The last time I looked a which was a year or so ago a brand new model 10 .38 special with rubber grips was pushing 1K. Why would anybody pay that much when you can buy a used one cheaper. Why even...

If they were instructing a class and firing them as an example of "What not to do" , that would be like a Drivers Ed teacher consuming a 6 pack of beer at the wheel to a class.

No, still many Grandpa's around buying and sellin' them :grin:
The majority of the younger guys these days do not know about Keith is because of the changing times. The younger crowd for the most part are not even into revolvers and when the .44 magnum is...
Not a .357 but a gunshop I use to go to that's now closed use to have a .44 Blackhawk on display that had blown off the top of the frame and part of the cylinder that happend because of a bad reload....
I have no personal experience with these 2 but I have read the stratospheric priced Korth is a strong action and that the French Manhurin M73 are pretty indestructable. Myself if I was looking for a...

I have made 8mm mauser brass from both .270 and .30-06. I measure a factory case in millimeters and make it to those specs not specs on paper. They almost never seem to measure a true 57, more like...
I have read Clark's testing he has done on both the CZ52 and the Tok and find it interesting. I was always a believer (until I read his tests)in the strength of the roller design of the CZ going back...
I find the special contract runs for Police Depts. etc. interesting. Smith & Wesson and Colt both did that and Factory letters and communication with them directly usually irons out the myths and...

My Uncle just dug out his Marlin 1894 .44 Mag out of a 30yr old slumber because he is a self admitting hoarder and could not get to it for all that time. He went shopping for .44 Mag ammo so he could...

I think this is a Spanish 1916 Rifle that was reworked from a 1893 Long rifle or 1895 carbine. Ludwig and Lowe later became DWM in the late 1890's. 7mm is 7x57. Some of these were even later...
The one Hornady case looks to have a drag mark between the primer indentation and the other dimple. Something appears to be moving around to cause that. I would guess the cylinder unlocking theroy...
Take some pics of the gun, top,left,right side,front of frame and under barrel if your friend would let you. Pics say a 1000 words:smile:
1940 is the date on the reciever and 42 on the toggle is code for Mauser. If the frame is marked P08 on the left than the frame is not matching to the rest since the frames weren't marked P08 until...
The Mauser 1910 is scary accurate for a .25 ACP. They will group at distance shooting. I'm sure there are other .25 ACP's just as accurate and then there are some that are just functional.
I've noticed better ignition when used and cleaner cases.
I shoot a Sig P6 with a 9mm 125gr. cast bullet behind bullseye and to keep the leading down every couple of magazines or so I will fire an FMJ and make my last shots of my shooting session with FMJ's...

Mosin-Nagant 7.62x54
Mauser 8mm Yugo/Russian capture 98K
Probably as other said would be on the cheap.
How far and what do you want to shoot, targets or to hunt etc.?
One gun not mentioned...
I got an NEF swingout .22LR 9 shot with 4 inch heavy barrel. Close enough to an H&R.
