Does anyone know where I can find a couple of lanyards for my 1917's.

Sir, I sent you a message on a set of grips that might fit your Chief. Best regards, the toolman.

I have read over the years about reflocking the inserts that the wood cases have inside them. I find myself in need of having this done to one of my cases, it looks like it has been ravaged by mice. The insert is fine, so reflocking the pieces is in order. Only I can't find any reference to...

hammer block It's a 25-2 Would you happen to have a spare, or can you tell me where to find one. Best regards, the toolman

I was trying to find out why my Mod. 25 had quite a hitch in the last few thousands of movement while single action cocking. I removed the grips, loosened the mainspring screw, and removed the side plate. Without the sideplate on the action was smooth as a babys bottom. Strange I thought...

That design was already old. Most percussion locks had this feature.

Does anyone know if Lee makes a crimp die for the .445 Webley.

I want to purchase a Parker Hale tang sight for the 310 Martini. If you have one in your parts box and want to sell, please send me a PM. Best regards, the toolman.

I found a 6" 32/20 that needs a lot of help, and I would like to do just that. It has been abused for over a hundred years, but is still saveable. It's been overly polished with dished screw holes, and hot blued over scratches. It had a bulged barrel and some one cut the barrel and drilled...

I'm an old guy that likes projects! I am also an engraver, would love to refinish the old girl and engrave it! Please don't part it out, I have refinished some really beat up pieces, one that had taken a tumble down cement stairs! It can be done if one has the time! We could make it a...

Well I solved my problem this morning. I removed the ejector rod and chucked it up in my lathe. A dial indicator said it has about .010 runout. Some applied pressure and I got it down to .003, just couldn't get it to be closer to 0. Man they are hard to bend, I am sure I was bending it over...

I found a nice, well not quite nice, 38/44 that I could repair a bit , for a reasonable price. It had a bit of ham handed damage to it but otherwise looked like it had not been used too much. Some one had taken a file to the backstrap and removed someone's name or such. It had been drawfiled...

Second Mod. .455 Hondo, I have another .455 for your information. It's a second model, number 21273 shipped to the Canadian Government in Ottawa on October 14, 1915. It's in very good shape and unmessed with. A bit of blue missing but about 90 %. It is marked .455 on the left side of the...

I finely found what fit the Idaho Leather Co. holster. It is a Police positive special made in 1922. Of course it was the last one I tried. The holster is a dark blood red with the white lacing, long turned to a cream brown color. I think the Ubanks holster business was sold in about 1939...

I have tried both a Colts and K frame Smith's, they fit perfect but nether allow the snap to close. The angle of the grips cause the snap to be misalined by about 5/8 of an inch out. I have a short Security Six, will have to dig it out for a try.

I found a box of holsters that I had forgotten that I had when put them away a number of years ago. There is a almost unused Idaho Leather Co. full flap holster with basket weave pattern. I have tried to find out what gun fits in it. No luck on the internet. A six inch K frame S&W almost...
