Revolver Saturation

[Greyman50]

Shoot a tin foil wad on the 4th of July and maybe several on new years.

I have a 17-3, 18-3, and 17-4. The 52 is a wadcutter gun, and that stuff is more than 45acp. I do not reload anymore

Good luck

I have not bought a revolver in maybe close to a couple years. I seem to rationalize myself out of everything I look at. I don't like J frames or nickel guns. I have a varied selection of K and N frames including my birth year K38. So what's left? I have no desire to collect every variation of a specific model or caliber, and I am not into antiques.

As for semi autos, I don't like black plastic, and I don't really like semi models beyond the 1911 original style. Not into modded out stuff or 2011 double stack styles. I have a couple Colts, a couple Sigs and a couple Dan Wessons. The Dan Wesson's are by far the best. They are like a jeweled action, with a wonderful trigger.

I have also taken to a 5.5" and 7" Model 41 Smith and Wesson, and well as a Ruger MK4 Target with and upgraded Volquartsen trigger, so there is lots of rimfire shooting going on.

So the question is, where do I go from here? I do not see myself headed to Wilson Combat or Nighthawk and the likes, but I am super fussy about triggers especially because I flinch from hundreds of thousands of 12ga trap loads.

Suggestions?

Buy something fun, not necessarily rare or valuable, like a couple of Hi Standard 22 revolvers, and go shoot them. Does wonders for revitalizing life. You get new experiences, like when someone walks up and says, Hey, I never knew they made 9 shot speed loaders.

Currently own 21 revolvers of various breeds. Most recent purchase was a old compact break action H&R 22. Spotted it in a private sale the last day of a gun show. It was marked down from $150.00 to $95.00. After some haggling it was out the door with me for $75.00 with 100 rounds of 22 shorts thrown in. It fits nicely in my pocket. I carry it when I walk Mr Jake on our 6 am and 10 pm walks. Gives me peace of mind when ever we encounter an urban coyote.

I like revolvers and can’t think of the next one either (my smith collection: M1917, a Victory, K22, K38, M586-0). All nice shooters, and happy with this set. My next one that I don't have…Kind of thinking a paradigm shift is needed - change the rut I’m driving in. Perhaps a mid-range .22 LR rifle, thinking Bergera or similar with a nice scope. ‘Broaden my horizons’ so to speak. Pistols and revolvers still good but a nice precision rifle will give the rest of my brain something to focus on.

I just did that too. CZ 457 Varmint with 6.5-24 Vortex Viper scope
