    Looking where to buy a S&W model 986

    I gave up after several months of checking wholesalers, started watching Gunbroker, and finally snagged a factory new 986 for 50 bucks over wholesale price. Same story on a model 929 and equally good price from Gunbroker. It doesn't look like S&W will make another run of either of these guns...

    current gun market

    I think you missed the point I intended to make. Short term ups and downs will occur for a variety of reasons, but history says prices for guns of reasonable quality, have ALWAYS increased, and will continue to increase over the LONG TERM. Pick any quality firearm you like and review market...

    current gun market

    Except for the occasional shortage, hoarding, and price gouging, guns will increase in price as they have done since the first Chinese began trading their crossbows for hand cannons at their local cannon shop. Doesn't matter if it's new, used, shooter grade, or collector grade....The rate of...

    581 price check

    The 581 is not exactly plentiful, most were heavily used, and a NIB condition 581 is not easy to come by. A beat up shooter can be found in the $450-500 range and I would consider a new condition 581 a steal at $600.

    Gun show etiquette, ethics and manners...

    Many of the gun shows are struggling to survive for a variety of reasons..insurance internet, local laws, etc., etc. I don't like the intrusion of the flea market stuff, but others are buying enough to keep them coming back, so somebody likes it. If that's what it takes to keep the shows open, I...

    VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL FOR DRILL PRESS

    Depends on how much effort and money you want to invest. Some have been using the small 2-2&1/2 HP DC motors and 110 volt controls from scrapped tread mills to add variable speed control to small machine tools. Several ways to do it....check google and youtube.

    S&W Straight Line grips

    Need a reasonably nice left grip panel for a S&W Straight Line single shot pistol, or would consider buying a matched pair if the price isn't too scary.

    Uberti vs Henry

    I only have the rimfire Henry's, and no problems whatsoever. When the "reviews" are good for both, and only one is American made, is it really a difficult choice?

    Clint Smith article

    For defensive purposes, Smith's opinion of DA/SA use is probably good advice, but not a universal axiom for all handgun use. As far as his opinion of the "average shooter", he may well be pretty accurate there, also. Once outside our typical circle of folks who shoot on a regular basis and...
