Nice. Flintlock, saphaunce, wheel lock michelet lock,.......I think the flintlock was the longest running ignition system; I don't think the recipient will care that it's an antique. Slow, but still viable today.
Always wondered about the pinks and purples avail. with polymer. Read a story about a guy who saved his bacon with one when a scofflaw accused him of threatening with a gun. Since an officer was present, he asked the officer to have the guy describe his gun. "Oh yeah, man,.....black, all...
I think that just about says it all. ......I do like the old Detonics AMT 380 though (freudian slip.....almost said "389"...old Pontiacs just have a special place....to carry a gun....)
Well, you've got about as good a selection of .357 revolvers as I've seen. Any one would be hard to beat as a "walk away with it " revolver. (really like the Security Six, and Speed Six!).
I've been using .38spl., 6.0 HS-6, small pistol primers, 158 hard cast commercial swc (Kieth style, big grease goove) . By "commercial", I just mean, I didn't cast them. From local gun shop in boxes of 500. Decent mid-range in Armscor pretend Dt. spl. (I know, it's ugly as sin, but it knows...
Agreed! A few years ago Smith had a big rebate on the 9mm M&P. I think I had, maybe 140.00 in it, new in the box, after the "sale", and rebate. Likely won't see that any time soon! Definitely a keeper. We'll likely need a few "official" items, if "Fingers" lasts (like a Ruby, or two??).
A few outfits have primers, but at outlandish prices ("we've got it, and you want it"...)Saw some from an outfit in Boston Mass., plenty , but mega priced. Oh well, there's always Flints, 4fg, 3fg.? .......
Any thoughts on durability of Rossi 462-02 , .357? Picked one up used, like new, a few years ago, carry in rotation, but not frequently. Quite tight, and smooth at present. My guess was that .357's should be a rarity. I typically use .38, 158 LSWCHP +P.
