I've seen the other range denizens shoot... their comments don't bother me... usually. I had to combine my hobbies on my last trip... I decided to bring my 617 and crossdress. One big meanie noticed my range bag didn't match my shoes - and told me I didn't know how to accessorize. I just hiked up my skirt and left!

Seriously, who cares what you plink with? I always offer a detractor - or just a new range mate - the opportunity to shoot my 4" 617. Their minimal response after shooting it is "Wow!". I've had several questions as to what I'd sell it for. Share the knowledge as to why you enjoy shooting it - including the ammo availability and cost.

At Tuesday's range trip, I had actually gone 'minimalist'... I shot the 4" 617 and 4" 64. My 4" 651, a .22WMR, came home clean. No 625, 627, 629, or even that 632 would be found in my bag - just a .22 and a .38. I had fun... lots of fun. I may go back this week - with the same revolvers. Oh... I don't crossdress... don't have the legs.
