I dont even mess with my .38 J-frames (640-1 and 49) anymore. Not because I am afraid of capacity or the caliber, I frickin' love .38special. But ever since a friend let me shoot one of those...
I waited 43 years to hear that question. My sports life is complete.
I'd love a blued Speed Six with a 3" barrel. Unfortunately those command more than I think they are worth. But could they do...
Eh. I like them and the larger P09.
Buuuuuut, as a lefty I use my left index finger to press the mag release. In doing so my left thumb actually applies enough toque on the right side of the...
Before CV hit in 2020, I took advantage of Walmart's SJW look on pistol ammo and military cartridges, along with the prices we would deem "a steal" compared to today's prices. I noticed that one...
Here's some handloads, if anyone cares:
Powder: Red Dot
Bullet: Berry's 148gr plated HBWC
Casings: Mixed nickel standard pressure, non wadcutter marked
Primer: Winchester SPP
Left handed Farrants no less. I am left handed.
Time to think... to wonder... to shame myself.
No.
Factory only.
It seems something with a second point of contact, for instance the top of the receiver, is needed. A new rear sight would be needed, thus driving the costs up further
For a while. Then high portions of the gun get shiny again. When it get annoying, you bead blast it again.
Here are two of my three stainless S&Ws (64-6s, the other a 640-1) blasted with mild...
I thought enough of Fink's to send my two 64-6s to him
It looks glass bead blasted to me. Similar to the LadySmiths.
I...! I am trying to be really good. I have two 64-6s coming back from Fink's that are 3" guns. Please buy this one.
Do it! Do it before I do something stupid!

I didnt like the 8rd mags for the OG Shield because the of the spacer. Because it wasnt anchored and sort of floated along the magazine tube, it could cause some problems. I took to using adhesives...
I've seen old-timers use a small c-clamp with a brass rod in the barrel
I picked up a lightly used Gen 1 P32 for $200 the other day. It came with a single factory (MecGar) 10rd magazine and I snagged a pair of 7rd mags NIP at a shop.
I looked online and I can find...

Alvarado Pawn in Alvarado, Texas has a good looking Lew Horton 624. They have $1299 on the tag, but its been there 3 or 4 months, maybe more. Call (817)-783-7296 and ask for "ChadKyle" any day but...
I have a recipe of 2.5grs of Red Dot with a Hornady HBWC. Says that load is 700 fps out of a 4" barrel. Should be lower from a 2" J.
Give Jeff Lee of Lee's Gun Parts a shout. (972) 790-0773
He's only open Tuesday-Thursday 9-5.
But he has parts. For everything. For days.
The class at TacCon we were in was a subtle reminder this. A student's 14" 870 SBS was used. The student knew what HIS blaster would do with HIS choice of load. In HIS case the load was Winchester...
I'd be leery of them. (956) area code, that is the lower Rio Grande Valley. I spend some time down there, maybe I can pop in.
Heck, I've got a factory 3" 65 barrel sitting on my desk right now.
I have no idea why.
Aaaaaaaannd it works now, with all mags (Prodigy and Staccato) except for a Gen 2 Staccato 17rd mag which had a failure to feed.
I am debating on relegating the factory Gen 2 17rd mag to a snap...
