Today I'll carry my Colt Detective Special in an IWB holster from Privateer Leather. It will be loaded with semi-wadcutters.
It's Wheelgun Wednesday

In before the "trouble doesn't take a day off" crowd chimes in and let's you know that might get you killed on the streets...
Just kidding... good on ya!

Happy Wheelgun Wednesday, all!
This S&W 642, JW O’Rourke pocket holster, and Barranti 2x2x2 pouch are with me a huge chunk of time each day, often all-day. Sometimes the 642 is a solo; other times it’s a back-up to something bigger on the belt.

My revolvers have been "getting me killed on the street" since the 1980's.
Really tired of hearing the completely untrue "criminals are attacking in larger groups" every time a higher-capacity 9mm comes out. No, they are not. Buy the gun if you want, but please stop trotting out that lame rationalization.
This is the one that will be getting me killed today.

.38 S&W?!
You wouldn't even muster up the lowly .38 Special for your wheelgun needs?!
You are COMPLETELY asking for it, mister!

Somehow I knew somebody was going to "go there" with the .32 thing!

I have carried a lowly 22 mag as my primary carry gun before! Agast! Yet I live. I usually prefer a wheel gun with a cartridge that starts with 4, but sometimes right in the middle is nice...

I carry nothing at all. Couldn't hide one on my skinny old butt by any means and I am not going to carry a man purse. I am seldom out and about anymore and am particular where I go when I am. If you aren't a gang banger and there aren't a lot of of those your chances are higher to be struck by lightning or winning the lottery than getting into a shooting situation around here.

I have toted a S&W 317 with Mini-Mags a time or two...
...so I have been known to tempt fate myself!

I only had to go out today to pick up dog food, so I indulged in Wheelgun Wednesday. Of course, my Colts will get me killed on the street too, because everyone knows the backwards cylinder release precludes a fast-enough reload...
But he had a razor in his shoe for back-up... Don't have a razor but an Izula makes a good boot knife..

I'm pretty much back to "Wheelgun all week" these days. I'm too lazy to lug around a semi and a half box of ammo. If six rounds of 327 Magnum with a speedloader for a backup won't get me out of whatever trouble I somehow got myself into, well, I guess I'm just having a really bad day.
And this thing is a hoot to shoot with 32 Smith and Wesson Long, which I reload for now. Sort of between a 22 LR, and a 38 wadcutter. My old, arthritic hands appreciate that.
