Awesome S&W headstamped shotshell. I have some 357 Magnum brass that's S&W stamped.

Couple shots of my Colt SAA with the old cavalry length bbl. Amazing, what a difference the background makes in the look of the gun. Best load: Lyman's 454190 sized to 0.454" cast from wheel weight alloy with a pinch of tin, backed by 8.0 gr of Unique. Even with 3/4 century eyes, it'll do two inches at 25 yds for me. Best regards, Rod

A 1991 6" Colt Anaconda on top,
A 2020 8" Colt Anaconda on the bottom.
29 years apart, the perfect Cribbage hand.
Just to show lightning can strike more than once in a short time frame! After going decades not finding a Rolling Block pistol, I got the old 1867 Navy I showed here earlier, and then shortly after the 1891 A HUBALEK Target Rolling Block pistol. Then a few weeks ago yet another 1891 Target pistol was found at a big gun show in Colorado! This one was built by HM POPE and fitted with a Pope target barrel that's threaded for a silencer for indoor matches. Pope built a very small number of these for use by shooters in the first US Olympics held in St. Louis in 1904. This one is chambered in .22 Short, and has a lightened hammer, trigger tuned, and a over travel stop screw added. Also custom sights front and rear.
Pope above, and Hubalek below. Hubalek was Pope's only apprentice and Pope taught him how to make barrels before Hubalek went out on his own!

I previously bought the single wood case from Hampels for my Hubalek (lower pistol) but then got the HM Pope 2 months later, so ordered a glass top case from him to fit both pistols. The case also has a soft rubber seal built into the lid that can be seen in the second image. It keeps the case sealed when the lid is latched. Shipping was $18, the case $48.
Gorddon Hampel really does nice work at extremely reasonable prices!

That is the most instant disappearance of soda pop I have ever seen. Not to mention the melons.

I am right there with you on the Merrill’s. I bought this RPM XL Hunter a few years ago. It is the most accurate .22 I own. I have a set of Talley bases and rings, I am going to put a scope on it at some point. I believe the Rex Merrill’s and RPMs are some of the most overlooked and under appreciated pistols out there. I love mine.
really liking the shape and feel of these altamont grips i scored at a discount for my 60-15. They fit the proportions of the 3” nicely.
And since I was playing with the j frames I put an extra stainless cylinder I had on hand into my wife’s m360j making it a two tone; we both agree it looks sharp in this configuration.

I built two like that back around '72. One percussion, one flint so I could shoot all the categories at Friendship. Hot the prototype ROA out there. Never won anything but the 50 yard musket trophy one year and a few shotgun matches.
