Re: JUST REVOLVERS!
Besides, can you picture the town sheriff and Black Bart squaring off in the middle of the street with automatics in their fancy tooled leather Mexican drop holsters waiting for someone to yell "draw" ? It just wouldn't look natural, got to be sixguns 
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.

Not very traditional, but an extremely nice carry gun. Note the laser dot on the RH side.

Nice! How do you like the little h&r? 22lr? I've had an ich for a little 22 revolver or semi auto rescently.
Let me make a short, open, blanket comment. There are no good guns. There are no bad guns. Any gun in the hands of a bad man is a bad thing. Any gun in the hands of a descent person is no threat to anyone--- except bad people. -- Charleton Heston
Guns are not good, they are not evil. Save those descriptions for the people holding the firearm. -- Unknown

1935/48/50 Tula (hex)
1939 Tula (laminate stock)
And many other firearms

The H&R is a S&W.32long. Bought it brand new at K Mart in 1972 In Ga. for $45.00. Never have shot it much, but is fun to shoot.ponycarman wrote:Nice! How do you like the little h&r? 22lr? I've had an ich for a little 22 revolver or semi auto rescently.

Re: JUST REVOLVERS!
Yes, I did; just like a Colt. Another reason to like it. I am used to indexing Colts more than S&W's.srv1 wrote:Did you know entory that the S&W Bodyguard revolver's cylinder rotates clockwise instead of counterclockwise like all other S&W revolvers?

Re: JUST REVOLVERS!
The great thing about black powder revolvers is that you can buy them online and they ship right to you. No FFL required.
