Thanks for pointing that out! I have been wanting to put a scope on a Rossi 92 44 mag.

revolvergeek

You might check out some of the various 1911a1s in 9mmP. They tend to have fairly light recoil springs due to the weight of the slide and are normally very easy to operate.

revolvergeek

congratulations! Looks like a great old gun.

I have had excellent luck using Kroil / AeroKroil oil along with an old copper penny and nylon brush to remove rust freckles without hurting the bluing.

revolvergeek

Very sorry to read that. It is always a hard thing. My sympathies.

revolvergeek

That is a very nice old rig! I am a long time HiPower fan also. I lucked out and picked up a Brill holster for a 5" N-frame at a pawn shop a couple years back. http://www.fototime.com/36CB51BF80A5994/xlarge.jpg Not to fond of 9mm, but I do like the hi power. I have a tricked out FEG clone. Some...

revolvergeek

Good score! I would likely hang on to that one myself. I have been looking for a .35 Rem locally but the few I have found have been way too high (mid $500s and up for a worn rifle with no scope). I have one straight stock 336 that I ended up putting a set of XS sights on (ghost ring rear and big whi...

revolvergeek

Thanks for the info! I was going to ask that myself because I will be over in Dallas early next year. I have been to Ray's several times and always find something there. I am still kicking myself for passing up an old Remington 11 with a 26" barrel and a chopped down youth length stock that the...

I picked up a very clean 6" High Standard Sentinel last year with an old Ace trigger shoe on it and have packed it a bit around the woods since. It likes Remington Subsonics and makes for a fairly quiet combo. Not as much thump as I would like sometimes though, so I am starting to play around a...

revolvergeek

Extremely cool! Thanks for posting that.

revolvergeek

Best wishes for a speedy recovery!

revolvergeek

I really like the look of that little fellow. I am glad to see that they are putting it into production. Their was a minor fuss on the NAA forum a couple months back when somebody leaked the pictures of it.

revolvergeek

Very nice work! Looks like a huge improvement over the original.

revolvergeek

Doc, That's a cool story and sounds like a very interesting little gun. I would love to see a picture of it if you feel so inclined. When you a a gold bead front site, do you mean like a shotgun bead or a blade with a bead? I played with < 4" Vaquero at a recent gunshow that had a huge plain br...

revolvergeek

My boss bought one. He is a long time 870 fan and really likes it (same controls). The sheriff's office in a neighboring parish here bought a bunch of them for patrol rifles also. Overall everybody seems to like them.

revolvergeek

5 shot .38. Pick the flavor of your choice, be it blued steel, stainless steel or one of the lightweight materials. Either a bobbed or "hamerless" design works best for pocket carry. Make sure you get a good pocket holster. They keep your revolver gunk free and in the proper position to d...

revolvergeek

Very interesting! I have an XS ghost ring set on an old 336 and it is nice and fast with plenty precision for up close around here, but it would be nice to have the option to reduce it sometimes.

revolvergeek

I didn't mean to suggest that you shouldn't shoot magnums in it, far from it, I just was sharing what had happen with mine. It is a very cool little gun and I suspect that it would be one of the last guns that I would get rid of. Regarding recoil, I put a set of checkered ebony Eagle Secret Service ...

revolvergeek

Very cool old ads. Thanks for posting them.

revolvergeek

As much as I like the looks of that .375 2½ Nitro Express round, I can't help but thing that a .44 mag conversion, even if it was just a single shot, would be a lot of fun and very versatile.

revolvergeek

My 640-1 has had to be rebuilt twice so far. I bought the first one that I laid my hands on and shot it exclusively with magnum ammo for years. The first rebuild was at around 2500 rounds. The timing was going out and the cylinder stop cuts on the cylinder where getting all beaten out of shape. I se...

revolvergeek

I have been pondering them myself again recently due to the ammo prices. Back in the early '90s I had a WWII vintage Soviet Tokarev and foolishly sold it off. In generally that are nice and flat, tough and dependable, if sometimes rather unrefined (depending on manufacture).

revolvergeek

That is very slick!

revolvergeek

Very interesting! Thanks for the link.

revolvergeek

The new 10 shot 22LR Stallion looks like it might be a lot of fun.

That little Rolling Block in .45-70 weighing 4.5 pounds must kick!

One of those in .38-55 might make a great primitive season whitetail gun for around here though....

revolvergeek

Very well done.

revolvergeek

I had a couple .44 spl Bulldogs back 10-15 years ago and they were pretty nice guns. That said, I have been completely unimpressed by the quality control that I have seen on the few newly manufactured Charter revolvers that I have looked at lately. I am sending a Southpaw (left hand model) back for ...

revolvergeek

Very interesting discussion. Thanks for the suggestions! I am going to have to play some soon and see what I can cook up.

revolvergeek

Wow!

I never heard of that movie before, but it seems like I need a copy of that!

It did take me a couple minutes to notice the pistols though...

revolvergeek

I use two .360 RB in either 38special cases or .357. Two .360 RBs will weigh approx 140 grs, I use data for 148 gr WC Target loads paying attention to WC seating depth and not seating the first ball any deeper. Have fun How do you make sure you keep the lower ball at the correct depth? I have a few...

revolvergeek

If I ever win the lottery I am going to have Hamilton Bowen make me a pair of S&W 45-2s, one round butt 4 inch and one square butt 5 inch, both with spare 22 mag cylinders. A Model 15 2 inch in .22 LR would be fun also. I would love it if somebody would re-engineer a Broomhandle Mauser in .38 Su...

revolvergeek

I thought it was pretty interesting that in a world full of Glocks and M4s, etc, here the two main characters use a double barrel shotgun and a Mare's Leg as their main guns. There may yet still be hope for the world

revolvergeek

Retro,

Did you get it set up yet? I would love to see how it turned out.

Regards,
Danny

revolvergeek

later model Det. Special--- just arrived at my FFL today and i picked it up. holster wear at the muzzle and front of the cylinder, but the cylinder turn line is very faint. only prob is the Grips have a hairline crack at the backstrap. Anyone know a decent source for grips that would be a good stoc...

Yes indeed! That makes things very simple. Thanks.

revolvergeek

I have not used any of them, but I know three people that shot the Leverevolution .45-70 out of NEF Handirifles this past year for our revised primitive season. They were very pleased with the performance compared to the 'traditional' factory SP ammo that they had been shooting.
