I used to have a pretty high tolerance for recoil. I have previously shot some "big" caliber guns: A Rigby .470 Nitro Express double rifle which had a real sizable "push" but wasn't a particularly sharp "hit" to the shoulder you knew that something really big came out the other end. I also shot...

If given a choice between a Python and a Colt Shooting Master both in like new condition, I would choose the Shooting Master - Without a doubt.

With a hot load, you get legitimate deer killing performance out of the .357

Since I already own a CZ75B and a couple of Hipowers, I'll have to "vote" for either a Walther P88 or Sig P210. I like blued steel.

The Second Amendment isn't about crime or crime rates. It's about pre-existing rights that can't be taken away.

Sheriffs' have been ignoring the magazine law.

Magtech .38 Special - Two complete misfires and one squib that lodged in the barrel of my Colt OMM. Luckily, I was able to extract the bullet without any further damage.

Some ranges, ours included, DO NOT allow cross draw holsters - Too easy to flash yourself especially when running against the clock.

Funny that there are many more NIB Pythons today than there were 10 years ago. What's the point? An "investment?" I own several Colt revolvers, all of which are worth a LOT more than 10 years ago. They all get shot. I sure as heck am not going to leave an unfired gun to my heirs. This "snake...

Moot point if you carry a revolver.

9mm for me. I happen to like my BHPs better than any other pistol.

My "best" - or "favorite" is my 1957 Colt Model 3-5-7. The gun has a single action trigger that is the very best I've ever experienced. They didn't make too many of these and collectors have discovered them and because of their quality and scarcity, are getting pretty expensive. I still shoot it...

The trigger on a MkIII can't be modified. It's a "get what you get" proposition. Some are pretty rough, others can actually be quite good. The cast pieces (MIM) can't be smoothed out because the hardened surfaces are very thin. I have a MkIII that has a reasonably good trigger and it has proven...

Colt 6" MkIII Colt 4" Model 3-5-7 (better than a Python - my opinion, of course)

This is an often overlooked revolver. Not many were produced and they're getting more valuable every day. Think of it as a Python without the barrel shroud. If you are going to use yours as a shooter, you might consider changing the grips as the full checker grips have become incredibly...
