    Model 28, what do I know, what do you know, how am I wrong?

    It's an inheritance. Getting a windfall of guns, ammo, and accessories isn't all it's cracked up to be. It's cool and the guns are cool, but there is a lot.......of everything. Two eyes, two ears, one brain, one mouth.....Look, Listen, Use, then speak if necessary. Took me long enough to...

    Trivia and a 586 no dash 8 3/8"

    Thank you and thank you for the info and further knowledge. There are more.It's been an undertaking to learn about these guns and appreciate them. I'm sharing them here because I think my uncle would appreciate it.

    Model 28, what do I know, what do you know, how am I wrong?

    Fellas, again, great advice and information. Lots of rabbit holes to go down around here. I've got about 24 rubber tubs of accessories to go through. Although I already found one with lots of grips, that doesn't mean there isn't another. This thread has taught me a bit more about grips and what...

    Did you know..... USS Triton (SSR(N)-586) was commissioned on 10 November 1959 in Groton, Connecticut, with Captain Edward L. Beach in command. On her maiden cruise, the submarine departed on 15 February 1960 .....arrived back at Groton on 10 May completing the first submerged circumnavigation...

    Model 28, what do I know, what do you know, how am I wrong?

    Thanks for the replies, answers, and advice. This is one of two S&Ws I received that there is no box for. I like the Herrett stocks, but I will definitely try out a set of Pachmayr and Hogue as there are a couple dozen in a box.......now. My uncle had swapped out all of the original stocks for...

    Model 28, what do I know, what do you know, how am I wrong?

    A few days ago I posted an intro with a story about my uncle and a collection of firearms I inherited. I would so much love to keep them all, but I just can't. From calibers I'll never shoot to guns that are really to nice for me, it's just too much. Yes, I said that :eek:. There was a time...

    Introduction, a story, and a Model 640-1/Pics fixed :)

    [Gunny Hartman] JHC [/Gunny Hartman] You make this hard not to dive deeper into the learning curve. I'm an avowed gun nut. I am convinced that real gun nuts spend 5% of their time shooting guns and 95% understanding & learning about guns, history, mechanics, ballistics, reloading, and so much...

    Introduction, a story, and a Model 640-1/Pics fixed :)

    Thank you & you're welcome. I've never been a revolver guy. Always had a 642 and shot it semi-regular, just not something that piqued my interest to go further. I do like all guns in their history, mechanical, and workmanship perspective. So I am on a learning curve here and quite enjoying it.

    Introduction, a story, and a Model 640-1/Pics fixed :)

    I recently inherited a collection of firearms and all the related things you would find from someone who was never married and had no children. You know the old cliche? "What happened to the guy who asked a woman to marry him and she said no. He road motorcycles, raced cars, hunted, fished...
