BWW is terrible. That sign is specifically from their Texas locations nonethless! I've seen it on the storefront glass when working in Houston. For NJ Wings, the Pic II!

Touch base with me before doing patchwork if it comes to that...

Who the heck let Charles Ramsey speak anyway??? Oh, I know why... He's OK violating PA State Law by grabbing guns from PA CCWs...

I do not own one, but spent 4 days doing close quarter training with it in 2008. This is not a target shooting rifle by any means, but it's damn accurate running 62gr FMJ! Has a lot of advantages of the AR-15 platform for close quarters, but that's also it's primary target function. If memory serves, it was nearly $3K new back then!!!

Enjoy the .44Mag!

Seeing the hole a full power round of 44Mag can punch - PRICELESS! Next step in owning big bore is reloading or selling, the choice will be the OP's.

Yes, there's a post already on the forum. I'm taking off work to be there.

Oh, I dunno about Colt being a better revolver. Many fine revolvers made by Colt, anf they aren't so pricey but some perhaps unduly wearing the the sky high price tag. Especially the tendency for the snakes to jump time...

556s are very nice rifles! I've shot a few, including a 556R, and very accurate. Enjoy it! Hope you can afford to feed it in these times!

Yes, the compensator works. However, for a .44Mag I'd take a longer barrel over compensated myself.

The V-comp? If so, fine.

Osage County Guns. They're the ones running the auction jamesbod linked and their contact information can be found on the auction or with a quick google. Done much business with them. Chris is a good guy.

Wheelgunners don't let fellow wheelgunners buy Taurus! Give Osage a call for the Smith. Talk to Chris. See if he can work you some better numbers off the auction and have it sent to your Jersey FFL.

LOL! I can't bear to see even the slighest bit of assertion that Feinstein's Bill is anything more than something that should be found in your local corner gas station's restroom and not for reading!

Very true... Given that it wears the Donald and James initial banner, it definitely dates post-1902 and I doubt past the first shuttering of the company by the brothers.

HANG ON!!! There's NO law yet. Nothing but a Bill. Don't give it any kind of legs.

There's no durability or longevity in a Taurus revolver. Stick with a Smith, and I would go pre-lock myself, but it's nothing to remove the lock from a newer one.

Gerry, articulately conveys your personal passion and support of pro-2A. My only comment would be to provide citation to some of the exertions you make, bascially to change the tone from a personal exertion/opinion to one of concrete fact. For instance, where you call out little to no benefit at great cost, reference the DOJ and FBI findings regarding the 94 AWB. However, you probably recall what I do for a living so tangible facts are important to me, and I personally think the only way to fight the anit sentiments is to not play the emotional game they are. I personally would also remove the very last sentence. Of course, just my suggestions. Good luck!

Griffin & Howe is good advice, but I believe they charge pretty good for appraisal services these days... If I saw it in-person, I could determine it's period more accurately, which might help you hunt some free information down online.

Pretty broad question... Can you narrow down your interests? I'm an avid camper, outdoorsman, and shooter so maybe I can help.

It's actually Fraser. Appears to be a backlock hammer model and likely produced when Daniel Fraser's sons (the D&J) tried to struggle on with his business after his untimely death. Daniel Fraser was an extremely talented gunmaker. It would need to be examined more closely to identify time and condition to evaluate value. They can be extremely valuable, or not valuable at all depending on the abuse of time.

Contact NJ2AS first and get their take on them first.

Certainly happy to make the drive. Keep posted with details of the when and where.

Faxes away! My fax took 10 attempts to get through, keep sending to overwhelm!
