I carry the Hornady 110gr FTX +P CD in my Ruger SP101 (2.25") I carry the Hornady 110gr FTX standard .38 in my Airweight Model 12 with 4" Barrel. On paper it has one of the best ballistics of standard .38s (1010fps/249lbft at the muzzle). It feels similar to the GA 158g lead SWC rounds that...

Alright, so I have a Ruger SP101 2.25" for CCW, but I will keep the Model 12 handy around the house. I don't really want to load +P's in it, even though various resources say it'll be fine to run a through few it (S&W says no and since they manufactured it I'll stick to their word). So, who...

Well, I live in "the city" and don't really have anywhere I can discharge it. So I have to wait for Monday to get to the range. Otherwise I'd have fired it by now! Buff, you get a few rounds through that 223 yet?

I can wait until Monday to go run some rounds through it. Does anyone, by chance, know the vintage of the pistol? It is a JRF0xxx serial number.

She is definitely a good woman! We don't do Valentine's day (but then again our anniversary is Feb. 19th...so I'll be very good to her then). Actually, it's not a 10, it's a Model 12. When I was visiting my father this past Thanksgiving, he offered it to me saying that he didn't really have a...

Now with added pics! As promised... Thank you B52Buff, and thank you for your service as well! I presume you served on or with the Buff, and it looks like back in the "glory days" of SAC too! Wee Hooker, nah, she'll learn to fire it with the .45! Lol!

My wife....er..."my boys"...got me a nice "preloved" SW1911 stainless, full size for Christmas. You have to understand, this was a HUGE step for my wife, who is not too keen on handguns despite my being former law enforcement and former military (there is back story). Pics to come.

Thanks for the info, seems like my guessing on the age wasn't too far off. It is a nice, lightweight pistol and seems to be in great like new condition. However, I don't know that I'll use it much for CCW having a 4" barrel, but it'll make a great nightstand or desk drawer weapon. It'll...

Thanks for the welcome! So your response got me to thinking that maybe I had written the number down incorrectly before I put it away, so I got it out and checked. Well, I had written the number down correctly, stamped across the bottom of the butt is clearly 4D659XX. However, I noticed...

Alright, so I've recently acquired a Model 12-3 that was given to me by my father while visiting over Thanksgiving. He said he didn't really have a use for the pistol and knowing that I still enjoying shooting (I'm former military and former law enforcement) asked me if I wanted it, so I took...
