I'm not placing bets one way or the other. I have little confidence in the legislature. When the time comes, I'll write to my representatives. Everyone else should do the same. I think the hysterical objections of the Florida law have been proven false, by anyone who looks at the facts, and similar ...

Consignment sale

Consignment is the easiest way, but be sure you have some kind of written contract. I heard a story about a guy who left gun on consignment at a gun store.

Re: Private sell of handgun - legalities?

The only way to tell whether the buyer is completely clean is (a) he has a CHL, or (b) run the transfer through an FFL. They charge about $25 fo...

Re: Thanks For All The Help!!!

It sounds like you lucked out at the gun shop. I hope you enjoy your new-old Dan Wesson for many years. If you want to complete your set with authentic parts, the gauges sell for about $15 on eBay. The factory must have been having a bad day when they shipped mine, because the gauge is simply a stri...

Re: Help With What Model Dan Wesson I Have

Hello. I'm a friend of ElGato and he told me about this message this morning. I joined the forum just so I could reply. Nice forum, friendly and informative. Your Dan Wesson is almost certainly a model 15. The features that identify a model 15 are -- stamped "Dan Wesson Arms, Monson, Mass."...
