  1. 444 Magnum

    Fred Astaire with a nickel HE, with pearl grips!

    It's revealed at 1:25 into the clip and then he puts it back in his jacket.

    S&W Letter question.

    Every letter that I've received when purchasing a firearm still has the original name and address on them except for one. It was marked over. One man, when he handed me three letters, simply asked me not to post his name and address online. I don't see that it's a big deal either way. Your...

    Think I got the stocks right for 1959....opinions solicited please

    Charlie, that is a very pronounced ridge/transition just above the right side logo on your target set. I've never seen any like that. Are they factory and are there other factory targets like that? I've only seen one's like this with a more gradual taper.

    MOP grips

    I just bought these on an auction site. I haven't received them. I basically bought a pig in a poke hoping they're something. I read on the forum that the medallions were introduced in 1894. Can anyone tell me what they might be from this one picture? Factory? Real MOP? Age? Models they fit? Any...

    Pawn shops Are Great Places To Shop

    I use a local pawn shop for FFL transfers. ...they seem to want to treat potential buyers like the folks that come in to pawn a coffee maker for drug money. One employee was treating me like a pawn shop customer and I corrected him very loudly in front of the owner's daughter. He wasn't there...

    What decade are these grips?

    Just got these grips from the Bangor Punta era. Any idea what decade- 70's or 80's? Thanks for any help.

    What's for dinner?

    Eating healthy tonight (and tomorrow night). Chicken stir fry with a whole bunch of veggies, water chestnuts, a sauce mixture I made, and some pineapple jiblets. My stir fry sauce is a creation of my mind including soy sauce, red wine, cinnamon, honey, garlic and a few other things. It's...

    Need advice for how to sue an insurance company for home hail damage

    46 squares is larger than average. Not seeing your roof and not knowing what type roofing was installed, I don't have a formal comment, but $739/square really raises my eyebrows and curiosity.

    Need advice for how to sue an insurance company for home hail damage

    I'm a residential contractor and I've done quit a bit of insurance repair/replacement work over the years after the tornado and hurricanes that swept through our area. Golphin makes several good points as he knows the business. My observations: -What type of roof? I don't see that mentioned in...

    N frame target grips

    1952-1958. Most that I've seen were walnut but I think GA was also used. Others will be along with more information and help with the date. Pictures would help in identifying the type of wood.

    What gun are you on the lookout for?

    This is why I don't respond to the WTB ads. I frequently have items people are looking for and I'm willing to let them go for a fair price to both parties based on current market conditions; but, after pm's back and forth, digging it out, taking and sending pics, and then the inevitable low ball...

    Squirrels raising havoc on the bird feeders

    I think Phat Gus belongs in a Phrying pan. ;):ROFLMAO:

    N frame target diamond no cut stocks?

    Very good price. I think if you just buffed them with bronze wool to knock off the sheen that they would look fine. I've done that with gun stocks that were varnished.

  16. 444 Magnum

    Jack Nicklaus

    For you golfers who know how improbable this shot is. This was 15 years ago and is not AI. Johnny Miller says "yeah, show me how to do it..." So he did. Jack's caddy saw it coming. I love the casual way Jack just walks over and schools Johnny. I don't think he could do it twice but the...

    Need Help To DI This Assisted Opening Knife

    What I can find online is that it is a knife imported from China or Taiwan in the 1990's. Here's one that sold that had HD advertising on it. https://www.allaboutpocketknives.com/catalog/60994-nos-harley-davidson-folding-blade-pocket-knife-belt-sheath My father had several 'generic' Chinese...

    What's for dinner?

    Beanie weenie with sweet Vidalia onion (they're in season). Not fancy, but delicious all the same.

    Picking Up an Early Combat Magnum Tomorrow

    Like Marlin...no records from 1906-1939? :unsure::LOL: or Winchester...1906-1940's are sketchy. No records on the collectible rimfires. I would love to be able to pull records on some of my less common Model 61 variations. Not a single record available for any of these....just year of manufacture.

    S&W K-22

    Those look great. They separate your pistol from the pack. Very nice. As I stated in my PM to you, once the original numbered magnas are gone, they can't be replaced and your pistol was manufactured before target grips were introduced. I faced a similar decision on this pre27 (it had...
