Nah dude, don't learn with a real one. Get a weighted fake from Amazon, if you drop it and your iron gets heavily damaged, you're out either 400$ or whatever repairs cost.

I’ve gotta disagree with this. Do what you wish with your property, but guns are not toys and shouldn’t be treated as such.

As I mentioned previously, do as you please. That said,let’s not pretend that spinning a gun on your finger is a smart idea.
A number of your posts on this thread don't sound like they are coming from a "grown man". Perhaps that's why you catching some flack.

Yeah, and he's got some serious wear lines on the cylinder to show why: practice, practice, practice.

I just broke the bolt on my gun from slip hammering, wish they made stronger bolts fir Uberti 1873 Cattlemen. Luckily the bolt is only $20 of Taylors and $23 on VTI. I’ll buy more bolts.

The main problem with spinning a single action, from what I can tell, is telling folks online you do so.
I hear tell billy the kid did so, makes you wonder if anyone admonished him for it.

let’s stop talking about spinning, it seems to hit a nerve and is not safe for THR community guidance. My bomb cross draw holster cam in! Looks great, can’t wait to get the broken parts in to test it out. I really think I can put a belt look on it and the cross draw holster can double as a IWB Cross Draw.

Stuff breaking is generally an indicator that YOU SHOULD NOT BE DOING THAT.

I did do the arm roll thing were you 1/2 click the hammer, open the gate, and roll the cylinder on your arm to check the gun.

I do carry a Ruger Blackhawk or 2 for SD. I also shoot a lot of Cowboy Action.
I carry in either cowboy rig right hand draw, with or without a cross draw.
This is done mostly, in the field. Carrying .45C, .44mag, .41mag, .357mag, .30Carbine, .22LR or .22mag. Whatever suits me at the time. I find the cross draw an outstanding choice when in the truck. 90% of my concern is 4 legged vermin, but the 2 legged still exist and having "big iron on my hip" is a comfort.
Of course, the shorty and AR are in the truck, too.
There have been occasions where the Blackgawks go to town, but that duty is usually 1911 designated.
Type of weapon doesn't matter near as much as PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE.
I don't fan. I have slip triggered. I prefer a slow deliberate hit to a fast miss, though.
No pics available from this hospital bed, though.

Last night when I got ready to change pants, I tried the sourdough holster in crossdraw a few minutes. It rides high, is comfortable, but weird. Butt forward canted wouldnt conceal well though. Least not for this feller.

I’m going to rig it to IWB, they don’t make a crossdraw IWB in molded letter

My problem with crossdraw is that my thumb does not fall readily on the hammer spur and my grip is not as natural feeling to me. Maybe years of Single Action use has formed my hand, but my hand just naturally curls around the gun butt, finger to trigger, and thumb on the hammer spur.

I’m going to try the cross draw & strong side combo. if that doesn’t work, I’ll put a gun on each hip. I write with my left hand but do everything with my right hand, so left hand shooting is not a problem. I also fish with my a left hand reel
