In the name of "political correctness" some "leaders" would stand by and let the country be overrun. After all, we don't want to offend anyone, now do we? Actually, the threat of being shot, kidnapped, killed, or robbed by someone here illegally as a member of an ongoing criminal enterprise...

I've never seen primers like that on a pistol cartridge. They look almost like shotgun primers, but my eyes aren't what they used to be.

Nice piece! I think I would have it cut it where the port begins, so's it would fit in my pocket better. I like the finish and hammer.

I just put 150 rounds of umc through the Gk at the range today. Works fine.

Anybody else there might have put a couple holes in your target instead of theirs?

There may be circumstances that require carrying a small gun that can disappear into small spaces or pockets. My advice, carry the largest gun in the largest caliber that circumstances allow.

Good catch on the model 10. I have a 2" that used to belong to a USAF General officer and believe it or not, I have been able to hit a silouhette at 100 yards. Never more than 2 or 3 times out of a cylinder, but that gun is scary accurate. Some of the guys coming up now have never held a...

I, too appreciate the difference between day to day necessities and ammo. Ammo is only in that catagory if somebody feels they are in need of it to protect their life or the life of an innocent person.

I understand where you are coming from. I'm just living in the past, I guess. Value of an item is based on what someone is willing to pay. During times of "crisis", people who jack up prices on necessities such as food, water, and gasoline to take advantage of a short supply are looked upon...

I understand that times are tough, and supply is short. The only thing I have an issue with is the folks who had 6 million rounds in stock that they bought for 10 dollars a box that are now selling it for 90.00. Arguably that's how the free enterprise / capitalist system works, but it still...

I can vouch for the above comment. I was a medic in the inner city for a few years in my former life, and most of the folks who had Christmas cancelled were shot with whatever happened to be in the gun when it was stolen. I think the biggest concern with fmj for defensive purposes is as one of...

Yeah, I understand that things started to get crazy then, but I haven't needed to pick up anything since this "insanity" started. I guess that his suggestion that my stainless 3" 65-3 with factory DAO and bobbed hammer would retail for around 450.00 might have been a tad low as well?

Only takes once.

I was out for a ride and decided to stop by the gunshop where I have been doing business for over 25 years. The owner is a friend, and we have done many deals over the years. I literally stopped in my tracks when I saw the prices on ammo. 70.00 for a brick of imported .22 LR, 295.00 for a 300...

Looks like a .380

No, appendix carry is on the the strong side if you are right handed. If there were one perfect way to carry a gun, somebody would be rich holding the patent on the perfect holster. Every individual, every gun, and every situation is different. What works for me may not work for someone...

Page 397 of the Standard Catalog of Smith and Wesson lists the ".38 Special M&P Postwar and Models 10, 11, 12, 45, and Aircrewman" with a serial number range that yours falls into. The C prefix serial number is listed as "1948-1967 C1 - C999999". Doesn't narrow it down much, since they...

If you can shoot it effectively, there is nothing wrong with carrying a 4" as your primary self defense weapon. I prefer the 4" in the 5 O'clock position IWB. Less pokage up front than trying to carry appendix.

You need to turn yourself in....you stole that gun for 200.00! In my opinion, the model 10 in general is about the best platform out there. Nice find!!! Enjoy. Is it marked with an "N" under the grips? It looks to be a factory finish to my untrained eyes.

Just a thought, and something that we cover in classes. Women who carry guns in a purse are sometimes at a disadvantage, especially if they are the victim of a purse snatching. Also, women tend to put purses down in restaurants and other social venues, and many times leave them in a group at...
