    Lipsey special edition J frame in 38 and 32mag

    That's probably the option I should go with anyway. I already have one in 22 rimfire that is nice.

    Lipsey special edition J frame in 38 and 32mag

    Of course now that I have money they are completely unavailable at anything close to MSRP. :(

    Are 44 Revolvers Dying?

    You need to remember WHY certain guns are popular. Why are ARs popular? Why are Glocks popular. Why are Heritage 22 rimfires popular. All have the same answer: They're the cheapest options. That's it. All the "It's modular" and "Good ergonomics" is just excuses most of the time. People often...

    Taurus 445 44spl

    Still a good deal for $400. The finger problem I can't help you with. Diffrent grips?

    The most important kaboom in revolver history

    I mean, you absolutely can use it. It just has to be the right burn rate and right ammount of powder. The reason people blow up muzzleloaders today is the same reason people blew up guns when smokeless powder first came out. They substituted smokeless for black, weight for weight. There's no...

    Taurus 445 44spl

    I have a Taurus Titanium. Great gun. $400 is incredibly cheap for one. Unless there is something visibly wrong with it, I'd have thrown my wallet at them so hard they'd be at risk of a concussion. As far as I'm concerned, this is a "Cake or Death" question. :p

    Rossi circuit judge rife?

    Are you referring to the 44 mag and 22 LR/22 Mag ones? If so, the fatal problem with them is that thry were made with barrel throats that are unacceptably oversize in order to eliminate lead spitting from the barrel/cylinder gap. Which is stupid, since they have the shields to catch that. How...

    Primary Arms SLx 3X vs their MicroPrism version?

    How are you supposed to keep dust, rain, and other gunk off the lenses of that small one? That's my biggest thought and concern. There's a reason virtually every LPVO includes flip lens caps. The lack of easy covering is a pretty big negative in my book. The small one doesn't list the objective...

    Thompson Center Arms SOLD

    G1 frame has a better trigger, but people couldn't stop shooting themselves with it. The amount of force needed to open it vs a G2 is a bit annoying.

    Thompson Center Arms SOLD

    Barrels are readily available from several manufacturers and often similar cost to what eBay barrels go for.

    7.62x39

    You don't want to see the things we did to some of those rifles, because they were just cheap guns back then.

    360 buckhammer ammo?

    In a decades time the Buckhammer brass will be just as available as 375 Winchester. Leaving you in the same place. There's nothing stopping these companies from making a lever gun in 357 Maximum. This all reminds me of the super short magnum craze during the 2000s. Many of those guns are now...

    360 buckhammer ammo?

    So it's the cartridge equivalent of a California compliant AR-15. Something with no real driving purpose beyond skirting a rule and something that will cease to exist the moment the rules are changed.

    .357 Magnum Rifle

    The only flaw with this is that 357 Magnum in a Maximum chamber has "Don't even bother" accuracy levels. In my experience at least.

    360 buckhammer ammo?

    I've wondered why this cartridge exists when we have the 375 Winchester and 357 Maximum already? :scrutiny:
