    Best way to carry a 4 inch K frame?

    My birthday was last Wednesday so I ordered myself a El Paso Saddlery #88 Street Combat holster for my 4 inch Model 13 in russet with fish scale stamping.... Don emailed and said I should have it in six weeks. I sure do hope to avoid any street combat until then....

    "JACK LLOYD" Model 58?

    ..."The "Jack LLoyd" limited editions were made with the round butt...." This would seem to indicate that there are more of these out there! I would love to know who this Jack La..La..LLoyd character is to deserve "limited editions" of such an awesome revolver dedicated to him! I should get...

    My new BBQ gun........ Hamilton Bowen .45

    Am I the only person that would JUMP on a pistol like this if S&W actually made them now? Are they so labor intensive that it just isn't profitable? If Mr. Bowen and Mr. Fishpaw can make a living doing this stuff why can't S&W? I know the answer to my questions but it just makes me sad.... And...

    Jovino 25-5

    If I have a dream pistol I think a short barreled, round butt Model 25 .45 Colt is it. I'm very jealous.

    Project 629

    Sounds awesome to me. I have wanted to do that with a long barreled Model 25 .45 Colt but I haven't found the courage to cut up an S&W. John Gallagher has mutilated a couple of Rugers for me but that's an entirely different animal.

    November issue of Handloader

    When did Venturino kill off every other gun writer on earth? I missed the news that day.... Can you pick up a gun mag that has an article that ISN'T written by him along with pictures by his wife? I liked him years ago but he and Taffin have just worn me out. No more gun rags for me.

    What gun and load did you use for your ccw test?

    I shot my 4" Model 13 with 158 SWC handloads. We shot 48 rounds, I believe. In NC you have to have an 8 hour course with some range time prior to being issued a CC permit. I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing. There were some real knuckleheads in there.

    627 PC 2.5" revolver - Blood Work gun - if you have one, pics?

    Now you're just being MEAN. You're trying to hurt us, aren't you? You want to injure us and cause us to twitch and flail with sheer unbridled WANT. Why (pardon my ignorance) are they called Blood Work guns?
