Made in 1969, the first year that a start up company founded by a certain Karl Nill supplied the grips for Willi Korth.

No big difference between a high end match pistol and a great rimfire revolver. They both perform equally well from a rest or offhand. After I retired from active competitions the Hammerli...

I bought a used S&W 22A around the turn of the millenium when my sons were young teenagers and got more interested in shooting. I have a lot of nice firearms and wanted something inexpensive for the...

Doing a good trigger job involves a little bit more than a simple spring swap, the power that the rebound slide needs to reset the trigger has to be greater than the friction it is working against;...
I have competed in ISSF pistol matches for some time and I noticed that with a roll crimp the different case length leads to heavier crimping and vertical stringing. A roll crimp will alleviate...

I found three sealed steel canisters of Norma P-3 powder that I had for a long time when I went through my supplies. I forgot the loading data for it and all searches were in vain, so far. I remember...
I own a Python since over 30 years and while the D/A is good, it doesn't come close to a post 1969 Korth with the roller bearing on top of the trigger.

Ammo is pretty much an international commodity. In Germany prices for 50 rounds boxed rimfire ammo increased from €2.00 to €3.30/4.00 (depending on quantity breaks) in the last ten years. CCI...
Thirty-some years ago affluent friends let me shoot their guns and a Korth and a SIG P210-6 most impressed me. It took very long to get my first Korth but now I have a small collection of Korths and...
I used Zero 125 gr JTC with Blue Dot with very good results. It was very accurate in a Glock 23/32 and fun with the muzzle flash in a heavy load. Recoil characteristics were much nicer than in a...
They old K-22s are very nice guns and great shooters. By the look of the extractor rod on yours, it has been shoot some but been well cared for. Yours seems to have a target hammer and I am not sure...
Over the years I have picked u a few S&W classic service revolvers, the last three 64s were bought a little over a year ago for $216 each shipped. Just they were no present for Dad but two were...

by coating I mean the coating with paint that I use on centerfire bullets. My theory is that a coated .445 RB with a light load should do well but I have landed hard on my butt on...

thanks for this helpful info, it is what I was looking for! I checked the twist rate and it is a 1/48 rate. That isn't a round ball mold that you are referring to, do you have a...

I picked up a used Davide Pedersoli .45 percussion rifle recently. The rifle is about 53 inches long and was built in 1979. It is overall in very good condition with a nice set trigger, good walnut,...

"Factors that would exaggerate that condition would include; jacketed bullets, large barrel to cylinder gap and long barrels."
What about the crimp, or lack thereof?
My son got an RIA in 9mm around last Christmas and it did group poorly until it was sent in. The gun was returned within three weeks and is very accurate now. My son is a 90% shooter at the 25 m ISSF...
I have plenty of personal experience with two SIG P210s that are original Swiss guns. One is a SIG P210-4 that I gave my oldest son when he got admitted to med school and I then replaced it with a...
The folks on the Smith & Wesson forum could easily shed some light on this, a flood light, probably:mrgreen:. I also believe this to be a newer gun and find the asking price a little high.

Looks like a Voere Titan to me. They were available in calibres ranging from .22 l.r. to centerfire hunting loads. This action is much stronger and more refined than the regular Voere rimfire or...
