    Dirty Harry's cylinder rotation.........

    Why does Clint Eastwood's Model 29 cylinder rotate when he pulls the trigger on an empty chamber at the end of this clip? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Xjr2hnOHiM I have watched this a lot of times but never noticed it before....... maybe discussed before on the forum? cheers, John

    My Model 18-4 again.....

    Hi, I did some shooting with the new grips on the Model 18 up at our cabin last week... a good fit for my hand & fast 'on target' aiming (due to the flat surfaces of the cutouts). Much easier to use than the S&W target grips or the smaller original grips the M18 came with. cheers, -John

    Beauty with a gun...

    “We live in a very prominent area and my fiancee wears a $60,000 engagement ring,” he said. “The pizza man knew we had money because sometimes we needed change for a $100 bill when he came to deliver pizza.” Anyone know where I can get a job as an arborist? His big mouth will get them robbed...
