    Kirk, congrats, those Minis are tough little rifles. Gonna pick up a used Ruger myself in a couple days. Not quite as big as yours, a LCP with laser.

    As my Boss said about me "He's only right often enough to screw up his average!" Glad you can shoot normal stuff through it.

    55merc, I would contact Dan Wesson and ask them about shooting Magnums or 38s in that.

    Well, here are some pics of thee Model 10, found out it was built in 1909! Discovered it has some nice grain in the buttstock, as you can see the bluing is pristine on the left side but looks like someone got careless on the right. Than I threw in a pic of "Grandpa and Grandson" the Model 10...

    Man, what a problem picking up my latest waif, a Remington Model 10 12 Gauge. Went to pick it up and we took it down to check it out. Came apart beautifully, but when we went to remount the barrel, it would not go together! The dealer called a local gunsmith who knows these old beasts and he got...

    Well, I picked up my two new guns today. The Colt was made in 1919 and it looks like the Savage was 1908. Both in .32 ACP, both showing honest wear, but cleaned up nicely with some oil and bronze wool. Amazingly, both have unchipped grip panels.

    EngProf, thanks for the tip. Dry firing in the store revealed no bad habits, so I hope it hold through. Anybody have a source for Savage Serial Numbers, this one is a pretty early one, S/N 130xx

    Well I made a trade today for a Savage 1907 in .32. Can't pick it up til Friday though thanks to Illinois' 3 day waiting period..........grumbles. Oh and a Remington Model 10 shotgun too.

    Thanks for the holster tip, I will file that away! Also, for a Commander, the Bianchi Pistol Pocket is super comfortable. I have used one for years, thick soft leather really helps from the barrel prodding your side.

    Actually tried to trade for a 4" 28 today. Friendly dickering, we just couldn't work it out. Those are fine shooting handguns.

    Yup, my alloy frame 642 is a rowdy lil beast and it weighs a couple more ounces than yours. Those N frames with full grips are much nicer to shoot.

    Man, I do love the 870s, tough as nails. Here's one I picked up the other day, a Romanian Carpati Model 74 in .32ACP/7.65. This thing was filthy and had the heaviest DA trigger I have ever seen on a handgun, including the H&K VP70! SA wasn't too bad. After a serious cleaning, the DA trigger pull...

    Okay, nothing to fear about Glocks, just be extra careful about the trigger getting something caught inadvertently. The little 42s and 43s, use a pocket holster like a Desantis Nemesis, put the gun in the holster, THEN put the whole thing in your pocket. The small Kahrs have excellent triggers...
