I have a buddy who wants to sell or trade a gun but dosen't do the computer thing. Is it alright for me to post for him in the classifieds?

Ok, I got to see it again before going out of town. It is a 29-3. The trigger feels like maybe a one pound or so pull, I can't tell, not enough experience but very light compared to my semi's. It has adjustable sights front and rear. The scope mount was professionally installed and uses a three ring system. It's a tasco scope. 4X I believe. Stainless trigger and if memory serves me right also the hammer. He sent a couple more pics but they're really fuzzy. I can't strike any deals on this thread, but may list it for him in the classifieds if he wants. Just need to know a ballpark figure.

Hogue Aluminum laser grips. Interesting concept.

Nills? Sorry for my ignorance. I believe the Cerakote is pretty much the most durable coating out there. If you look it up you can see the wear tests and reviews. One awesome product. Next is one of my P238's.

Done by gunrunner32. Super nice fellow.

Sig Sauer P220 Cerakoted in Titanium. Crimson trace grips and TFO sights.

He sent a couple of pics. I requested a closer side shot of the markings and scope mount. Here they are.

Well, it figures. I talked to him today and he's going to send me some pics. Now he can't get his computer to come on. Probably buy a new one tonight. I asked him about the trigger, he says he bought it new and never had any work done to it except for the mounting of the scope. Drilled and tapped by a gunsmith in Arizona. I'll get back with pics as soon as I get them and more info. Said he didn't see any numbers on it, He'll look under the grips tonight.

When he gets back in town and at home with it, I'll call him so he can look at it. It is double action of course. When I shot it, I cocked the hammer back. That's where the hair trigger comes into play. I'll probably be able to update saturday.

My friend at work has a S&W K Frame .44 mag. 10-5/8" barrel. He told me today that he wanted to maybe sell it or trade it for a semi auto. I guess I'm the only person he knows that knows about guns, but I don't know crap about revolvers and probably never will. I did shoot it, and when I say hair trigger, I mean Hair trigger. Wow! He had a smith install a scope on it but I don't know any details about it, didn't pay attention. Not looking to sell or trade through this post, just looking for a ballpark figure and don't really know what questions to ask him about it. I'll see if he can send me a pic. to load. Any help would be great. Thanks.

I was there e few months ago and was quoted around $360. No thanks. I did like the bronze 1911 he did. He said it was a costom color he made to match something.

The Olympic .45ACP mags are similar to .223 but have no curve.

I walked all over twice trying to find an older slide stop for a 1911. There weren't any slide stops for a 1911 anywhere in the place. No 1911 parts to speak of. I wasn't even in a hurry and missed them. I did pick up a Boker auto though.

Ok. Calm down boys. When I ship, I use my own service and print labels for both directions anyway.

Looks like KCC is the way to go for me. Thanks to all.

6.8 is good also. Size,Kinetic energy, Weight. Kind of a in between of the 7.62 and 5.56. I agree about the 5.56. It's kind of like a video game where people get shot several times before going down. With 6.8 or 7.62, they're down.

Found it. Didn't think ok was really Oklahoma. Lower case threw me off. That's quite a hike for me.

Would like some info. on it. Maybe a link? Thanks.

I'm looking to get my Sig P220 Cerakoted. I've heard prices in upwards of $350.00. Sounds a little high to me. Anyone know where to take it that's reasonable? Locally is preffered as I don't want to ship it and mess with transfers. Thanks.

Too late, but future reference. Guns and Leather in Greenbrier has always does mine as soon as I walk in the door. He may not all the time, but the last 5 sets I've had changed he did. I'll definately be a repeat customer.

Kind of looks like a planet. Could make a good NRA advertisement.

Complete adrenalin rush. If anyone, besides a seasoned vet is in the same situation, it could go down in a similar fashion. No matter how many times we play certain sanarios out in our heads, in a real life critical situation you will be in a panic. Training,Training, and then a Lot More Training for anyone who carrys a gun in my opinion. Of course correct training is more important, and I've seen my share of so called experts (according to them) training people, who will eventually get someone hurt. If you think your an expert, at least buy a video, and learn something.

This thread was started on the 12th.

Ain't that a good warm and fuzzy feeling having an AR at home? Congrats.

Did it stop firing when you let go of the trigger, or continuous nonstop with one pull and release? In the panic state you probably didn't want to let go. If it didn't stop after trigger release, lock it up until you can get it to a gunsmith. If it did, just get it to a gunsmith, or sell it to me.
