Where the heck were you living? Gas was about $0.35gal and minimum wage was $2.10 here in Texas.:eek:

just got my SP on Monday and already put the hogues on - oh what a feeling!

Kjeff- yup - and they are coming back in three weeks to the reliant center for another show........time to start stashing away money..

Well I saw three gems at the gun show today. There were 2 3" sp101s and a 3" GP. I decided to buy the first SP and wouldn't you know it - it was broken. The extractor pin was too long and the cylinder very hard to open. The GP was awesome. It felt great. I realized that I liked it so...

I'm about to buy my first revolver and would like some constructive critisim/advice as to whether it is a good choice. First off I like the 686 and 620 - especially the triggers - but I don't like the internal lock idea and for $50-100 less I can get what appears to be a more rugged gun. I...
