like a Gentleman, not a primitive.

If any of you have one of the 8 shot smith & wesson revolvers, Model 327, speed loaders are now available from Clint Smith at Thunder Ranch.

I ordered one today.

See Nov/Dec 2009 issue of American Handgunner mag for review.

OK, guys. Let's have some real fun!

You might say I have been at this for the past 22 years. I have a small collection and am happy to say I have had the pleasure of shooting many different makes and models from small 22's up through the 50 caliber and the 408 Chey Tac.(amazing rifle's).

Please if you are not a GUN enthusiest, and have nothing nice or Gentlemanly to say DON'T.

I have seen the other threads that are closed due to tempers flying high. I am sorry if you have been negativly affected by a gun or been subject to crime with a gun.

I am a GUN advocate and enjoy them as much as I enjoy my straights.

I will post up some pictures as soon as I can.

I totally aggree, I have a small arsenal myself and couldn't be more for them. They are not bad, people are bad. But I know we have all heard this before. Unfortunatly the only ones we can change are the openmided ones that are willing to give guns a chance. OH well, at least my fiance is one of them.

on a side note,

All I have to say is.... I LOVE it!!!

Whoa you guys have some cool looking guns.

I'm 45 and until about 6 weeks ago never shot a gun in my life. Not sure why I had the urge to give it a try but very glad that I did. I have to ask my father why he never took me on deer hunting trips. It may be that as a kid I as kind of a spaz (just grew too fast and remained a bit uncoordinated for a good bit). He probably figured I'd hurt myself or that I'd make too much noise.

I joined the local firing range and have been renting and shooting all kinds of handguns trying to figure out which I like best for my first gun.

So far my favorite semi-auto is a Kimber 1911 (not a very fancy one, but the only Kimber 1911 they have for rent). Everything about that guns is just right imho. It feels so natural and right when you shoot it. A little heavier than the epoxies but that may be what makes it feel so natural and good to me when I shoot it.

Among revolvers, for me the S&W 620 (7 shot 357 magnum) has percolated to the top among the half dozen or so I've tried. Just like the 1911, it just feels very natural and right.

It's great fun to go shoot some targets and try to improve my aim. Great stress reliever and pretty easy to work into my day or evening.

Hope to have some pics of something cool to post... most likely the 620 would be up first. I think that's one of those guns you'd just never regret having even if you decided later you wanted some other revolvers too.

Heston loved guns and look where he ended up - DEAD!

Guns kill hundreds, and sometimes thousands of chimps a year. Many at the hands of Heston himself.

Putting a scope on this one from another tube soon. Thought I'd pop it on over here for you all

What is that, a break-barrel?
