    Checking value K38 and more…

    Hi all Wanted to follow up on this post. I just sold it this weekend, locally for a smidge over $500, so favorable to some expectations which I’m happy about. I was sad to let it go, but I do need to bring things down a little and I have a nice M19 6”, that never got used because it was so...

    Which spotting scope for 100-200yd target shooting?

    I’m another Konus scope fan. I have the Konus 100, 20-60x100 and I can see everything very clearly at our 300 yd range, down to 22 caliber. Mine cost a little more than $200 about 15 years ago, and current prices look to be about 300, so still a reasonable balance of utility and price. I do...

    Checking value K38 and more…

    Hi all, As part of a downsizing effort in our lives, I’m going to be parting ways with 2 S&W revolvers (and a couple of others). Looking to get an idea of values so i can start to write up the sale ads. 1. K38 I believe this is the Masterpiece, bought it used a few years ago. Pretty worn grips...

    Anyone near central NC with a 22 revolver reamer?

    After the range test, the results were like night and day. Rounds dropped right in, they didn’t before with any ammo, and ejected easily again and again. One chamber got a little sticky - after about 150 rounds through it, but that’s no biggie compared to the ‘before’. Accuracy was still still...

    Anyone near central NC with a 22 revolver reamer?

    I have to thank Marylander, who was very generous and gracious to offer to either lend me the reamer or do the procedure for me. I opted to send him the cylinder and he quickly turned it around and he wouldn’t even let me pay the return postage. A quick plunk test showed rounds dropping in...

    Anyone near central NC with a 22 revolver reamer?

    Is there anyone near the NC area (I'm in Charlotte) who has a 22 revolver finish reamer that would let borrow/rent it, or allow me to travel so we can put ito use on my M17? In an earlier thread, I lamented my M17 with tight chambers. After going down the cleaning and mild polishing avenues, I...

    Considering selling 686 4”

    Thanks for responses to my requested info, and the insights and perspectives leaning toward giving it a little bit more of a chance. I am not in a rush, don't need the money, running out of room, etc. I'll give it a little bit of time, maybe put on something smaller and give it another whirl...

    Considering selling 686 4”

    Thanks Patriot! That’s about where I expected to be. It’s a really nice revolver but like I said, just too big for us. Have a great day!

    Considering selling 686 4”

    Hi forum! I’m thinking of thinning the herd and the first item I’m looking at is a stainless 686 4” that was passed down by my father in law. We have a few from him with meaning, but this is just a modern gun he had. I’ve got small hands, the wife’s are smaller so this just won’t get used. No...

    Help for a 19-4 with Stuck Casings

    Im certainly not smarter than those that inhabit these environs, but when I needed to really clean a cylinder, I've put a cleaning brush on a short section of cleaning rod and put in a cordless drill. Then spun it on relatively slow speed in each chamber to get it squeaky clean. I used nylon...

    S&W Victory -good deal?

    Ha!. For the win. lol. I'd be after it just for a shooter, but if it had other intrinsic features making it possibly easier to sell later (IF I ever went there), would be a bonus. I'll see what the seller says in his reply. There's a show locally this weekend so maybe that itch will get...

    S&W Victory -good deal?

    Howdy gents: Local online forum has an ad for a S&W M&P .38 special for sale. I don't know much about them. I'm looking for a solid 38 to use as a range gun and to keep bedside, as the wife doesn't like the more complicated manual of arms autoloaders have. Plus I always want another S&W wheel...
