You might be a J-hound when...

[Shorty 45 MK2]

You own a 642 and a 442.

You own a 3" 640.

You have a 3" J for your "woods" gun.

You put Ti cylinders in your Airweight J's.

You own multiple PC 637 Gunsmoke's.

You have Barami hip grips and a Tyler T on your EDC.

You'll buy a "Fitzed" J-frame just because you hate seeing it sit unwanted in the LGS.

You can carry on a extensive debate on what is the best SD loading out of a 1.87" barrel.

You load the 6rd speed strips with five.

You carry a J-frame in your coat pocket in winter.

You buy pants only if the pockets are big enough for you to carry in.

You own several of the "same" J. (640, 642, 340, 342)

You have no fear of summer.

If your tactical gun is a 340PD.

S&W's use of the name "Bodyguard" for their new Bodyguard drives you crazy.

Thanks for reading.

My name is Shorty and I'm a J-hound.

This thread needs photos!

You might be a J-hound when...

...for all the Ns and Ls and Ks you own, you only have one J -- and it's the only piece you carry or leave on the nightstand.

 

[Shorty 45 MK2]

As you wish!

 

[Hapworth]

You might be a J-hound when...

...if there's trouble, your J-frame is just to help get you to your other J-frame.

 

[Hapworth]

You might be a J-hound when...

...you coordinate different J-frames for carry based on metal composition and seasonal clothing: scandium for spring, titanium for summer, aluminum for fall, and stainless for winter.

uhm, yeah, I'm a J-hound of the 640-1 kind:


The 60, 63, and 642 didn't make it to the photo shoot.

J-Hound

You might be a J hound when you have carried a model 49 ( a real bodyguard) for 41 years although you have other J's and the model 49 was the one constant "bug" for 34 years on the job spanning a model 15, model 686, model 58, HB Model 10, 5904, Glock17, Sig 228 in 9mm and Sig 229 in 357 sig as my primary duty guns during that career. You also may be a J hound when as an instructor I used to "host" J frame PPC matches on our off hours starting at 3 yds and ending at 50yds.

Cool thread Shorty.

I'm guilty of a few of those so, I guess I am a J hound. Awesome!

uhm, yeah, I'm a J-hound of the 640-1 kind:

The 640-1 is one of my favorite revolvers.

Great thread Shorty!

Didn't we do this same thread back in the spring? Looks awfully familiar. Maybe I started it, I know I posted in it. I remember joking about snubbyfan and his cats. But, then again, I do that all the time.

No, I'm sure of it. I remember ragging Tucson MTB about him doing the dosey-do on his cylinders. Gotta check... Can't find it among my posts: obviously the OP here stole it. Keep it going anyway.

Yes^
And for this exact reason, it's the only one you can rationalize/justify putting Goodyear's on...Temporarily of course!

You might be a j-hound if:

"Lighting up a J" means you are taking your 351PD 22 magnum to the range.

You name your firstborn Jay and, over your strenuous objections, are prevented by his mother from giving him the middle name of....well, you know.

The phrase "J-Frames" is in your last will and testament.

It bothers you not in the least that the rubber boot stock on your j-frame protrudes ever so slightly from your jeans pocket, as it could just as easily be a cell phone to most laypeople.

"Stroking the J" is, instead of a basketball term, a description of the daily polishing you give your EDC when you remove it from its pocket holster each night.

You are confident in ordering any item of leather gear for your j-frame from snubbyfan, because he already has one that he can use to fit by.

And, the number one reason you might be a j-hound, is that when you take your next bus trip, you are proud to tell people that you'll be traveling by....well, you know.

My only J frame, but I want and will have more so I claim to be a J-Hound. Self titled. lol

At last! I finally came across the other person in this whole wide world who's proud of owning a Wyatt/Gunsmoke 637! Pleased to meet ya! When you get tired of it, you'll buy a second one (as if you needed a reason). When you buy a third, you'll take up juggling. Not only do you get a membership card, you get a T-shirt.

I have admitted that I am a J Hound! I don't see that ever changing!
