  1. Review: Smith & Wesson SW22 Victory Target Gun

    Interesting pistol - thanks for the review. I'm still a buck mark fan. BTW, I think that all of the older slab-sided BMs with the silver frame are actually nickle-plated. Mine is, anyway (the barrel is in storage), and all of the ones that I've seen personally are the same way.
  2. Afghanistan Martini-Henry

    That's funny. As I was doing the paperwork to ship the Snider-Enfield home I was offered $600 for it. I passed, and it's hanging in a place of honor in my study.
  3. Browning Buck Marks!

    Here's an updated group shot - from left to right: Nickle-plated BM w/ TacSol barrel & grips, Challenger III, BM w/ 4" threaded TacSol barrel, Nomad, Medalist, 5.5" Target, 10" Silhouette.
  4. Afghanistan Martini-Henry

    I didn't mean to buy another rifle at the market yesterday. I've already gotten a couple, plus various knives, swords, and axes. This carbine, however, proved irresistible. It's a Snider-Enfield, which is a cartridge conversion of a muzzle-loading firearm. Add the mother of pearl inlays and I...
  5. Ruger SP101 .22

    I've heard a different explanation on why they discontinued them. What I heard was that when Ruger switched over to a longer frame for the SP101 to accommodate .357, they had a bunch of the shorter frames left over. They made the .22's to make use of those frames, and when the frames were gone...
  6. Browning Buck Marks!

    Nope, no bending required. Just flip it.
  7. Browning Buck Marks!

    As far as I know there is no significant changes in the BM series that impacts the triggers. The target models have factory adjustable triggers and don't need the flip, but the flip worked just fine on my newish one. The only thing I could say is to try it and see. It's a 5 minute job, and...
  8. Taurus 1911 38 Super

    Sounds like a good pistol. Got any pics?
  9. Afghanistan Martini-Henry

    I recently picked up a couple of blades to go with the Martini-Henry
  10. Afghanistan Martini-Henry

    I *think* so since it's an antique / over 100 years old.
  11. Afghanistan Martini-Henry

    I've recently been moved to the Kabul office of my company to provide planning support for Afghanistan military bases. There's good & bad parts, but today was one of the good: I was able to visit the Friday market at Camp Eggers. Here's today's loot - a rug and a Martini-Henry. The...
  12. Browning Buck Marks!

    Yes, the gold trigger adds some bling, but the good news is that it's easy to remove and refinish to something you'd like better. There's also some aftermarket triggers out there that come in other colors.
  13. Browning Buck Marks!

    My Silhouette w/10" Barrel My Buck Mark Carbine - Uses the same magazines as the pistols. Great gun, but I find myself picking up my 10/22 when it's time to head to the range.... (BTW, it's for sale if you're interested - just look under my user name)
  14. Browning Buck Marks!

    I've owned a lot of .22 pistols. Ruger Mk I/II/IIIs, Walther P22, S&W 22a, etc. - they've all been sold in favor of Browning Buck Marks. There's a number of reasons: Trigger - The Brownings have the best trigger out there for affordable 'plinking' pistols. There's also a cheap (free!) &...
