MY LITTLE .44

[keith44spl]

Dave—I bet you could shoot more than their toe off with your .44!

I wouldn't say to an ascertainty how it would turn out in the furture,
but I do know how somethings have worked out in the past.

To stay on the subject at hand, in addition to my 44 sidearm,
I keep a short 45-70 '86 close at hand as well.

If a protection order (by whatever title known) works, it probably wasn't needed. The real benefit in having such an order is that a JUDGE has reviewed whatever facts were alleged to justify the order, and concluded that there was a sufficient basis. That can be a big point in one's favor in the event of a future use of force. Not controlling by a long shot, but a nice piece of evidence to have.

Son of Sam would be proud of her.

Totally off topic, but just a question for some of you LEO's. I'm sure many incarcerated "bad guys" have said that to the person who put them behind bars, but in reality, what's a ballpark percentage of those who actually try to follow through with that threat? Any guesses?

I've read that restraining orders and no contact orders are pretty much useless when you've got a bozo who isn't thinking real straight in the first place.

I know of two who tried to make good on their threats. One was warned off by associates. The other got an extra 10 years to think about it. There was no paper involved. They represented less than .01 percent.

Reminds me of a thing that was said to my better half some years back, she was purchasing a Dirty Harry special for our son who was too young at the time. The dealer looked at her and asked "A little something for your purse Mam?" True story.

I remember reading a funny story years ago about a little old lady who shot a car thief out in her driveway. Since this was not her first time, and she was using a . 44 magnum, she had the presence of mind to put on her ear protection. Something about the look of confusion on the perps face as he eyed the nice old lady in the doorway with the earmuffs and the BIG handgun... Mas Ayoob maybe??

Charter has out now a "Son of Sam" version with original 3" tapered blued barrel and wooded stocks.

Neat guns and the .44 packs a huge punch, but I never found the Bulldog to be all that concealable. It's a thick gun.

I'll bet the hood she shot wins the Walter Brennan impersonation contest in the prison.

 

[OLDSTER]

A .44 in the foot--YEOW!!!!!!

Why do I get the feeling that most of the miscreants in the clink don't know who Walter Brennan is??

I was going to say Amos McCoy but figured that reference was out further in the weeds.

My no contact orders are .357 Magnum, .38 Special, and 9x19mm. My restraining orders are 5.56x45mm and 12 gauge.

The original Charter Arms Bulldog was quite concealable for me, because the wooden grips constituted a distinct ledge on the right side. It was very secure carried IWB with no holster or clip, far more so than any J frame. I carried it at ten o'clock wearing a suit.

Guess those 44s just like to shoot low. The foot.

Sounds like about a foot low .

And your namesake will penetrate the cab of a '65 Dodge pickup and leave a fist-size dent in the dash.

In Texas, a protective order is the only paper that carries the force of law and a .357 magnum is the only thing that carries force of will.
