I sure wouldn't accuse any of the men in that first photo as being poseurs...you go first! :-)

When I shipped my Ruger Bisley back for warranty work UPS brought the shipping lable right to my door - slick....

Can I play?? My new 625-3 and 29-3 snubs....

I posted this mandolin case earlier for my Yugo underfolder. A tad heavy loaded out, but very discreet.

I have the Hi-Lux 2-7 IER scope on my Ruger Scout, mounted with Weaver Grand Slam medium QD rings. The scope was $110 thru Midway, the rings $25 thru Amazon. This is a good scope for the value and well worth the money. The principal cause of roughness in operating the bolt came from the...

Nice kydex tear, Tomrkba! Who made it?

If you are not experienced in full-house "Ruger only" loads I'd suggest trying a friend's before committing to them. Having said that, as I grow older and my wrists complain of the cumulative effects of heavy loads, I am quite satisfied with 8-10 gr of Unique under a 250-270 gr cast. All the...

"Not a good idea"? Sorry - failure to clean, particularly after BP, is a bad idea. To each one's own.

I love the handling, pointing and hitting qualities of my USFA 3.5" Sheriff's Model, but the ejection suffers due to the short stroke, and the EJH must be removed to remove the base pin for detailed cleaning, a major pain that makes for lazy cleaning. I simply cut the ejector button with a...

The comments on flash and blast indoors are to be taken seriously. Consider the complaints one gets on the firing line with a snubby .357; indoors at night one will be deafened and possibly temporarily blinded. Look for a load at least with low-flash powder.

I have a 325 PD that I carry AIWB in a Tucker holster. Conceals under a T-shirt. A bit "barky" with hot 45s. I carry Gold Dot 230s in mine.

Frankly, I don't give a hoot for rantings of "experts". Just go out and shoot, enjoy good company and keep the acrimony to oneself. My enjoyment level tops out with 8 gr of Unique under a 260 gr Keith in my USFA Sheriffs Model, any more is just masochism and I'm old enough to have had my fill...

Bump a cylinder full of .454s out of her and see how they shoot - but hey, 250gr of keyholing lead still does the job.

The Renegade ankle holster comes to mind....secure with no straps. However, that ankle can be a loooooong ways away when you are reaching for it.... http://www.gmstactical.com/copabyremo531.html

There is a set screw in the action that will freeze the cross-bolt safety in the OFF position. Pull the stock to find the screw. OR one can use rubber O rings as a temporary measure. ME? I set the screw to hold it in the off position, and installed a hammer extension to hook my thumb over.
