    Any Other Miculek Grip Enthusiasts Out There?

    In 1996, Jerry explained that you pick up a gun, you don't have the perfect grip. The slick grip allows him to pick up the weapon, start shooting and adjust the grip and he continues shooting. Whereas a checkered grip or composite grip makes the adjustment more difficult. Also, Jerry has a...

    Smolt

    Jim Clark, founder of Clark Custom Guns, built the first SMOLT, or one of the first. Jim had a close working relationship with Smith and Wesson and a very good working relationship with Colt. Consequently, he had ready access to parts to assemble the original Smolt. Which I believe was the...

    S&W 629-2 or -3 Mountain Gun

    Keep and open mind, I have a 629-4 with a thin barrel, non-fluted cylinder and a factory ported barrel. I love the way it handles and shoots. Keep shopping and you will find something that fits your requirements. Stay with the older stuff, pre lock.

    Thin-slotted screw

    Quote" My opinion...... If you own guns, invest in a proper set of Gun-smithing Screwdrivers from Brownells. What they call their "Law Enforcement magnetic Handle" is the best handle option, IMO. their Magnatip line is TOPS! Standard screwdrivers, even the premium Snap-on, Mac and other quality...

    329 PD Question

    Is there a difference between an older 329 PD and a rather new production 329 PD? I am a serious buyer and I am seeing a difference in prices where the older serial numbers are bringing more money.

    Cabela's

    Cabela's in Allen, Tx is a nightmare when buying a gun. I went in 2 months ago wanting to buy a gun and waited 40 minutes for a salesperson to sell it to me. He shows up and acts like he is doing me a favor showing me anything. I left after he told me it would be 1.5 to 2 hour checkout. 3...

    smith 15-3 correct grips?

    what are the correct grips for a model 15-3, Serial No, 5K467xx? The revolver is outstanding but it came with rubber grips. I think the previous owner kept the grips considering the sale price.

    Marlin 60?

    In my opinion, they are a great plinker rifle that withstands some abuse and keep on ticking. I inherited my father-in-laws old Model 60 truck gun in 1990. The rifle experienced little use and no cleaning. It still works fine today.
