Greetings from Spain.
Hi.
The first thing to say is, my apologies for my poor english.
I have recently returned to sport shooting from a ten years forced stop for health issues.
For a few months ago I can shoot with a 22lr carbine again.
Although to return to shoot with short gun I had to do the whole process again for the license.
Here, that is a huge exercise of patience ĦĦĦLOL!!!
The ponit is that I pretend to return to precision and IPSC, and do (as far as I can) Steel Challenge. This is a very little (or hardly any) modality extended here. And I´m one of the few who want to do it with revolver.
That is the reason why I bought a SMITH&WESSON K38 14-4.
With it I can shoot precision and star training IPSC, but..... for a purely commercial matter, buy a some S&W here are extremely expensive. In fact the price of the 986 that I like a lot, here it´s the double that in USA.
International trade things
For that reason I intend to use the 14-4 only for precision and find a 14-6 for IPSC.
As my physical conditions prevent me from moving fast, it will be necessary to compensate with greater aim. Or so understand it.
Thanks to the forum for allowing me to be in it, and to all participants and their wonderful teachings.
Thanks for your time and effort. It is worth appreciating
Best regards.

Thank you very much NYlakesider, although I must confess that for certain parts of the grammar I use a translator.
That helps me to improve and is good for fluid communication.

Buenas noches Mrnurse.
Son unas escopetas muy buenas y muy bien trabajadas. Enhorabuena.
A nivel deportivo si. En armas cortas va por categorías en las que se va subiendo participando en tiradas. En tercera categoría solo se puede tener una. El calibre da igual. En segunda categoría 6 y en primera 10. Luego cuando se consigue ser Maestro Tirador ya se pueden tener más.
Para uso particular, si no perteneces a las fuerzas armadas o a la policía, es mucho más complicado. Necesitas justificar una razón para ello y no la conceden fácilmente.
Good evening Mrnurse.
They are very good shotguns and very well worked. Congratulations.
On a sporting level, yes. In small arms it goes by categories in which it is promoted participating in rolls. In the third category you can only have one. The caliber does not matter. In the second category 6 and in the first, ten. Then when you become a Master Shooter you can have more.
For private use, if you do not belong to the armed forces or the police, it is much more complicated. You need to justify a reason for it and they don't easily grant it.

Welcome from Oklahoma! I hope that your health improves and gives you more flexibility in your shooting sports. I don't speak or understand Spanish, although I hear a lot of it. I just speak Okie.

Hi ancient-one
I had a very delicate second hip operation, so running is over for me. But I walk pretty fast !!!LOL!!!
Here in my city we have an example to follow.
So we have no excuses for not getting things done. Complaining is not an option.
The good thing is not what language is spoken, but knowing how to understand each other well.
Thank you very much

If you don't mind, I'll put it in English, that's how everyone understands it. More than anything for a matter of respect.
I live on the north coast of Spain, in Asturias.
I trust you will enjoy your visit to this country. We are small but from very varied climates.
Thank you very much.

Your English is fine but the English people don't like us calling what we speak here 'English', so we speak 'American'.
Translated that's HELLO and WELCOME to the forum. It's great to have you.
