    Ruger New Vaquero VS Ruger New Model Blackhawk

    Nope "So, I guess that I can assume that the old/original Vaqueros are no longer being produced." And I much prefer the old to the new. I stopped buying (new) Vaqueros when the (new) Old models ran out. I think the new models are probably good guns...but I think I read somewhere that you're...

    .22 LR problem

    This is a model 94 2" bbl...I also have a new Model 941 .22mag. I can't seem to find out what the cases on the shotshells are made of, but none of the .22 mag shotshell cases split in my 941 and none of the brass cases split in the model 94...and they ejected easily. Snal~

    .22 LR problem

    I recently picked up a used Taurus .22LR revolver. I shot it for the first time over the weekend, using CCI shotshells, after shooting a full cylinder (9 rounds) the ejector refused to budge. Turns out that 6 of the 9 shells had split and wedged in the cylinder. I got them out...fired 9 more...

    <<Don't think so much of what we think here; think more along the lines of what the jury would think during your trial if you had killed your friends. Chances are you would be on trial in todays crazy world.>> (I've yet to figure out how to paste a quote correctly) I'll jump ahead with the...

    3 minutes of terror and now I feel really dumb

    Arc-Lite I'll comment on what the police said...(once they got there)...when everyone has had a chance to reply. This incident was 20 some odd years ago....and the LEOs did ask if we wanted to file charges against the perp/friends. My brother still can't believe that I didn't shoot, (because...

    3 minutes of terror and now I feel really dumb

    I don't know how you guys may have reacted to my situation...but I thank God every day that I...#1...didn't fire "level" thru the door...#2 didn't fire when the door was kicked open. Why I did neither wasn't by formal training, by target recognition?...I would hope...but what if I'd met a...

    3 minutes of terror and now I feel really dumb

    Similar experience.... My older brother and I were sharing an apartment that was within a building used as our dad's sheet metal shop. There was a "nothing" room between the apartment and the side entrance, which was our main access to the apartment. We were leaving the apartment earlier in...

    pre-ban, post-ban, or no-ban?

    I'm in NC...pretty relaxed gun laws by comparison...but I thought this was a national thing. Trying to improve my education...and not build something illegal. Thanks!

    North Carolina purchase permits

    "I've heard that Buncombe County, where Asheville is, up in the mountains is gun-friendly, which is surprising considering the rampant hippy population." LOL!...I just applied for 5 last week...I was told that it would take 5 days...they were ready in 2. Hippies?...most refer to them as...
