OP, I used to compare the recoil of my Beretta 84F in .380 to that of a .22 in a smaller handgun. It really was, to me, a mild, soft-shooting gun. I would guess one of their 82 models in .32 ACP would only be even milder.
A tip-up barrel would solve any issues of difficulty racking the slide.
Nice find! Now I'm searching the big online auction sites for one...
That, and a nice Star BM would make a nice pair. Size-wise, how does the PD compare to a Commander or an Officers?
I learned to shoot on a Colt .38 Super converted (by King's, if I recall correctly) to .38 Special. My grandfather's; he used it for bullseye shooting. I have it now, with only 1 magazine unfortunately. I'd love to find a spare.
I have and use a Cardini Leathers vertical shoulder holster. It is a bit different from most vertical holsters because it has a pivot function which allows the handgun to be carried fully vertically but drawn from a more natural horizontal angle. It is well made and worth more than the $100 it...
I highly recommend the book Public Enemies by Bryan Burrough to anyone interested in this topic. Although it was the basis for the 2009 Johnny Depp film centering around Dillinger, the book itself covers all of the contemporaneous mobile outlaw groups, including B&C, in rich detail. The author...
My best friend and I had to have these in the early '80s. I still have mine, although it hasn't been shot in decades. It got plenty of use though; I even rigged up a shoulder holster for it so I could pretend to be a certain famous movie cop while I was out shoveling snow in the driveway :)
Are you able to use .38 Super mags with the .38 Special wadcutters? I ask because I inherited my grandfather's old bullseye gun of very similar configuration. The one magazine I have for it is well beyond it's "best by" date.
I remembering seeing these in the holsters of Milwaukee police officers in the late '80's. I thought, "Why are they carrying Rugers?"
Now I know.
Wish I had one.
No wonder the wait is so long! :evil:
I don't have one, but I love Randall. For some reason I am particularly intrigued by the Model 18, one of the original (and quality) hollow-handled knives.
It is my guess that you are talking about Once Upon A Time In The West, starring Charles Bronson and Henry Fonda. A great Sergio Leone movie.
Fonda was one mean dude in the movie, and really fast with his Colt SAA!
