Snap caps for learning trigger control on your new piece?

 

[ladder13]

"the plug"? ..........you won't be needing one, 'cause you bought the right 642


ear muffs, eye protection, speed loaders?

 

[Maximumbob54]

A good range bag to put everything in? A six foot tall safe for the inevitable collection to ensue?

 

[Maximumbob54]

Heck, I don't even see a reloading press for all that soon to be empty brass...

And no casting equipment either...

This is really a very empty picture...

A copy of Jeff Cooper's book the "Principles of Personal Defense"?

10 days! 10 minutes in New Mexico if you get the right NICS operator!

You are gonna love the gun. I would suggest a pair of gloves if those are the same +P UMCs I practice with. They rubbed off a layer of skin on my trigger finger, the first time I shot my 442. A perfect rectangle showing where the trigger made contact!

CCW permit? (Sorry.)

 

[Bullseye Smith]

BenGay for your arm after shooting all that ammo .

 

[Avery11]

A 1,000,000 CP Surefire, a green laser, a holo sight, a 3x magnifier, 17 speed loaders, a trigger job, a hammer job, a barrel job, a derdillium dip for the finish, a bipod, a fore end grip, a rear end grip, a compensator and a supressor.

Oh, and some Hoppes.

Congrats Daddy, looks like the nursury is all ready.

A speedloader or Bianchi/Tuff speed strips?

I was a dummy when I bought my first revolver, a 686, and bought 357 snap caps instead of the more versatile 38s.

Heck, I don't even see a reloading press for all that soon to be empty brass...

I bought a Hornady Lock-N-Load press over Xmas for myself, but it's still in the box. Too daunting to tackle on my own. Need to find someone local that can give me pointers.

Yeah, more relaxed gun laws would be great, but we're fighting the good fight right here. I have taken quite a few non-shooters to the range, and have changed lots of minds about guns and gun owners. Everyone knows me as the gun enthusiast.

I shot a 642 last year, but it was with the owners powder puff reloads. Hopefully factory ammo won't be too brutal.

I bought a speedloader from 5 star firearms, but want to get some speed strips for this J frame as well as my 627 UDR.

I first picked up the 5 round Tuff Products speed strips for my 638. The second round I got some 7 round ones that I carry with 5 rounds in them. Gives you more to hold onto when loading.

A belt holster would not be a bad addition to your list.

Ray will be glad to fix you up at an affordable price.
I just ordered a Model 1 Pancake with Inner Hammer Shield and optional Detailed Boning for my 638. You might consider a speed strip carrier when ordering the holster.

Now make it a priority to get your reloader set up and running.

Hi Bob, the other week I received two Enhanced Pancakes for my 629 and 627, and a speed loader pouch from Lobo. Pleased with their product. This J frame is gonna be for pocket carry around the building, so I ordered a pocket holster from RKBA. I might stick it in my waistband on occasion, so I'll be looking for an IWB holster with talon clip as I frequently wear track pants or jeans without a belt around the house. Looks like Bell Charter Oak has a ton of different versions, might give them a try this time.

Checkout the "ultimate reloader" videos on YouTube. Excellent how tos on the l-n-L AP.
