moon clip holders were exactly as he described. My cash to Matt "passed in the mail" with his package to me. Good to deal with honest folks. Thanks, Matt.

    Anyone buy from Gunsclan.com?

    While online shopping for wheel guns, I came across this site: HomePage - Guns Clan. They have a very interesting assortment of new guns for sale, and generally at what appears to be close to wholesale prices. So I wonder whether they are buying guns from "stores in distress." [FYI...

    S&W M&P C 45acp and 10mm magazines interchangeable?

    I recently bought an M&P Compact 10mm. S&W (and all retailers) has zero, none, nada 10mm magazines for sale. And they won't say when they will have them. In the meantime, I recently read that S&W's 45acp M&P 2.0 C magazine can be used in S&W's 10mm Compact. Certainly, the 10mm and 45acp...

    Conversion barrel for 4" M&P 2.0 - .40S&W to .357Sig

    Here's a link to the KKM Precision webpage in which KKM claims it has two M&P Compact conversion barrels to make a 4" .40cal S&W into a .357 Sig - one that has suppressor threads and the other a "plain Jane" barrel. Compact (4.00") | KKM (kkmprecision.com) M&P Compact 2.0 .357Sig (4.0″ Model)...
