Thanks for all your help guys sorry it took me so long 2 respond on here they r lead and I ended up goin with 3.5 grns of bullseye testing it out it does what I need 2 and it doesn't recoil at all which is perfect bcc these rounds are for my 92 yr old grandmother

I'm sure this has been discussed before but I couldn't find it on here so is it possibile to make a j frame into a .44 special? I know it could only be a 4 shot weapon since the size of the cylinder is so small. Any feedback would be appreciated thank you

I always carry a Kel Ted p 11 9mm and a Kel Ted p3at .380 everywhere except into work and stick model 10 HB .38 in the car every morning but I have 3 children and live in a pretty bad area so I follow the "if it can go wrong it will go wrong" way of thinking

My wife and I both thank all of you for the nice comments and I have no idea how I found such a perfect woman so young just lucky and as for posting pics I would love to but I'm not very computer or camera savvy so much for the technology generation lol

So im pretty sure I have the coolest most perfect wife. I say that because when I came home from work she had a big smile on her face and said she had a surprise I look on the kitchen table and she got me a 1938 Tula arsenal hex reciever 91/30 mosin nagant and 100 rounds of ammo about half of...
