  1. Black Powder Shooting / Muzzleloaders / Handguns
    Hi all, I wanted to share this old gun I inherited a couple years ago: From what I've read it was made by a fellow named Sullivan Forehand some time between 1890 and 1902. There seems to be differing opinions as to whether these are "good" or "junk". Most of the parts have serial numbers...

    I have a 38 S&W wont fully index, falls about 1/8 short, you can push it the rest and it will stop in line. Not sure what the fix is, just replaced the mainspring because mine was in 2 pieces when I got it. About to remove the nickel and high temp salt blue it. But definitely need to solve this...

    We had an amazing response to introducing the Wrapid Loader directly to the US market state side. As of now it only comes in a 6 round version made for .38/357 caliber revolvers. It fits 90%+ of DA six shooters in those calibers. We are looking to possibly expand the design to fit other...

    I recently got this revolver from someone else who didn't know exactly what it was either. After a week of deep internet research I can't figure it out. The closest I can figure is that it's a Norwegian 1893 Nagant. With that being said, I keep finding small differences with every modle of the...
