As a recent (last five years) convert to pistols after growing up with rifles, I have myself purchasing and shooting hammer-fired, steel classics (Colt 1911s, Browning Hi-Powers) as opposed to the polymer 9MMs. Inevitably, it has led me here as S&W L-Frame revolvers have caught my eye.

I am learning a lot just by lurking and reading. I'll be sure to post pics of the pre-lock, 4", 586 or 686 I'm destined to buy in the very near future.

I am a member of 1911Addicts under the same login for those who frequent both sites.
 
Welcome from the middle of nowhere in the middle of the state at the border. Nine driven miles to Mexico and 20+ miles to Sierra Vista or Sonoita.
 
And a...

And a Hound Dawg Howdy to you from SC!:)

Man after my own heart. I have polymer pistols, but I also have 3rd gen semi autos and revolvers, my pride and joy being my 686. I'd like to have at least one example of everything, If I could afford it. I've got steel and wood mil surps and bolt guns, lever, shotgun pump and semi auto, ARs and several carbines along with several revolvers. I even got a break barrel air rifle and tried it out for the first time today.

I know AZ. Lived there for 10 years in the 60's-70's. Mostly on the border but I've worked all over the state. Too hot for me these days but I sure do like it in the winters there. We spent our winters there about 10 years ago with an RV.

Welcome. This is a 5 star forum.
 
Welcome from the other side of the Valley of the Sun. This is a good place with good people. Fair warning though...the L frame is a good start, but when someone hands you a revolver with a caliber that starts with the number 4 you'll be in the market again. <big grin>
