At least it wasn't a boating accident!

 

[LedFowl]

Will anyone be hurt?

If the cylinder is still intact I could use it seeing how the parts are just going to end up in the trash anyway. I'll even offer to pay the shipping.

You were using IE, weren't you?

 

[Pbchucker]

So, are you going to make a lamp, ashtray, or candleholder from the pieces?

 

[Autococker07]

Well, pack all that junk in a box, and ship it here, Ill do with it what i can

 

[Jinglebob]

Reminds me of a line from a Patsy Cline song: “You walk by and I fall to pieces.”

 

[Bugkiller99]

Is this part of the "would you shoot someone else's reloads" thread??

 

[Comrad]

Is that the snap together model? Nary a screw in sight of that explosion.

 

[Dan Christopher]

Such a tease!

 

[billwill]

You numbered them in sequence when it came apart didn't you? Boy I hope you don't loose #8 or you'll be in trouble.

Give her a good rub down with FLITZ. Since it has the Rust Blue, you'll see how much gunk comes off of her to reveal the beauty within. The FLITZ's Rust Blue looks fantastic.

I did a 1945-vintage M&P 5-inch with terrific results. Cheers!

I'm actually afraid to ask...

were those +p++ bio-thermal nuclear warfare rounds?

 

[finesse_r]

This could be serious. Do you have a federal license for an exploding device?

or it could be....,

That you are looking for the thread about the superiority of revolvers over semi-auto loaders.

Now there's your problem!

I don't think Flitz will do much for this old girl.

 

[KAC]

Not as bad as some I`ve seen. The cylinder stop didn`t blow out.

 

[Harrison]

I see you are missing several pieces, like maybe the trigger assembly.

 

[Harrison]

My bad. I see it hiding about 1 o'clock.

It's an early pre-model no-screw skeleton-grip, chambered in S&W CTG.

Those are rare!

 

[GaryS]

You're the only person I know of that actually bought that fancy tool for installing the rebound slide spring.

 

[Cheesemonger]

smith357,
I bought the same exact one last year at IKEA...It should include two really cheap Allen wrenches and multilingual assembly instructions. I hope for your sake you didn't lose them!!

 

[CajunBass]

That'll happen when you dare to use P+ ammo you know.

 

[islamoradamark]

maybe you can send it in to S&W maybe they might help you out

 

[BigBill]

That couldn't happen to a ruger lol.

 

[H Richard]

Looks like a good opportunity for a thorough cleaning.
