Recoil I've hunted giraffe and lion with my S&W 500. I also have run thousands of rounds through my Ruger Super Blackhawk that I bought new in 1971. My S&W 342 PD snaps a little but is no big deal. Personally, and only personally, recoil is what you make of it. My African Rifle is a Ruger #1 in...

English boxlock cap and ball pistol made by Henry Richards in Newbury, England, c.1850. Approx. .50 caliber single shot. 7.5 inches overall length. Good condition, everything works. No paperwork needed to purchase. This pistol hung on the wall behind the bar of the Gold Hill Saloon in Gold Hill...

For all you experts - What do you know about this little boxlock I just acquired? All help will be paid at the going rate!

Grease Trap!

JJEH - I've been on African Safari a number of times. I'm an adventure writer. If you really want to go on Safari, let me know. Not counting airfare, you can do a five-day plains game hunt in South Africa for $3,000 to $3500. The hunt will include at least four animals.

I had an IH Scout - terrible gas mileage. Found out the little toy was heavier than a 3/4 ton PU. It had a full-boxed frame and the V-8 engine must have been sourced from a WWII British heavy cruiser.

S&W Model 29-2 $850. The revolver was improperly stored and the nickel finish is flaking. The gun had a full check up by my gunsmith (receipt for $171) and everything inside is in excellent condition. Some springs were replaced, and the action feels like new. The cylinder drag line is almost...

I've got a nickel 6.5 bbl Model 29-2 made somewhere between 1978 & 1979. Internals are just about perfect. Drag line is very faint. Kicker is that it was stored poorly and the nickel finish is peppered. Metal is fine just the finish is bad. What would you do with it?

OK, gentlemen - those are my two brothers and my girlfriend Jeri in the middle. Hey - someone had to take the photo

Mine was a 383 with a four speed, and side pipes on headers.

Love my 500! 500 grain Hornady load. Neck shot.

I did the meds. Worked great. My reading is now <.05 (two years later)

I'm Irish. I have a cousin who is a tail gunner on a bread truck in Belfast!

I've got a replica C-96 by Denix. Looks just like the real thing. It would make a good start on a Solo blaster.

I see that the GA stocks are rather expensive. I'm in the gun less than $550, so I'm not too sure I want to spend the money on the GAs. After all, the pig I shoot really doesn't care

My 29-2 comes back as 1979-1980. If the gun could talk - what a tale it would tell. Oh, and totally off topic but still a big bore S&W, here's what you can do with a handgun.

The ones that go round and round are called "revolvers". The ones that go back and forth are semi-autos.

Hawg, What means "GA" stocks, pls?

SVT28. Yup, that's the gun. I've since added a rear sight and front red ramp. My gunsmith checked it out, replaced some springs and now it feels like a new gun. I'll break out the Flitz and see what happens. I'l post before and after photos when I'm done. (I used 68 patches getting the dirt...

I've got a M29-2 nickel. It appears to have been stored in a compost heap for years. It is mint inside after the dirt was removed, but the nickel is pitted. I'm thinking about an Ionbond TB41 DLC coating. Look at the photo and give me your thoughts, pls & thx
