Gratuitous Gun Porn

I was posting on the forum over at The High Road and was looking through some pictures of my revolvers, trying to illustrate a point.

Two shots of a revolver I really like.



Then, a more traditional photograph.



I picked this revolver up from a hunting buddy several years ago when he just HAD to have a stainless steel revolver. I actually paid him more than he was asking, because I have to hunt with him and I told him that he was undercutting the price rather severely to move it.

I feed it a load that features a custom 180 grain RF bullet, with L'il Gun powder. That big bullet rolls out of the revolver at about 1200 fps, which is plenty good medicine for just about anything I might encounter in the local woods. That same load can be used in my Marlin 1894 at 1595 fps. When you touch it off, especially from the revolver, you know you've got a magnum in your hands.

I've always been more of a pistol person than revolver... but S&W sure made some beautiful handguns.

I have a police turn-in M28 four-inch. Shoots real well with just about anything I've shot through it.
