    SOLD Factory S&W Combats K Square

    Fellas, while looking for a pair of grips that a member posted a WTB for a while back, I couldn't find them, and then I could. In the meanwhile, he managed to find a pair, but I've decided these are now actively for sale, so I'll offer these here first, before listing on eBay Sunday evening...

    Volquartsen MKII trigger

    start simple; the trigger spring, is it providing spring pressure to the trigger? I seem to recall a way or two that you could get it in wrong.

    Research Shows Handguns Best Defense In Bear Attacks

    I have to admit, in 2024, when I hear ANYthing put forth as a government recommendation, I tend to automatically disbelieve it. They've earned that...

    Charter Arms 44

    This one was pretty, but it hit the primers so far off to the side, I never could quite trust it enough to... trust it...

    Chinese knives

    I'd bet every one of us that hates the Chinese and hates the thought of ultimately buying our own demise is sitting somewhere, SURROUNDED by Chinese crap (cheap OR expensive Chinese crap!) The difference is, we hate it, that's all…

    Hunter, Bullseye Shooter

    Welcome aboard. I am a little younger, but I think I took up bullseye a little earlier, maybe around '94-'95. I used a Navy issued NM 1911 and eventually built a Colt, finally just bought and still shoot a Rock River NM1911. My wife still shoots her KMK678, I don't have my HS Supermatic Trophy...

    Speed Six restoration

    If that's the gun, I'd like to confirm that it is indeed a stainless steel speed six? If I'm correct, yeah, I'd be surprised if rust was a serious problem. I certainly have SEEN a rusty stainless frame, all stainless needing some amount of carbon for strength. But it was really only some...

    Squib

    Well, I can say that it happened to me, many years ago, and caused me to ring the barrel in a S&W Model 14, during a busy stage on a noisy firing line. I actually did NOT notice it at all until I was cleaning the bore with a snug jag and patch (that is, until it hit that "ring"…

    SOLD 1957 RSS Single Six with Custom Case Color Frame, Adjustable Sights, Stag Grips!

    Ahh, COOL, thanks! Like I mentioned, I HAVE a Micro sight in my little parts bins somewhere, I will post a pic of it when I find it. Would seem a front sight from mostly anybody, so long as it's height & width were correct, could mate up to a Micro rear. I was pleased to find that flat top...

    SOLD 1957 RSS Single Six with Custom Case Color Frame, Adjustable Sights, Stag Grips!

    I'd like to see pics of those with the Micro sight. That rear sight looks a LOT like a higher end model by LPA of Italy. Nice looking work.
