    Should I spring for a letter? What do you think -- will a letter reveal anything of interest? I hate to fork out $75 just to learn an approximate manufacture date. Opinions, please... TIA, Tom

    Update Well, I made the leap and purchased this piece from Cabela's Gun Library. If you don't count my hour drive in both directions, and include the tax, it cost me just north of $600. Now that I actually have this revolver in my hands, I can provide some additional information -- along with...

    Couple of Questions for the Board (Vintage .32 HE)

    Hello, Folks, Couple of questions. I have had this nice .32 HE for a few years. Nice shape, except for what appears to be some holster wear and a lack of finish on the front half of the ~4-1/8" barrel, likely due to poor storage. Serial number is 248692. So here are my two questions: 1) How...

    Cut down? 2nd Model 44 HE

    Well, good news, bad news, and more bad news... Good news is that I finally have this revolver in hand, and that it works fine in single-action and is in general overall nice shape. Bad news is that the barrel has clearly been cut down, although nicely done. Measures very close to 4-5/16"...

    Cut down? 2nd Model 44 HE

    Would appreciate a year of manufacture for this SN 2265X revolver, along with opinions on whether or not the barrel has been cut down. (May have been done when the grips were replaced?) What would the original grips have looked like? TIA Tom

    Recommend a Good Top-Break Smith?

    I have an old S&W .38 top-break. I sent it off to David Chicoine to have some work done on it, and also to have a spare 6" barrel fitted to it. It all came back to me this week after a 1-1/2 year wait, but the work was not up to his usual standards. Is there another S&W smith out there that...
