    Saw this over at the Glock forum. Good Guy with 38special was killed during his reload during a shoot out | Glock Talk I used to be big on snubs and revolvers. Dems made sure revolvers are pretty useless now. I still got the odd snub or revolver. Kept about a down of them. But on as backup to...

    The implication I had heard was the striker fired auto pistol can't shoot without pulling the trigger because it gets some of the firing pin energy from the trigger pull like a revolver gets.

    This curiosity came from the recent .44 load thread, I didn't want to derail it. What are your thoughts on a .44 magnum for home / personal property self defense, and open carry? Model 629, Colt Anaconda or similar.

    So I was wondering about what SHTF revolvers you guys are using. Who's using revolvers with a loading gate vs revolvers with a cylinder that cranes out? Single action? Single\Double? Double action only? Any that stand out from the get what you pay for game? Mostly curious cause I'm looking...

    Ruger LCR .38 Special ($399 OTD)... Just ordered a ankler holster for it. It will be a backup most of the time, but it might be my only cc at times. Any recommendation on a IWB holster?

    my friend "Cowboy" (he is a retired professional Rodeo Rider, a friend of Willy Nelson,, and the guitar player in my band) is encouraging me to sell some of my guns and get some cowboy guns and join him in Cowboy Action Shooting for ****s and giggles.

    I have a S&W 686 that I bought a month ago brand new. I looked at the trigger today and it is starting to blacken or oxidize. Its only on the trigger and firing hammer. Is that normal? I've not fired the gun yet ? See pic and thanks in advance.

    I need help. I have a deposit on a S&W 686 used 6inch revolver (pre safety lock) , but have the option to get a brand new ruger gp100 . I like the trigger on the SW but don't hate the one on Ruger either. The Smith is $600 vs Ruger $675. My main concern is the Smith being used even though it...

    I've yet to find a good, solid, reliable .357 revolver within my price range of no more than $350. In our local secondhand news in which people commonly overprice guns and ammo to oblivion, there's an Old model Charter Arms 3 inch Bulldog in .44 special for $300 bucks. I have done some research...
