    What gun are you on the lookout for?

    You got a steal with that one, especially when you compare to prices on GB. Yes it sure does pay to stop in at small shops...you NEVER know what you might find that you just CAN'T walk away from...

    Picked up a nice SW 17-2 today

    That's a really nice 17-2 you found usmcsgt, congrats! I found my one-n-only 17 six years ago now at my LGS and haven't seen another one come in there since!

    What gun are you on the lookout for?

    Nice pickup Mike on the Ithaca 37! I haven't seen one of those at any LGS or guns shows in a few years now. Was it a Deer Slayer model? Mind sharing what you got it for and the condition? Some of the prices on GB are all over the place... Years ago when I was in school, a LGS had a new Colt...

    Gunshop Discount Bin - What have you picked up?

    I really like the comfortable IWB N82 Tactical holsters that cover the complete grip and have a nice sheepskin backing. I was in my LGS the other day and saw one in the discount bin...hmmm....wonder what this one fits? I picked it up and looked at the sticker saying "1911". Cool...It was only...

    Happy Birthday to me (S&W Mod. 36, no dash, 3")

    Sometimes you just have to gift yourself something you'd want! Congrats, I've never seen a Chiefs Special 3" in any gun store I've walked into. Good thing you stopped by!

    New Ruger/Marlin 1894 .357 caliber lever rifle, shooting impressions....

    I agree chief38, the new Ruger-Marlin rifles look great with a nice smooth action. I've tried to get a "JM" .357 for several years now from sellers at gun shows but their asking prices are OUTRAGEOUS! No way will I pay $1500-$1800 when you can buy a new Ruger-Marlin for less than that. Funny...

    Just added 15-3 Snub

    Yep, they pop up sometimes when you LEAST expect it, nice find, glad you jumped on it! My 15-4 snubbie in a nice leather SafariLand holster popped up a week after I found my first other 15; a 4" 15-3, at the same LGS. They are really fun to shoot! Congrats.

    Colt Army Special-1922, questions

    Thank you all for the great analysis and advice. I went back to the LGS store today to give it another look and compare it to the S&Ws I really like in my collection. I decided to let it go and concentrate more on any S&W revolvers that might come along. The fact that I don't have any other...

    Colt Army Special-1922, questions

    After looking it up, it was changed to the Official Police. Thanks, it is a very clean solid revolver for being over 100 y.o.

    Just picked up this model 10-7 snubby- shall I get the second one as well?

    I'd get the 2nd one also. I had two 15's show up a day apart at my LGS. The first one was a beautiful 4" and the next one was a 2.5? snubby; just as clean as the first one, with a nice leather holster...yep, couldn't let that snubby get away. Since then, I've seen several other 4" 15's but not...

    Colt Army Special-1922, questions

    My LGS has a very clean 1922 Colt Army Special that came in. It's almost 95% with deep blueing and great lockup. It has the double spear Rampant Colt Logo(don't know is that's significant?) for a total of $745. I looked up some GB prices and they are all over the place; some comparable ones are...

    Plinking Fun Chinese SKS

    That's a great looking SKS! You're right, they are a blast to shoot. I think the Norincos are some of the best ones out there!

    63 kit gun pinned barrel - date help?

    Thanks Pilgrim, now I've got 2 4". I've never seen a 2" or even a 3" for sale at LGS or gun shows. Those must be really tough too find. Which to you like shooting better; the 4" or the 2"?

    63 kit gun pinned barrel - date help?

    Those grips look awesome. I'll have to keep an eye out for some at upcoming gun shows.

    63 kit gun pinned barrel - date help?

    I like those. My other older 63 none pinned has a set of Mustang finger grooved stocks and it is very comfortable.
