    S&W 442 J frame laser ???

    I'm going to get a laser light for my 442. I've never used a laser light for any of my handguns but I'd like to get one for my 442. I want to get a good quality and dependable laser. I'm trying to decide between a grip or mount style. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Crimson...

    Model 69 quality questions

    I just purchased one last month. I'm not sure whether it's an early version or not but I've only had it to the range two times. I've gone through 1 box (50 RNDs) of Blazers 240 grain and have not had any issues at all. The cylinder does get a lot of muzzle blast on it. Prior to my second trip I...

    M69 My 2nd S&W !!

    Not bad at all for a 44 mag. It's my 1st 44 and I was expecting a lot more recoil.

    M69 My 2nd S&W !!

    I was shooting off hand and I did start at 25 yards with the 69 this time out. This is the 2nd time I've had it to the range. I also was shooting my S&W 442 and Glock 23 along with a few long guns so it very well could have been me. I had targets setup at 7 yards, 25 yards and 50 yards. The 69...

    M69 My 2nd S&W !!

    25 yard accuracy?? I got to the range this past Sunday and moved a target out to 25 yards for the 69. The accuracy wasn't what I was expecting. Using Blazer JHP 240 grain I went through a box of 50. Only had 20 to 25 rounds within a 6 inch target. I was getting excellent accuracy at 15 yards...

    M69 questions from a revolver greenhorn

    LOL ! Sorry everyone but I loaded the wrong pic from S&W's website. In my original post I did state that this wasn't a pic of my 69. I hadn't noticed that it was a 3" barrel as opposed to mine being a 4". I've been having issues with Photobucket lately so that's the reason I cut and pasted a pic...

    What makes you a "collector"?

    Collector or Accumulator In my opinion a collector of anything is when someone gets through the OBSESSION phase and you are still interested in gathering information, purchasing and obtaining a product. The product (again IMHO) doesn't have to have collector value (as of yet) but it's something...

    M69 questions from a revolver greenhorn

    Thanks for the info!! I'm slowly becoming more familiar with revolvers thanks to all the information from the forum members. The numbers are some type of assembly number and are different from the SN. I thought the number in the yoke area below the SN and model number may be the production...

    Gun solvent

    Hoppes #9 Synthetic ? I've tried a lot of different solvents but my normal are Hoppes #9 and I use Butches Bore shine to clean my barrels. Both are excellent cleaners !! I picked up a bottle a few months ago of Hoppes #9 SYNTHETIC. It's not as strong as Hoppes #9 and states it's made for more...

    M69 My 2nd S&W !!

    I was able to get to the range for an hour today. Pretty good accuracy at 15 yards. The recoil wasn't bad for 240 grain JHP. The grips weren't too bad either but I'm going to look at some of your suggestions.

    M69 My 2nd S&W !!

    Blazer 44 mag steel case OK Thanks for the info on the grips ! The grips on it feel good and fit my hand very well. I'll run a few RNDs through it and see how that goes. I was at one of my favorite independent outdoor sports and supply shops today and they had Blazer 44 mag 240 grain JHP on...

    This is correct. There are many inexpensive fuel additives on the market now that will keep your fuel from freezing and also help clean your injectors. Obviously there are areas in the country that have extreme temperatures and you must take measures For your oil and all fluids. Most areas have...

    Car Batteries and sub-0 temps

    As a few others have posted I use a battery maintainer. I have a Vette that sits in the garage from the end of October until around May. Any one who's owned a Vette knows how much of a PITA it is to remove a Corvette battery. This will be my 4th or 5th year and it's not failed me yet. I picked...

    East Canton OH Gun Show, Dec. 17-18

    Thanks !! I didn't know that forum existed. I'm planning on going Saturday to East Canton unless a buddy of mine is going and wants to go Sunday. I always liked the Dalton show and hated to see it go. I was told it had something to do with the building, and they were not going to let them use...

    I use Gun Show Trader. I have it set to receive email notifications each week for the NE Ohio shows. I also pick up the schedules they have laid out when you check into the shows. I may have to setup the Ohio Gun Shows. I don't think the E Canton show is on Gun Show Trader. I was looking...
