I could almost be content just collecting

old "shooter" Colt revolvers. I keep a dozen or so on my GB watchlist starting under $200. They usually double, sometimes more, before they go off. But if I can just catch someone napping.... BAM, I'm in. Pocket, Police, Official Police, Agent, Viper, varied Gen. of Detectives. Many more too.

I am still trying to figure out which number (?), and find a correct Tyler grip adapter for this little 90 yr. old. Huey gave me a sampling of some lead HP bullets. I was going to buy some bars of pink soap to see if they did anything in the way of expansion. Note the bargain enhancing chipped grips. There is a trick to removing grips preventing this. Back out the grip screw, then give it a gentle whack to pop the grip off the frame peg. Even pressure.

I always gently whack

the frame for grip removal. Sometimes it's counterproductive to prying them off when you whack a little too hard and the panel pops off then bounces off the table onto the floor.. .

try taking the screw out of one side and put it

in the other side. It will only go in the depth of the screw threads but once it is in there wiggle the part of the screw that sticks up. That is what we normally do for stuck grips.

Will do. Thanks Gary.
