I read a post somewhere about a handgun class...seems only one person brought a revolver, and a lot of the younger studs there thought it was quaint - to the point of being amused that anyone would actually carry such an antiquated thing.
Well, I will certainly admit to being old, and even the auto pistols I normally carry are antique designs - 1911, PPK, and an 80+ year old Spanish .25 ACP modeled partly after the 1906 Browning-but I KNOW they work and they have been effective for a lot of years, and they still are even if they ain't "modern".
FWIW, I have been shooting handguns for over 45 years now, and have only had to pull one for real one time....and those young men DID NOT laugh at that old worn Highway Patrolman... They just kind of turned and went away, quickly.
I still have a Highway Patrolman , right here in fact, and you might think it's an antique but I will bet you can't out run it...
OK, thanks for reading...I feel better now.
