    SW Ultimate J Frame

    Thank you for sharing that. I had suspected it would be in that range. My LGS has me on a Lipseys watch list for one. I certainly don't want to pay the "have to have it right now" tax by buying online.

    SW Ultimate J Frame

    I am looking for one of those myself. How much are they going for (if you don't mind my asking) in a brick and mortar LGS versus online? They are going for fantastical prices on GB right now.

    GP100 - Talo

    I have tried several of the rubber grips on my GP's. I seem to prefer the compact ones on the short barreled GP 100s. Here is a zoomed out view of the photo above. On the upper left is the 4.25" .327 wearing the full sized factory grip. The 44 special GP 100 on the upper right has what I...

    GP100 - Talo

    Altamont came out with grips this year for the GP100 that are very similar to the ones that came on my .327 Mag 5-1/2" GP100. They are very nice in my opinion. I will probably buy more of them. I wish Ruger would sell the smooth ones that came on the .327, I believe they source them from...

    GP100 10mm Questions

    I found the same thing with my S&W 310 Nightguard snubby. Since it has the Scandium frame, I started off shooting mostly 40 S&W in it (to save some wear and tear), but I got light primer strikes all the time. I tried installing an aftermarket firing pin that was a little longer, but it didn't...

    Walnut for a Security Six

    Those are beautiful grips. Congratulations. I wish I had the talent to make my own. I did try the wood grips for the Security Six from Texas Grips. I liked them very much.

    SOLD Ruger Speed Six and Ruger Security Six--Both SPF

    Nice guns and a fair price. I would have jumped on both of them too!

    Sheriff's 44 special

    I suppose everyone has their own workflow. Putting the cases back in the box is a no go for me. They get dumped into my Dillon case feeder attached the to Lee APP and the primers get punched out - as soon as I get home. I like to clean them in stainless steel pins in the tumbler, and the...

    Sheriff's 44 special

    Both my 44 special flattop and my Sheriff work well with the Borchardt 44-40 cylinder too. Kind of a neat look with the solid sided cylinder. I've not shot the Sheriff with the 44-40 cylinder on paper, but by flattop shoots tighter groups than either one of my Uberti 44-40's with it. A fun...

    Sheriff's 44 special

    You're not supposed to have lead flavored pies? :-) I always take a 2.5 gallon bucket with a screw on lid to the range, with those pie plates to hold fresh ammo and some of the cheap round Tupperware plastic tubs for the spent cases. They all stack neatly in the bucket, and help with me...

    Sheriff's 44 special

    Is that a Bisley hammer?
