PM sent on this. Thanks man.

This is my Great GrandFathers pistol handed down through the years and now my father has it. Soon it will be mine even though it's not really worth much. The only things I really know are, the U.S. Revolver Co. was actually Iver Johnson's Arms and Cycle Works. It seems to be a late 1800's or early 1900's model but there is little info out there on them. Just figured I'd post a little more history here since I posted my Father-Inlaws Navy Colt Revolver. On the top of the barrel it says: U.S. Revolver Co. Made in USA On the bottom of the trigger is 24680, with the 24 being smaller than the 680. I was told by my father that this was an issued Calvery Officers pistol in WW1 but some how I think my father is lieing.

Pics added.

Congrats Jhatmaker........

Awsome!!!! In my bathroom, in an easily gotten to, tucked away space, lies a S&W Airweight (.38spl +P) with Crimson Laser Grips for the wife. All I need to do is open the shower curtain and it'll blind Hellen Keller in her grave. No robber stands a chance when it comes to my shiney hiney!@!

As usual for summer time, my G26 in a Comptac. All day, every day. (minus sleeping and work )

Just saw this thread....... Sounds like things are comming along. Like I said before, I'd be more than happy to pay you (when things are finished of course) to spray my SKS.

Nice price for a true copy!!! Post pics....

Empty mags do you no good........

That's too cool.....can't wait to see more pics!! Custom FTW!!!

I totally agree with what OhShoot has said from his point of view. Basically turn it around to the G26 in my case though. Considering I shot OhShoots' XD and he shot my G26 a few weeks back, after exchanging the "why we purchased" statements, we both agree that either is an outstanding choice for personal carry. Yes both have their issues depending on who you talk to, but the main thing is what you actually feel comfortable with in your hand. If possible, shoot them both. If you were closer to KTown, I know both OhShoot and I would let you pound out a few rounds out of each gun.

Holy crap!!! That was my first thought as I was placing the ammo!! I kinda got into the whole ammo vs. firearm thing and thinking a firearm is near worthless without ammo, I started acting like the ammo were soldiers standing on their defeated prize amongst their fallen brethern. I don't feel so now.

That's what the wife said.... I wouldn't say carefully placed........but I was hoping the pic would turn out decent enough... I'm by no means a photographer, I was just trying to get some "different" pics since my usual pics are boring

Really?? I've never heard of any misconceptions on lubrication....care to enlighten me?? Seriously, I always thought it was pretty simple as far as the lubing process was concerned. Everything I've read gave the same lube points, the only difference was what the person decided to use to lube as each has their own "wonder" lube they love.... I'm asking since I own 2 Glocks and have NEVER had any type of issue out of either of them using Glock products. Both have been reliable and with 1000's of rounds out of my G19, it hardly shows any wear. My G26 is seriously behind on the number of rounds through it but once again, it still looks pristine inside and out..........just want to make sure I get the longest use out of em'.....so if you have some seceret info, share it us please.....

Keep watching.....we'll be hitting Norris soon enough.

Tis true. Airline security will tell you that if the weapon is stolen, and you as a ticket counter person has handled the firearm, you are now a suspect if the firearm is stolen. If the firearm is used in a murder, your finger prints might be the only ones on the firearm. You have a right to not allow anyone but a TSA employee to handle the firearm. If anyone other than you handles your firearm, tell a TSA agent or management person of the airline and have it addressed right there. There are strick guide lines ticket counter people are supposed to follow when handling a person wanting to declare a firearm.

Hmmm......I'd have to say around 25 to 30 minutes. I bought a very used Rem 870 at one of the R.K. shows, kind of an impulse buy when I first walked throught the door. I had been wanting one for a while and while walking around I saw a PA-63. As I've always been into pistols, the 870 went as an even trade and I left before I saw anything else I wanted...

I guess I'll hit this one as well. More than likley it'll have to be on early on Saturday so I can sleep before work that night. If that doesn't happen, it'll definatly be Sunday even though all the decent stuff will be gone through. I'm looking for any type of SKS in just about any condition and any nationality. Wanting one for a project. Of course some 7.62x39 ammo as well......doubt the prices will be any where near what I want to pay. Oh well, I don't have to buy do I...

Hey guys, good to see you all again. Had tons of fun and was happy to be able to throw some lead downrange. Can't wait to do it again. I have my key to the range and plan on getting back there often.....

After a shower in the morning..... 172lbs After dressing in the morning...... -185lbs ------------------------------------------ weight of crap I carry................. =13lbs Keys, wallet, jewlery, knives, change, G26 and spare 15rd mag, pen, shoes, shorts, t-shirt, light, belt, cell phone and bic lighter weigh 13lbs

No pics. It's my father-in laws pistol. Guess we need to take some anyways for the insurance company so I'll see if I can't get some snapped soon. It's got surface rust on it but everything works fine. The powder handle, the cylinder, trigger, hammer, everything is functional. I wouldn't say it's ready to actually be loaded up, packed and shot, but it will function while dry firing. (no we don't dry fire it all the time) Nothings broke or heavily marred and looks like all the # match.....so it may be worth something. That's what we need to find out....

Maybe I'm stupid on this one but I can't worry about someone breaking into my car and stealing my Glock. I can't stop someone from breaking into anything of mine nor can I control who's hands my Glock or any of my firearms might end up in if they are stolen. I'd actually be more hurt if they stole one of my cars or one of my guitars. They're more valuable than my Glock is.....

I work for an airline and usually there isn't any issues with guns. Does anybody have a clue how many people are flying somewhere to hunt at any given time?? Most every aircraft in the sky has either a handgun or a rifle on it and I'm not joking. Flights to Alaska, Montana, Washington and other "hot" hunting spots most always have some type of fire arm on it. The percentage of a firearm dissappearing is maybe 1%. Most airlines have "contact" names from the ticket counter, to the gate agent, to the bag room attendant and to the loaders. If the firearm turns up missing, they have people to chat with. Airlines take firearms seriously and the FAA requires doccumentation, especially if ammo is on board......

Dual 995's??? I can bring the factory stock to swap out so they look the same...... I want you all to know that once again I will be shooting after being up for 38hrs straight.....forgive me if my aim is a little off.

That's already been done. Unfortunatly, that bears no meaning to an insurance company. If it's valuable enough to insure, we need the papers proving it......
