Author Topic: Headstamp Identification (Read 1300 times)

A few months ago I came home from a gun show with a truckload (almost) of .38 Special shells. I don't use them too much, but they were cheap. While I was sorting them I came across a bunch of headstamps that I couldn't identify, which brings me to my question - is there a book or maybe a website that would identify those and others I may run into? Not too important, but it might be interesting.

Very useful link for this forum, and one I didn't have. Thank you for sharing it Steyr.

Thanks guys. I knew someone would come up with someplace like those sites if I waited long enough.

I'm not a collector, but it bothers me when I run across something I can't identify - seems to happen more often as I get older.
