I'm a long term user of 231/HP-38, Unique, BE, Red Dot, etc. I have an opportunity to buy an 8lb jug of Alliant BE-86.
Data is scarce for this new product but it seems to have a wide range of ...
Thanks, M Hicks....
Have you experienced any unusual leading or feed problems. I haven't shot the pistol yet and I hoping to hear some shortcuts if this particular gun has any idiosyncrasies. ...
Lead loads? Any other recommendations for the XD S or any Springfield "snubbies" for that matter?
Thanks!
Dang..... I thought I'd get more bombs thrown my way....;) Instead I saw some rational discussion with some objective comments everyone should emulate.
I thought someone like RobS would come...
I see all this debate concerning Ruger Redhawks and S&W 29.
If it's smoothness and functionality you want that will easily digest reasonable 44 loads that will stop any critter on this...
It's still available, Leftiye..... Interesting discussion on it in the "For Sale" section. I'm still open to finding some Pachmayr's for it if someone has some. Check out the "For Sale" section...
Thanks guys... I've been reading some past evaluations of the pistol and it is a very well made item. This particular one was made in the USA by Interarms. It just doesn't fit my hand and can't...
I've had this stainless Virginian Dragoon in my safe for about 30 years. I'm the original owner. It's brand new and it has never been shot since leaving the factory. It is a 7 1/2 inch 44 Mag. ...

I could be interested in the 22-250 if you don't buy it and the price is right. I'd need to see some pictures and an accurate description of condition. Let me know by PM.... Thanks!
Oops!!! Looks like I have to disagree on this one with Ranger Rick....
I have to say he is a guy to be listened to when it comes to the 500. He has extensive knowledge including boolit casting...
I agree the 10.5 is "too big" for comfortable hunting purposes. But I believe the problem is it's too long rather than too big.
The 10.5 is great for bench shooting but for all around usage, try...
WooooWeeeee!!! That's a nice find! Only problem is once you acquire one "grail" gun you'll quickly replace it with the quest for another "grail" model. Ain't the addiction awful??[smilie=s:
They all have good qualities and not so good.... Try them all and pick the one that feels best and the one you have confidence in. I like Smiths because I've gotta have a smooth DA and a crisp...
Yep... The stirrup attaches to the grip alignment pin at the bottom then attaches with a screw through the bottom of the grip. Same way for both RB and SB.... If you can try to handle one first if...
There is just no magic "fits all" solution when it comes to grips, Jack. Any mass produced grip is a compromise and we all have to try different products in a search to find the ideal fit for our...
Nope.... The "S" and "N" frame square butt grip dimensions should be identical. Some large frame Pachmayr finger grip models don't fit perfectly and have the problem you describe.
The factory...
The Mod. 29 is a fine revolver and IMHO has met every expectation I have ever had for it. I've hunted with 29's for over 35 years and had much success with them... I've often been amazed at the...
Search as you may, you probably aren't going to find anything that will make you 100% happy, or even 75%. You're either going to have to give up on power or size, then weigh which direction you...
We can debate bullets and calibers for handguns all day long but in the end success really depends on the shooter.
I've been hunting big game with a handgun for over 35 years. It tends to be much...
What a beautiful and superbly functional group of various N frames shown on this thread.
I thought some of you stainless fans would like to see this 8 3/8" version of the first 629s produced. ...
Yep.... Some were. But like all S&W revolvers options could be ordered at additional cost as requested by law enforcement agencies. Individuals could also order options through their gun dealers...
Keep in mind that the Mod. 28 "Highway Patrolman" was mainly intended as a low cost, large frame law enforcement option. It has a matte finish, no checkering on the top strap or barrel and was...
Well, I'm a long term S&W shooter, hunter and collector. I've only been enticed to own one Colt DA and that was a 6" Python.
I've gotta say I believe the Colt Python to be the finest revolver...
