    Subscription Gun Collecting - Revolvers

    Sorry Steve! Guess kind of misspoke on the Super Blackhawk! These are model 815 - 50th Anniversary Super Blackhawks, but serial number do end on 00027 or 00033 on either one of these from what I saw. Think these was also a 50th anniversary Bearcat ending in the 00027 as well.

    Going Rate KBNV-404SW

    What is the going rate for a NIB KBNV-404SW Stainless Vaquero in 40 S&W, Ruger model 515? Think saw a listing in the Ruger Reference for back in 2010 for this, but it was some time ago, and not certain what the current value would be. Any help appreciated!

    Subscription Gun Collecting - Revolvers

    Do members out there still collect the old subscription guns? Would there be interest in Super Blackhawks ending in 27 or 33, or was that a fad that has passed? Curious to hear from members. Thanks!

    JM Marlin Question

    Think it is way over priced, you can get a Turnbull one for $1,300 http://www.gunbroker.com/item/650416861 (Don't know if this is a JM pre Remlin one) But the listing price seems way too high. Have picked up several JM Marlins and they were in the 550 to 650 range, but that was about 3-4 years...

    adjustable gas block on the Ruger ar 5.56

Intended to try it for smallbore silhouette, got a second one and was lucky to get an 8" group out of it. The first one was a really early one and had a slightly heavier...

    SR 762 Blowing Primers

    May be a problem with the profile on the end of the firing pin, that can happen with AR type firearms. Brownells sells a firing pin protrusion gauge, but it is for AR-15's and not certain if it would work on an AR-10 type. Once you get a pierced primer the gas can erode the firing pin, check...
