It may have been brought up before, and I don’t know the details on the server… Is it possible to increase the attachment/photo size to 10 MB?

Thanks guys! It’s definitely a step up from the basement main room with portable racks. I can also leave town with less concern now :) My brother has suggested hiding the door as well — he does carpentry, so I suggested he come over take care of it for me…. No luck yet. lol It would be easy to frame...

I needed a better secure place to store my collection — leaving a bit of space for growth. Back in January I planned everything out and decided to covert an unfinished basement room (3 sides are concrete foundation) into a walk in gun room. I went with a security steel mesh under the sheet rock for ...

Remington is hitting the shelf too — it’s available on the Remington website for an absurd price at the moment. But will be probably going for the same price as the Hornady is it comes into stock at different stores.

Nice find! Looks to be in great shape. I “think” a S&W that early should have the ribbed hammer. Looks pristine for its age. Pulled the grips yet? Matching? My hammer is smooth — I was watching or read somewhere it was around serial number 16000 that they went to the smooth hammer. I understand...

I was window shopping on Gun Broker the other day and decided to follow an auction on an M1917 Smith and Wesson — towards the end of the auction I couldn’t resist and jumped in during the last 15 minutes and came out on top. I was particularly motivated as I had just watched Raiders of the Lost Ark ...

Yes it is — $3.75 a round.
