Cry once and get a 73 Uberti makes a 73 Ladies and youth carbine. They also make a 19" round barrel 73 carbine, and a 18" half round barrel rifle very light and easy swing.

West Point Grad Needs Help

Lol! No Army Captain would abreviate Captain with "Capt" instead of the proper CPT, nor would any member of the 82nd spell Airborne with two words. -
Flying to shoots with firearms
John Barleycorn, SASS #76982 replied to John Barleycorn, SASS #76982's topic in SASS Wire
Never had a problem either. I sure hope you are correct. I hate knee jerk, reactionary rules caving to the cries that "We have to do something!" -
Well in light of today's events, my guess is that it is about to become much more difficult to fly with your firearms.

Here is the legal definition Gun Control Act Definitions Silencer 18 U.S.C., § 921(A)(24) The term “Firearm Silencer” or “Firearm Muffler” means any device for silencing, muffling, or diminishing the report of a portable firearm, including any combination of parts, designed or redesigned, and intended for the use in assembling or fabricating a firearm silencer or firearm muffler, any part intended only for use in such assembly or fabrication.

It's a stay open feature that good SKB smiths can cut into the lug. Not a mod to attempt yourself. It was very useful before the new closed action rule but still a great option to keep it open when discarding.

They also haven't been made in 30 years, so scarcity also drives prices. Pards have no problem paying $1350-$1650 for a race ready 73 but moan about the price of a tuned SKB or BSS.

Can't go wrong with either, I like Rugers, they are tuff, American made guns.

There was a recall on those. Go to the Springfield website to check serial numbers. If your pistol was upgraded there will be a roll pin in the grip safety. -
What's it Worth

For current prices go on gunbroker and do an advanced search of completed auction where the item sold. Narrow your search by caliber, barrel length ect. 357s are doing very well, 45s not so much. -

Time for airing of grievances, and feats of strength. -
No more bidding on auction brokers for me
John Barleycorn, SASS #76982 replied to Warden Callaway's topic in SASS Wire Saloon
I think there is some misunderstanding about how Gunbroker auctions work. Any bid in the lat 15 minutes adds 15 minutes to the auction. eBay does not do this and thus you have sniping on eBay. If you bid a Gunbrker auction with one minute left it will reset to 15 minutes this will continue with each additional bid. It will also send you an email telling you you have been outbid so you have time to decide if you want to increase your bid or let it go. -
No, the only pump action shotgun allowed is the Winchester 1897 and its copies.
