I know there are a few engraved guns here in TX. I'm willing to meet in the Odessa or midland area or what not. I have a super nice collection of 1911 parts from military to comercial plus slides,bbls,multi caliber conversions. All the guns and parts are contained in a wooden multi drawer case...

Hey everyone,looking to trade for engraved smiths or colts near the lubbock area. I am willing to meet half way if possible. I have many smiths,varmint and target guns. I have target 22s with unertl scopes,1911s and different types of firearms. Let me know if we can work something out. Thanks

Thanks for the info,this gun is flawless and I have enjoyed owning it. I finally pulled it out of the wrapper in the box and put it up. Thanks again!

Hello everyone,hope all is well. I have a like new mid 80s 77 22 still in original box and unfired since leaving the factory. Bolt is still in the cardboard holder and flawless. I believe the paperwork is dated 1985. I was thinking about possibly doing some swaping and I figured this would be...

Haha, I assure you my hands are small! This gun is pretty big, I think it was the angle that made it look small.

Thankyou RedHawk 44 for posting the pic! This gun is a super blackhawk 44 magnum with a 85 prefix. My good friend gave it to me as a christmas gift! He purchased it over twenty years ago! Part of the work was done in New Oreans and the finish work done here in Tx.

Guys I've got a gun that showed up that you have got to see! All I have access to at the moment is my bb but if someone will let me email pics to them and if they would post them that would be great. I can't wait for yall to see this thing! Its a head turner! If I get access to a computer I will...

I got more than 550 for a four digit with no box for mine about 2 months ago. It was about a 95 percent gun. They are seldom seen in my area. Just my 02.

Hey everyone,what's the going rate on the spny 570 prefix like new no box going for these days? Thanks

Yeah I like the gun,as to value I don't know where to start. My buddy offered me 1800. I don't know what to think of that,maybe that's good maybe that's bad but it doesn't eat much and it does look good. I told him I would think about it. The reg number is over 3000 I know,I don't have it in...

Man those engraved guns look awesome!!!!! I have been fortunate to own some fine engraved guns over the years,but this reg mag takes the cake! Not that the engraving is so awesome or anything like that,its just that finding another reg mag just takes the cake. I was on my way to a gunshow when I...

Yeah I'm working on getting better pics. Being that I have owned many of an engraved gun I'm not bothered so much with the refinish. I have seen your guns before,nice! The last reg mag I picked up had been engraved with someone elses name not from the factory. That seems to be the only way I can...

Yeah I knew all of that when I traded for the gun,but it just looked cool! I have a massive collection of smith parts including hammers and triggers and internal parts I got out of an estate some time ago. Stripping the nickle off the hammer and trigger would be easy and case coloring them both...

Ok in my quest to find more engraved guns for my collection,I ran across this bad boy. Its a 3 1/2 inch pawnshop engraved smith with ivory steerhead grips.I know dont laugh to hard! Sorry about the poor pic.

Another good thing to do is take pictures of the guns and serial numbers. You can also turn those in to your home owners insurance company for records. At least that way they will have a record of what weapons you have in your house. And if you trade like I do,update the records with your agent.
