    Early Model 38: Michigan State Police??

    I have one that came with Uncle Mike's boot grips, and no flat latch. V on the cylinder as well. Had it for several years and carry it often. Easier to haul around than the stainless 649 versions I picked up first.

    good books and novels for the winter

    Jim Curtis, who blogs as Old NFO, has a series of novels called The Gray Man. The series starts with Vignettes and goes to Sunset. Set on the Texas border with an older lawman as the protagonist. I liked it enough to send one of them to a friend in New Zealand a couple Christmases back. He...

    GOOD COMMERCIALS

    Many years ago there was a commercial from one of the phone companies (I think.) An female operator took a Christmas phone call from a soldier deployed overseas. When he got done calling home, he passed the phone to another guy, and so on and so on. The tag line was when another phone company...

    Is everyone ready for Thanksgiving???

    Nowhere near ready here. And my wife caught a cold. I may be going to Burger King for Thanksgiving Dinner. At least, as my wife said, "No one is visiting for the holiday."

    38 special brass- what brand do you like by best? Any to avoid?

    I like Winchester brass the best. Still load some other brands though. Remington seems thinner in the case wall than other types. No problem because of it, however.

    Why I Dumped My .38 $pecial.

    I haven't bought commercial .38 Special loads for quite a while. Have a pile of reloads on hand though.

    New to 41 mag.

    I second StarLine as a source of brass. I shot some bowling pin matches with some of my .41 Magnums. Launched the pins impressively with 215 or 220 LSWC bullets and Unique powder to drive them. Lots of fun.

    Beer.....

    Can't drink beer much these days. But, long ago and far away, (Florida) an ice cold beer in a frosted mug may have saved my life. I had gone to a Ed's barbecue joint for lunch. Goat was on the menu and I asked for the hot goat barbecue. It came with one slice of white bread and I ordered...

    Well!...it is a S&W

    I shot an M76 at a range in Minnesota years ago. It was fast, loud, fun.

    Rifle/Revolver Pairs

    I have a Marlin 1894 FC in .41 Magnum. I could pair it with several .41 Magnum handguns. Right now the most likely would be a three inch 657. Or one of the Ruger Redhawks, or a New Model Blackhawk in .41, or...
