Default Retro MP

After months of mostly 45s and 9m, I spent a weekend carrying and shooting MP revolvers. Started by locating a pair of MPs for sale, a M10 and M65, both 4" heavy barrels. John threw in 4 HKS and 200 Win White box 38s. I pulled my old M65 4" and IWB leather and proceeded to shoot most of my loaded standard and plus ammo with a few mags thrown in. While at it, also tested a SP101. Very interesting shooting. Had a great time! Never felt handicapped with old guy guns.

Anyone else shoot K4 anymore?

Nothing against 4in K Frames, but I am continuing to indulge my fetish for 2in M10 and M64.

But my prefered 9mm and .45 are both discontinued single stack metal frame DA/SA , so which way most labels me "old guy" .

Same here, 2" model 10 and two 3rd gen .45's.

I've been really liking the 10 and practicing with it both dry and live fire.

Great "little" gun!

I have a M10 2" with bobbed hammer and boot grips planned for a future shooting day. Need to load some wad cutters.
