I realize I am going to be an absolute kill-joy as I’ll take a revolver over a semi-auto any day of the week, but why do folks insist on taking pictures of LOADED revolvers with propping devices INSIDE the trigger guard?
All the best, Steve |

How do you know they are not dummy rounds, loaded to look like live ammo?

That and it would be pretty tough to have a ten or twelve pound full double action trigger pull with a flashlight prop rod

ssmith... the loadedness is their problem and live rounds always have more snap in a photo, the prop rods are just lame and dumber.

Not a classic but it works
My grandparents had 2 revolvers, little boy and big boy. I inherited "little boy" a few years back, a fine S&W model 15 Combat Masterpiece .38 Special 2". I'm not sure where "big boy" went or what it was except that it was a 357 mag.
The little pistol seems lonely without big boy around and because of sentimental value and the near 100% finish (I have the blue box too) I don't shoot it much so I needed to find a new "big boy". I had started looking for a new 357 when a new concept was introduced from Italy and when a 6" version was introduced I bought one. Being a 357 and with a top rail, the Chiappa Rhino 60DS looked like it might serve as a deer hunter too. Here it is with a scope and range results. my_rhino.jpg You can find more details about the scope and mount at http://swfa.com/ContestEntries.aspx. I hope to take it to the woods next fall to try it out. |
