Bully

Deer - 1 Me - 0 Day one in the books. Nothing to report other than how damn pretty it is up here. Too bad it's NY.

Thanks Buddy! You ever want to sell that, drop me a note. I miss the little girl.

Best not to think of it.

Thanks. Most expensive deer, per pound, I can think of. And that's IF it happens.

I have a CM9. Smaller grip. I love it. I've put about 500 rounds thru it with no issues. Not exactly a high round count but I've slept soundly with it in the nightstand. C

Get a "Mil-Dot Master" and make sure your scope reticle and turrets use the same unit of measure ie: mil/mil or moa/moa. Reading about it is more complicated that actually doing it. Personally I went with a Vortex EBR-1 MRAD scope. Most likely more than I'll use but it's a nice reticle. If you're not ranging to targets, don't get caught up in FFP vs. SFP. Both work well. If you're shooting on a square range at known distance the SFP is actually easier to use and the reticle won't obscure your target at higher mag. http://www.vortexoptics.com/product/vortex-viper-hs-t-4-16x44-riflescope-with-vmr-1-mrad-reticle/reticle You can find it for just over your budget with little to no work OR you can scour the used market. FB "Rifle Scope Trader" is a good place to start if you're on there.

Leaving tuesday!!! C

You could potentially have the cylinder machined to accept clips or you could potentially shoot 45ar in it. Or, just buy 45Colt dies and have at it. That and 100 pieces of brass. Bullets, primers and, most likely, powder should carry over. I missed a scoped one 2 years ago for 550. Shoulda bought it but didn't want another caliber at the time. Good luck with your choice.

Pretty much.

Precisely why I like you. You're a mess.

Thanks all. Mipa, piss off. Like my wife always says, "If you have to ask, you're probably looking". Are you? I have to ask. I have some colleagues that would love to break, errrrr meet...ya.

Cool. Thanks!

I caught that too.

I'm a hairdresser. I am blessed to have many extremely intelligent folks that are open minded come and have very in-depth discussions revolving around a variety of topics. That doesn't mean that they aren't skeptical. It doesn't mean that they take my word at face value. And sometimes they just like pressing me to see how well I can debate a topic. So, I need a bit of help. Nothing more. Thanks to all that have provided that help without resorting to keyboard commando nonsense, in full or part.

...On how to hold a single action? I'm getting close to closing a deal on a SA revolver and am wondering how to hold the pistol to make it a pleasant experience. I want to take advantage of the "roll" that SA shooters talk about to help absorb recoil. I would also like to learn to shoot it both single hand and double hand. Caliber is 44Mag. 7.5" barrel. I will be shooting full house loads thru it.

Folks, let's play nice. I just needed some assistance with stats. I have found in my relatively short time as a firearms apologist that getting confrontational is useless. I just want to be able to combat rhetoric with facts.

I'm in an ongoing discussion with an "anti" client. She brought up Australia. I don't have an answer and my "google-fu" is not strong today. Essentially I would like to know and have hard numbers. If I'm in the wrong, so be it. Has: Vionlent crime/Murder/Suicde gone down in AU since the gun ban/confiscation? Hard, verifiable, real numbers are what I'm hoping to find. I can't seem to locate any in my/our favor. Thanks a ton. Bunch of much smarter than me folks out there. Hoping they chime in.

My buddy just got one off of Ebay for $50 to clean carbs and such. He's pretty happy with it. All metal. Heated. Kinda like a spa for your parts. Hell, buy it and put it next to the hot tub with a Ken and Barbie doll and a mini bottle of vodka and it'll be a mini version of Old School and Mrs. Old School!!!

I will so be buying one.

Fairly little fear of that at this moment.

I put in for permission slips yesterday. I found a stainless Blackhawk with a 7.5" barrel. Gonna give it a go. I'll report back of it comes to fruition.

Heh...

Thanks "OS". Much appreciated. I have a ton of 44 loaded up from my long gone pistol so I'm sure I'll shoot this one a good bit. Great round for me to load as I load on a single stage. C

I'm hoping to buy something and leave it be. The Gemini stuff is awesome but not in my line of sight at this time. C
