btw, I shot it more today and it's a way better range handgun than the glock - i like the weight, the distance between front/rear sights and the simple, intuitive design
It appears that you have been bitten by the revolver bug. You may not be experiencing the symptoms now, but give it a few more weeks. Months perhaps. Symptoms include:
- Weakness in knees and wallet at sight of a fine wheelgun, e.g. S&W Model 13, Colt DS, Colt Python, S&W Model 57.
- Mild/low voltage electric shocks, resulting from visiting pic-heavy threads such as this and drooling on the keyboard
- Denial (having acquired a wheelgun and swearing you will aquire no more - that your bases are covered)
- Sleepless nights spent dreaming of more wheelguns, usually within hours of swearing you wouldn't buy anymore
I could go on and on. And FYI, there is no cure. You can only temporarily ease the symptoms, by buying more wheelies
. BTW, that is a gorgeous Model 15-0 you have there. I am jealous! As ugaarguy suggests, it is probably worth more than your Glock, so don't carry it in a backpack thinking it's a $199 Taurus or Rossi (no offense at all to said Taurus or Rossi). Perhaps a 3", well worn S&W Model 10 for carry?
Iggy,
Your photo of your fraternal twin Models 14 and 17 looks similar to mine; think they're related?
17-0 on top, 14-4 on bottom (EDIT: eek, don't know why the pic is so small):
