Thanks Jeppo

39-2 hole I have been away from the computer since I posted the question. I've asked a friend to post a pic for me since I cant figure out how to do so. Thank all of you for your replies but unless it was a steel string I don't see the string theory possible It takes quite a bit of pressure to...

I have 3 model 39-2 pistols. One was made in early 1972 and it has a pin hole in the hammer .The other 2 do not . Why was the pin hole put in the hammer? What is the purpose for it?

When I worked for Durham NC PD I saw a guy get shot from 25 yards away. The HP round hit the victim in the throat. The bullet went thru the neck hitting the spinal cord killing him instantly. Don't underestimate the power of the 25 acp

First handgun S&W model 19-3 4 inch P&R . Have had it since 1970 . First of many Smith's and still have it

Thanks for the reply. But I have never sold a NIB firearm for less than I paid for it and not going to start now. I'll keep it and leave it the one of my grandkids. Or shoot the darn thing.

I have a new in the box 50th anniversary mod 29-10 that's never had the cylinder turned except at the factory. I was wondering what the value would be if I wanted to sell it. My health is not what it use to be and I'm thinking that I need to start liquidating my collection of S&W revolvers. Any...

which one I bought a nickel 36 at the end of last year for $350, looked brand new. 28's are upwards of $650 and higher in my area. My 2 cents would be get the pre 28.

magazines I have a minimum of 6 for each semi-auto that I own. That's not just S&W handguns. Sigs, Colts, Browning & Springfield. Most of my 1911 mags are interchangeable within the brands. I have over 30 mags for them.

storage for Holsters I have 2 large plastic totes .One for Kydex and the other one for leather holsters. I have several that are shoe box size to hold spare pistol magazines . I have two cigar boxes that house my loaded speed loaders.

primers I have been stock piling all primers for the last 4 or 5 years . I have amassed close to 80,000 .....25,000 being SPP ,25,000 LPP and 15,000 SRP and 15,000 LRP. Most of my purchases have been Winchester, some Federal and about 5000 SPP are CCI magnum primers. Now all I need are bullets...

60 Do you know when the dash 1 came out .

I recently purchased an older model 60 with not dash serial no starts AVE3xxx. Curious as to mfg date .

I have a Colt light weight commander and a S&W E series bobtail. The S&W to me is a better shooter than the Colt hands down. I personally like the fish scales and the 2 tone finish. I also have another Commander series 70 brushed nickel If I could have just one of them it would be the Smith

I carry a 340 PD with 125 gr JHP. I don't worry about the recoil. All I am concerned with is that I hit the threat and that he stops. I generally shoot about 10 to 20 rounds at each range session. It is my back up when I am in uniform.

Can anyone tell me when S&W started putting Red ramps in front sights?

ported Glocks Well that's not so .I have a 23c and a gen 2 17c.I also know several of my friends that have ported Glocks. I have fired at least 2000 rounds out of the 23c and nothing has gotten in my eyes or burned me anywhere. The blasts do not go strait up, they go out in 45 degree angles...

I have owned two standard S&W Shields in 9mm. I really hated the triggers. So rather than pay to get better trigger I just traded one and sold the other. I tried out the P/C model at LGS and I was sold. As far as the porting goes I can't really tell the difference. I own 4 other handguns that at...
