    Re: Can Anyone Tell me about this Pistol?

    Gypsy,

    no idea on ID.

    Agree with Rich; the hard lines look to me like a
    kit gun that has not been finished. (very little
    work done on the basic parts, squares and straight
    lines).

    Have looked a many many kit guns, but never seen
    anything like the one you have.

    I know I'm no help, but I try

    have a good un............
    In the academies many books, at the circus many sacks of peanuts, at the club rooms many cigar butts.

    Hey Gypsy - here ya go. Dixie Gun Works sells a kit from Classic Arms, called the "Snake eye". .41 cal brass frame, double barrel. Wouldn't EVER want to shoot it, but a cool find, none the less.

    at this time i understand that long island new york has a gun buy back program going on...the city is paying $150.00 for ANY gun turned in....so if you have broken, useless, or cheap saturday night specials now would be the time to capitalize on it at some stupid governments expense..........gldhntr

    Yeah but the gun buy back program was made to incourage people to turn any guy in not working or working did matter it's a gun control thing just look at CA. in time you won't be able to have any kind of firearm knife or a tool of anytype. That's UnAmerican to me

    One of the first action's that take place before an armed society is overthrown, they try to get the people's weapon's. History is repeating. In the past, free countries go through several phases before taken over. They get it by conquest, or consent of the own people.
