I would like to be the next owner of this: S&W 2 blade jack knife, $15 shipped Thanks Scott

A gun like this just exudes class. Put together by a real shooter that knew what he wanted.

Stu, Thanks for the picture. That is very close to what I have in mind. Great sight picture but only about 1/8" higher than fixed and a rounded corner blade to boot. Could you post a picture of the other side. Tired Gunsmith, I have seen references to King doing work like what you are talking...

I don't see the "jam" screws as a issue. It would work just like the early s&w adjustable sights. The way I envision the install is: 1. Locate and drill a clearance hole for the diameter of the blade barrel. 2. enlarge that hole and tap 1/4 the thickness of the frame from each side. 3...

Has anyone ever taken a adjustable sight s&w blade and installed it in a fixed sight gun? It looks to me that opposing screws from each side could be used to move the blade for windage. The top strap trough could be widened, providing a extremely low profile, sharp sight for my eyes(which are...

I am looking to buy something like the Craig Spegel boot grip for a square butt J frame. Thanks Scott

I'm looking for something nice for my kit gun with a square butt. Something like what Craig Spegel makes. What do you have laying around looking for a new home? Scott

I don't know what you paid for that now but imagine how expensive $44.00 was at the height of the depression. An ounce of gold was $35.00 .

As others have stated, use this as an opportunity to upgrade to variable speed. I have bought 1 motor/vfd combo from these guy's when "the smoke came out" of my Taiwan mill, a VFD for my 3 phase South Bend lathe and several VFD's for work. They are great people to deal with. Motor and Drive...

Those grips are crazy cool! It looks like a stylized fish mouth with the emblem for a eye. If the engraving is factory, it would seem that the grips had to be commissioned at the same time and that the engraving followed the lines laded out by the grips. Outstanding. I hope you can find the...

I'm interested to know if the fixed rear sight has been altered in any way to accommodate the wider front sight. If so, I would sure like to see a picture of it. Verrrry cooool!

I'm not sure if you are talking about a L.C.Smith or a J. Stevens double barrel, but surely you don't intend to hot blue those barrels

Jim, I think you are right on the front sight base height. However, there is no dovetail. This gun is strictly a shooter but I want it to look of the period. What front sight(and where can I get one) would you suggest to be paired with a wondersight? Scott

455 ammo I have a lathe so I can modify existing cases if need be. I want 100 and prefer to buy, but will do what needs to be done. I'm so busy with family and work issues it will be a while before it all gets sorted out but I think it will be a lot of fun.

Front sight or lack there of As you can see from the picture, someone filled off the front sight. My thought was to use a period correct blade sight after slotting the base and pinning it in place. What would you suggest? I plan on pairing the front sight with a reproduction "wondersight".

sights This is my other issue with this gun and it is a big one. The only modification on this revolver is the front sight. My idea is to slot it and use a period Sheard combined with a reproduction Wondersight. My intention is not to try and pass anything off but to build something fun to...

I've just bought this lovely(about 85%+ original blue with a great bore) .455 and am looking forward to getting it shooting. It is extensively proof marked and has a unshaved cylinder. I saw that Hornady and Fiocchi had ammo. Well, now that I have it in hand I can't locate any. I was given 1...
