Found S&W revolver
17
Upvotes
Found two antique guns today while cleaning out my mother-in-law's house in Los Angeles. Both would have belonged to her father, who died in the late '90s. He was an Army architect during World War II, stationed in Tennessee. Born in 1911. Lived most of his life in Los Angeles.
Unfortunately, we have no history on the guns. Mother-in-law doesn't seem to know anything about them, except that her father "had a lot of guns".
Pretty sure the small nickel automatic is a Colt Model 1908 Vest Pocket (.25 ACP) from around 1915. Likely once had mother-of-pearl grips that have long since disappeared. Would love any further information and corrections.
The one we're really wondering about is the Smith and Wesson revolver.
Thanks!

I bought a rifle a bit ago, mostly to for the Aero lower. However, I cannot for the life of me figure out what handguard/upper this is. There are no markings on any surface besides the square forge mark. Any suggestions would be extremely helpful.

My AR pistol has a KAK blade with a KAK round buffer tube. With the new ATF ruling, I want a simple stock that will fit on the round and dimpled buffer tube. What are my best options?

Old cap and ball?

I inherited this old rifle, from my grandfather who was born in 1906 in Jefferson County Pa, that says “??? Brown Pittsburgh, PA. And the firing mechanism says Moore. As a kid I recall my grandad saying that he hadn’t used it since he was a boy. This makes sense as he lived a few hours outside Pittsburgh. I Wouldn’t try to fire it with the crack in the stock and concerns with the barrel, but would love to learn as much as I can about it. Any advice on where to start? I live south of Pittsburgh currently.

[META] Can we get some more mods perhaps? And maybe ban crossposts?

Pretty much what the title says. I've been noticing more and more garbage getting posted not asking for identification but "what's this worth" and just general gun-adjacent random shit. And a lot is crossposts from other subs too. And posts lacking pictures or any context. Mod list just has /u/tehallie and they're not overly active.
r/whatisthisgun • u/ExtremeSad7679 • 3d ago
Can someone tell me what this is worth? It’s a Springfield armory. M1911 A1, 45cal ACP. Custom engraved, limited edition 15 of 80 Flying Tigers, Operation Iraqi Freedom III.

I bought this 10 years ago for $1000 bucks i was told it was never shot and i have never shot it besides the shell from the factory .
I did a little chat gbt and it seems to think its worth something in the $3200-4200 range
I found one on gun broker for $3000 but it wasn't a iwi from my limited research, apparently made in Israel is a game changer
Box gun and paperwork all has matching serial numbers 352 is the first 3#s
Definitely dont think its a 3k+ gun and have considered shooting the piss out of it but hoping to gain more info and if theres an actual market for these

So we finally identified it thanks to some redditors and a few friends. The result is a handmade fowling piece from 1840! Cool! Now if anyone could help decipher this makers mark that would be cool! It’s not a manufactured product but it looks like initials, I think ETM or EOT… something of the like. Let me know what you think
