I received your PM, but don't seem to be able to respond in the normal manner. Thanks for the consideration.

I'm in search of a recessed Model 57 cylinder, preferably with a nickel finish. Thanks.

Thanks to all for the input. I guess I'll search for a used part for a while, and lacking success, let Smith and Wesson put a current cylinder on.

I recently acquired a Model 57. While shooting with it last week, I noted that one of the fired cases could only be ejected with some difficulty. The same difficulty exhibited on the next two reloads. Taking measurements of the fired cases indicates that charge hole was bored out of round and...

1971. I still use that old RCBS press.

I've only put about 400 rounds of AR through my Mountain gun, but they worked well and shot well.

Sometimes you just have to tip your cap to an incredible athlete.

We are a nation of over 300,000,000 people. Nationwide, there are around 500,000 in law enforcement. If we never ate another donut, took vacation, attended training classes or were actually on another call, the math don't work well.

Out of the academy, we were issued Remington 870s, save for one who got a Winchester model 12. I carried a Ruger M77 in .257 Roberts in the trunk.

I would be interested to know if the round which caused the explosion had been cycled through the magazine more than once. We have noticed deep seating of bullets in rounds cycled twice. We all know that ain't good.

I've had that said of me also. But then the gun shop guy says, "After all, his first duty gun was an 1851 Colt Navy".

A Ruger Security Six from the Marine Corp Recruit Depot in San Diego. A buddy and I were learning to reload then, and that gun covered up a mistake or two.

You can use the autobid function, and set the highest you are willing to go.

I'm siding with the Model 27 crowd, but I'm not parting with my 624 or 629.

Thanks to all for your input on this thread. I did not know any of this until reading the forum last night. As a result, I called S&W just now to check on my recently purchased 624. It's okay, so I'm pretty happy now. Thanks again.

Glauber's in Carrolton, Ky. has a limited supply of Federal match small pistol primers as late as yesterday afternoon. And, much to their credit, they are not gouging. $34.99 per thousand. Good folks.

I guess I'd rather be sued by a manufacturer than explain to an Officer's widow or orphaned children why I didn't address an equipment issue that I had any knowledge of. My first responsibility is to my Officers. As much as I like and enjoy my Smith and Wesssons, they are just another vendor as...

Well if we get second and third choices, and speaking of Jimmy Stewart, I always liked the Cheyenne Social Club.

I have to vote with Waldo. I watch that movie at least twice a year. "They, they,, who the **** is they? Railroad men, bounty hunters, Deke Thornton".

I think you did well. Those are just neat old reliable guns. I have one in four inch that I took to the range Sunday. I enjoy shooting it as much as any other handgun I own.
