I had to buy a second copy that one off ebay. I won't say how much I paid for it, heck, I don't remember how much I paid to tell the truth, but it was woth it. I had a copy, of it and several other such magazines back in the day. At two of them were by Skeeter, but my youngest son, who was...

When I got my first job as an armed security guard, MANY years ago, my training consisted of being told "Don't shoot yourself, or anyone else unless you have to" (I wondered under what cirucmstances I would "have to" shoot myself?) and being issued a little booklet called "You and your...

I carry a revolver and two extra speedloaders. Why? Why not? I've got 'em and it seems silly to leave them at home.

Good pickup on the Model 67. Great revolvers and those Uncle Mikes grips are hard to beat. I never worried too much about "the lock" and these days the only time I think about it when I'm reading one of these threads. I've only got one lock gun currently, a 29-10, but I've owned I don't know...

What? No dogs playing poker? Some list. :rofl:

I do the same thing. I'm that guy at the end of the line who only shoots five times. I don't do any single-actions anymore, but even with the one semi-auto I've got, I only load five. Why? Because that's what I want to do. And I hate to get to the end of a box of ammo and have two left...

When I went to buy my first handgun, I knew I wanted either a Model 19 (as discussed above) or a Colt Python. The Python was priced about twice what the Model 19 was, so I became a Model 19 fan. Never regreted that, but I always wanted a Python. I finally got one in 2020 when Colt...

I've always gotten good service from Taurus revolvers. I've got a 327 now that is my EDC. I've owned a bunch of them over the years. I can't say I've shot them a lot, they sort of come and go, but they all worked as well as anything else. Maybe not as pretty, but solid, servicable guns. I...

When I was a young fellow, I walked up to the magazine rack at a Peoples Drug Store and saw a Guns and Ammo magazine. First one I ever saw. An entire magazine about nothing but guns? Who knew? On the cover was a picture of a revolver. The most beautiful revolver I'd ever seen. Across the...

As my wife would say, "I hate you. And I mean that in the nicest possible way." Congratulations Mark. How's the Uber business on the graveyard shift? Ramen noodles ain't that bad.

Thanks JM. The one I ordered, at least the picture on the website, is like the second one you've got pictured. I'm 99.9% sure I'll never actually wear the buckle, I just wanted it for grins and giggles so to speak. I'm sure I will shoot the gun at least a few times for the same reason.

I thought about one of those, but decided in for a penny, in for a pound. ;) Nobody ever blamed my bullets. I've got four sisters, and Barbie's shoes caught all that flack. :rofl:

Anybody got a North American Arms Mini-22 revolver with the belt buckle? The big rodeo champion belt buckle that is. I've wanted one since I first heard of them many years ago. Actually had one for a while, but I was doing a lot of trading back then and someone wanted it more than I did. I...

I get mine off Ebay. Just do a search for (insert caliber here) "snap caps" or "Dummy rounds". I think most of mine have come from a guy called 82ndparachuterigger or something like that. They're basically just an inert cartridge with the primer pocket filled with a rubber type compound...

I don't know if they do it anymore. Now that I think about it, it's been years since I've been stopped at one, so maybe they don't. But they sure did "back in the day."

I don't know about that specific model, but I've always gotten good products from Taurus. I had a Tracker 44 not too long ago that I only got rid of because the opportunity for a Model 29 came along, but the Tracker was a really nice gun. Even had a really nice blue finish. I don't think they...

They never did. I had a 38 M&P not too long ago that the S/N indicated was made in 1916. On the butt was a factory mark indicating that it was returned to the factory in 6/16. No idea why, I'm too cheap to spring for a letter. And it locked up on me after a few rounds in 2024, so I guess not...

Not bad. Not bad a'tall!

I'm a fan of 4" barrels, but even I have found room for a couple of 3" ones. Smith and Wesson 3rd Model Hand Ejector, I frame, in 32 Smith and Wesson Long. From about 1920. Barrel is actually 3 1/4" but close enough At the other end of the spectrum, a brand new Taurus 327 T.O.R.O., in 327...

I had to look that up. I had no idea what it was. Now, I figure I can either get two while they're cheap, or just keep driving my Fiat. :rofl: I think the Fiat looks pretty good right now.
