    Anyone EDC a 44 mag?

    There was a homicide detective in San Francisco that EDC'ed a 6.5" S&W Model 29 back in the 1970s. Or thats what I heard anyway, so it must be true :rofl:

    Recommend me a DA .22 LR that's actually in stock

    Some of the Ruger LCR and LCRx .22 LR are out and about. I spotted a couple on gunbroker and actually found the 3” LCRx .22LR at a gun show today for $540 out the door. It was shipped in 2022 according to Ruger serial tracking. So maybe there is a batch that just went out?

    A Shiny Nickel

    Amazing find sir, one of those that a person can own for the pure pleasure of owning it.

    What revolver do you use for home defense?

    5 to 8 yards on paper produced nice fist to cantaloupe size patterns for us. The Federal is the only .410 round I’d trust to be sufficient out of one of these Judges and only for close range, the other .410 SD rounds aren’t much IMO from the ballistics I’ve seen. Also anything beyond 8 yards...

    What revolver do you use for home defense?

    Wifeys preferred choice is full size Judge with Federal 000 buckshot loads. At home defense distances they will do the trick.

    .44 Magnum first shots - I'm hooked

    I’ve owned quite a few revolvers over the years but never a .44 mag. I may have to fix that.

    Glock Frustrations

    IMHO, Glocks are definitely the 'tools' of the gun world, nothing fancy and they get the job done nicely. I've always said when I want to have fun shooting at the range, I'll reach for blued steel and walnut, be it revolvers, 1911s, fancy HK's, high end Sigs, etc...you get my drift. But if I...

    First shot - How old were you and what was it

    6 or years old, .410 single shot that my dad cut the stock down on to fit me. He had to cock it for me too as I couldn’t cock it myself.

    My Experience With Taurus

    I decided to give Taurus revolvers another try in June of this year (2020) bought a new 856. Seemed like a well made firearm for the price. Got it home and found this in the barrel rifling (I freely admit it’s my fault as I should have spotted this at the gun store, but I neglected to check the...

    My Experience With Taurus

    I purchased a new Taurus Public Defender once, this was one of the polymer frame Judge type guns in the FDE color. I bought it from a big box retailer and they wouldn't let me dry fire it or anything in the store so I admittedly was rolling the dice. Anyway, got it out in the truck when...

    Taurus 992 Tracker Combo 9-Shot Revolver .22LR / .22WMR

    Howdy, I've personally owned the 992 in the 4" barrel version and I gotta say that I absolutely loved it. Stupidly I let it get away from me in a trade where I sold it for about $150 more than I paid for it. Anyway, it shot great, never a light strike, very accurate, etc. The only...

    Does this exist? (.22 Compact Question)

    Good morning all, The LCR and LCRx in .22 both do have a harder trigger pull than the standard LCR or LCRx in .38 (or whatever other centerfire caliber you go with). My personal advice in this situation Larry would be to keep the LCR in .22 and just have your wife practice...

    Anyone have an LCRx?

    Recommend me the best pocket carry

    I have pocket carried both a LCR and a G26 quite a bit and I can honestly say the LCR (or 642 S&W which I also carried) does carry noticeably easier than a G26. I have also pocket carried a LCP and it beats both of those hands down as far as comfort and convenience obviously. I should also...

    Should I sell a couple safe queens?

    To me this is a tough call that I've been faced with a number of times. I'm all for the crowd that says if you don't use it, sell it. That makes sense to me for sure. Yet...there is also a certain part of me that has what I call 'pride in ownership'. This is the little part that justifies...

    "Judge" owners I need your thoughts..

    Woodpeckers can tear a house siding up back where I'm from in Arkansas, so they can be a BIG pest up there. I could see taking a shot at one with my Judge, but I never have :) As far as self defense, the Judge is my wifes bedside gun and I keep it loaded with three rounds of 000 .410...
