Well, you sold a book for him. I looked him up and his book “Beyond The Wild Bunch” is on Amazon. Looks good, and its on the way.

Just checked only one left in stock.......Somebody must like it.

Gary Keilt wrote an article in the Blue Press about the French model 1950. In it he states......."The sights are easily adjustable with either a welder or a grinder."..............Let that sink in a few moments folks........

As someone proficient in the art of sarcasm, I recognize this as such.

I approve as well

I wish I could find my copy of Guns & Ammo from the late 80's that contained reloading drink recipes. One that I remember was Wild Turkey with a float of 5 grains of Unique.

Wasn't sarcasm........Was a stupid statement under a pic of the rear sight
I'm done........Believe all the idiots you want.

Someone's gout is really playing up today.

An obvious case of dry humor. I approve.

This is the answer. Stop trying to make something out of it that’s not there .

That might be the answer to the mysterious rear sight on my Colt Model 1903 Army revolver, serial 207678. RAC stamped on the left side of the frame, the cylinder and grips as typical. JEH at the top of the frame on the left, also typical. Date stamped 1904 on the left side by the grip. also typical. Barrel has a two line address with Mar 5 95 as the last patent date and a K stamped underside. Gun is in nice shape, timing and lock up are excellent, mechanics are sound, grips are quite decent, all in all great 110 year old gun and a wonderful find, but...

The rear sight is a mystery, I've not seen one like it before on a New Army, military or civilian version. It is squared off, almost like an early type of target sight, but is not adjustable it looks forged into the frame. It does not look added on in any way. Whoever did it was skilled!

Here are pictures of the sight. Sure would like to know what y'all make of it.

Stupidity is humor?

How many here actually read the article before commenting here?

OK, which issue is it in, I'll read it.

I got Gary Kieft’s book about Cowboy Shooting yesterday - it is really good!

Besides covering all aspects of CAS he includes inserts about the cowboy stars of days gone by.

I highly recommend it.

The "BLUE PRESS" is not a trade magazine the same as sports afield or AR is. It is a mag printed by Dillon specifically about their reloading presses, and related products. You have to contact Dillon and ask to receive it.

I’ve had at last one semi fictitious story published in that magazine/catalog. Roy Huntington suggested I try them, as the story really didn’t fit American Handgunner. They accepted it immediately and paid pretty well also. Better than AH would have, and they provided the artwork
