This is not my Thread, but, it is a topic I have interest in...enjoy to chome in about in my own way, and it is about plans or intentions I am wishing to do.
So...
For me anyway, the whole point would be to have a special and intentionally modified, Blue, 1/2 round Front Sight, old fashioned-by-now, Revolver, which has a look and design I already like, possibly from a time-period I like, which would use Full Moon Clips, firing/chambering a particular semi-rimmed Ammunition I like, and, which thus ejects all Six rounds at-once via the Full-Moon-Clips, properly and fully every time...and accept re-loads of six-at-once, elegantly, and with alacrity.
If I was going to do this conversion, I would re-load to my own intentions...use "Lead" Bullets only, of whatever shape and alloy for their speed or purpose...and, use Bullets of .358 diameter, for the me-load .38 ACP or .38 Super Cartridge the Revolver would use...and, not arbitrarily just buy and shoot any off-the-shelf, hard to find, inconvenient, super expensive, wrong bullet type, wrong bullet weight, wrong bullet kind, undersize bullet, wrong-for-the-Revolver jacketed/semi-jacketed whatever.
It's like someone saying they would like to build/re-build a high-compression mild Race Engine, such as a Red Ram Hemi out of a late '50s Daimler, for an old early 1940s Dodge Coupe they have and like, and then all the HeeHaws and naysayers going on about how "Well! How you gunna run it on pump gas Bub?"..."Why doncha just buy a Race Car?" "Get a Horse!"..."Why doncha just get an "Viper???" and so on.
As if any of those options were what it is about.
They are NOT what it is about...for me anyway.
For me, if I am willing to undergo the troubles and finesse and expense of conceiving and making/having an erstwhile .38 Special Revolver, converted rightly to shortened Cylinder Full-Moon-Clip .38 Autocolt, or, an erstwhile intentionally chosen model of .357 Magnum Revolver converted ditto to .38 Super, I would load my own Ammunition.
The point is not merely to satisfy the most banal and superficial as possible definition of a cheap shortcut or getting the most up-to-date thing off-the-shelf or special-order, but rather, sometimes at least, to have the particular thing one wants, with the particulars one wants, in the way one wants it, because that is what one wants to do and have...and, because there IS no other way to have it that particular way.
Yes?
Yes...
Lol...
Best wishes...
