Just remember that any gun used for self defense may be held indefinitely in police custody. While there it will not be cleaned, not even to have blood wiped off the outside, as that is evidence. Also, the evidence lockers I have seen were not really configured for the kind of careful storage...

Parts can also be ordered from Numrich arms. Had the ame problem a while back.

The ACP rounds probably won't have enough power to cycle the action so the auto becomes a single shot.

Don't know if they still do, but Black Hills used to offer that load. I still have a few boxes somewhere.

I, too, have short palms and short fingers. I generally carry with the finger-groove type combat stocks which fill in behind the trigger or the magnas. One advantage of the smaller stocks is more clearance for the speed loaders. They are also easier to hide. I find the high positioning...

Georgia Arms, I believe, offers a 240 grain lead SWC at about 1100 fps. They shoot well and are very controlable with practice, decent prices too.

Georgia Arms make good ammo and the prices are as good as any other factory ammo I've found. Their 240 grain lead loads in .44 mag are equivalent to the old Winchester midrange loading (about 1100 fps).

210 grs at 1200 fps Sounds like Winchester's Silvertip .44 mag load.

Once you get to know them well, each has their own personality, just like people. Over time accomodations are reached with reguard to walking speed, house rules, etc. Who accomodates depends on whether the dog sees you as the leader of the pack.

The Pesident's Analyst with James Coburn. All the (FBI take off) agents carried Magnum .44's.

Now wait just a minute! That would mean your own family would be your inlaws! You better think about that!

What he said. Snake/rat shot has almost no penetration. If you can't use at least a .22 to dispatch an animal, get a hammer. It will be more merciful.

I don't think your case is pertinent in Florida As you have a Florida permit. It would be an issue in Colorado but carrying in Florida on a Florida permit doesn't involve reciprocity. Just my take and worth every cent you payed for it.

Since I hunt alone people are alway asking me "Arn't you afraid to die alone?" My usual response is "No matter where you are or how many people are watching, when you die, YOU DIE ALONE". Personally, I'd like to manage it in such a fashion as to provide an enduring mystery. At least then...
