Default Hello & thanks for being here!

Hello to a long time lurker who finally signed up. I've learned so much from your posts over the years! That information likely has something to do with there being 8 S&Ws around here. My old K22 Combat Masterpeice is what taught me how to shoot double action to the point that I only have two single actions left, a Ruger Bearcat with aluminum frame and a Blackhawk 357 maximum (tiny and giant). I also enjoy my old S&W 1000 12 ga with Full, Mod, & Skeet barrels. The Skeet barrel is really the ticket for light in the hands quail or as the second light waterfowl gun loaded with steel 4s paired with a SP-10 loaded with BBs. One for ducks one for geese.

I'm a pretty young guy and it's VERY FUN to outshoot a 1911 guy with an "old" K frame 38/357. Most guys 30's and younger have never seen a double action shooter in action.

Thanks again for such a great page.
