Revolvers

[gregintenn]

One of the is not like the other ones....

...one of these does not belong.

[Garufa]

Yep. That Colt thing down in the LL, or the curiously front-sighted piece at 2 o'clock?

Nice display.

I'm with Garufa the LL.

[Guest dedgar]

I'm thinking it is that little 'pea' shooter at the top.

[gregintenn]

Sorry dedgar, Garufa and Sidinman are correct. Somehow a Colt snuck into an S&W family reunion.

[Garufa]

What's up at 2:00? The front sight looks out of place for that specimen.

It's a "bubba'd" 455 British, rechambered to 45 LC and shortened to 4". I got it cheap, and it shoots great. You know your Smiths, Garufa!

Very nice!! Is the Colt a Detective Special?

[LngRngShtr]

Careful or you will end up with a "Smython" or a "Smolt"

Cobra....a lightweight Detective Special.

I have a new found respect for full size service revolvers. I was out at the range yesterday with my Father's Glock 10mm and my Beretta 9mm. One of the older guys was out there with his 4inch S&W 686. He shot some of the 10mm and I shot some magnums through his 686. That 686 has a great trigger. It had probably been 15 years since I shot a full size revolver like that, and I was shooting it just as well as the Beretta and Glock that I'm used to. He said the trigger is stock. It was like butter compared to my Smith J frame airweight.

I agree...

[Guest Archminister01]

My next gun purchase will be another full size revolver. I have owned a S&W 686 4" and a Ruger GP100 in the past and loved both. I am hoping to get my hands on another here soon. Probably after X-mas when the money vacuum has been removed from my pockets.

[gregintenn]

The old ones are far superior to what Smith and Wesson is turning out these days.

[gregintenn]

I agree...

Top to bottom:

1917 Smith and Wesson 45 ACP

Colt Python 357 Mag

Smith and Wesson model 10 38 Spl.

How'd I do?

I love the Colt Cobras.

[gregintenn]

+1. As you can see, I'm a S&W guy, but daaaaaaaaaang, that Colt has a smooth action!!!!!

[gregintenn]

Show em, guys. Don't be bashful.

[gregintenn]

Here's a couple of wanna be's. 101 Savage single shot 22s, made to look like SA revolvers.

[gregintenn]

A couple of Colt SAs.

[Guest jkb4c]

I can get in on this six-gun action...

My Ruger Police Service Six - .38spcl

Ruger Vaquero - .45 colt

[gregintenn]

Nice Rugers. You have good photography skills as well.

No orphans here. All from same family. More than one generation though.
