What is a Forehand Arms 32 caliber six shot revolver Pat'd Dec 7 86 Jan 1 87 with FW on the grips worth?

Doing some research myself on this subject and have only been able to determine that the company was named Forehand from 1890 to 1902. It had originally been named Forehand & Wadsworth, and was renamed when Wadsworth retired. It was sold be the family in 1902 to Hopkins & Allen. Sorry this only gives a rough date, but so far this is all I have found. The first answer narrows the date of manufacture down to a 13 year period, and that is a pretty small window for an old gun. All I can add is that if they were still using leftover F&W grips, it was probably made fairly early in this period. Unfortunately, this is not enough to get an antique designation from the ATF since the model was still being made after 12/31/1898 and there are no records to prove which side of that arbitrary date yours was manufactured.

Which is the best way to grip a badminton racket?

Grip The choice of grip allows a player to increase the thickness of his racket handle and choose a comfortable surface to hold. A player may build up the handle with one or several grips before applying the final layer. Players may choose between a variety of grip materials. The most common choices are PU synthetic grips or toweling grips. Grip choice is a matter of personal preference. Players often find that sweat becomes a problem; in this case, a drying agent may be applied to the grip or hands, or sweatbands may be used, or the player may choose another grip material or change his grip more frequently. There are two main types of grip: replacement grips and overgrips. Replacement grips are thicker, and are often used to increase the size of the handle. Overgrips are thinner (less than 1 mm), and are often used as the final layer. Many players, however, prefer to use replacement grips as the final layer. Toweling grips are always replacement grips. Replacement grips have an adhesive backing, whereas overgrips have only a small patch of adhesive at the start of the tape and must be applied under tension; overgrips are more convenient for players who change grips frequently, because they may be removed more rapidly without damaging the underlying material

What is an overhead drop shot?

An overhead drop shot is played downwards like a smash, but instead of hitting hard towards the mid-court, the shot is played with less power and at a steeper angle so it lands in the fore-court area - generally around the service line.

In singles you should aim to play a drop shot more slowly and more steeply so that it lands as far forward as possible, increasing the distance your opponent has to move.

In doubles the drop shot can be played faster as it is more important to get the shuttlecock below the net before the opponent can attack it - in doubles the drop shot usually lands nearer the service line.

For more information about the tactical aspects of playing a drop shot in doubles see the related links.
