Do you guys think ill be able to conceal carry a 5 inch gp100, im thinking on a vertical shoulder holster for colder conditions like winter where im always wearing a bulky jean jacket etc. or just i just get a 4.2 inch gp100? ( 5’10, 210 pounds, i usually wear baggy bulky clothes in the fall and winter times) I already have a cz po1, i think ill have the cz as my home defense and the revolver being my 20 yards plus executioner carry piece, then when i work on the double action more better ill end up getting a snubby for summer carry which is better 2.5 vs 1.87 inch barrel for snub nose please give me your advice and knowledge if you have any insight on this, NO STUPID REMARKS that dont provide nothing of knowledge arent welcomed yes i know its 6 shot yes i know its heavy, idc ima pack that mf with hot 357 magnum and be the modern dirty mexican harry
I've been looking for one for a while and they're still out of stock on buds gun shop and GunBroker
Hello all, as Wednesday approaches I am overwhelmed by a desire for a blued Python with a 6” barrel. Just wondering what everyone is comfortable buying at. Lowest quote I got after tax is around the $1400 mark. Thanks and happy almost WGW
Has anyone here gotten the faux ivory grips for a 686? I am asking due to the fact that the reviews I read all complained about the durability of the grips. I kinda want to get a pair but if they are going to fall apart, I don't want them.
I want a new revolver and have narrowed down my requirements, but I just can’t seem to pick between a 686 4” or a GP100 in either 3 or 4”. I want the 6-shot version, not 7. I have K-frames and Security Sixes and I love both for different reasons. Now I want to step up into a larger frame 357 for range/training use, but I can’t seem to decide which one. I’ve added and deleted from my cart so many times it’s maddening. I plan to eventually own both, but which one first?
I bought two sets of these sights (one for my Model 19 and one for my Model 69)... I had an issue with the tritium lamp being dead other set for the .357...the offered to sell me a replacement front sight... not happy with that response, but I agreed to pay $30 for a replacement...they said I just needed to call them to order it... the guy I got on the phone was a complete rude, asshat... tells me it will be $62, not the $30 I was quoted via email... he asked who sent me the email response, so I gave him the woman's name, then he proceeds to hang up on me... I call back and get the same rude person again(he refused to give me his name)... all he says to me is "give me your credit card info and you'll get the replacement in 2 weeks"... I give him the info and he just hangs up again... so when they asked for a review for the sights I gave them 3 stars for the exact reason "good sights, bad customer service"... my review was up for a week before they removed it...lol
Looks to be a model 10 or 19 I can imagine the stories behind it. Sheriff Lott is 70.
Hello folks looking for a first revolver; small enough for pocket carry, will mostly shoot 38sp out of, and id like it to be accurate and reliable, any recommendations? TIA
Got my first snubbie, Taurus 856, and thought I would pocket carry it like I did a diamondback DB9. Even bought a sticky holster before it came in and had it ready to go. Got the 856 the other day and so far either the handle sticks out of the pocket or is almost sticking out in all of my pants I’ve tried so far. At first I thought it was the sticky holster and it the fact the barrel is .5-.75 inches from the bottom of the holster, but in about half of my pants even the unholstered gun wouldn’t fit right. Anyone else had this problem or did I just misjudge the size of a snub nose revolver?
I dislike shiny guns because they can be seen a ways off. I was in the army and carrying shiny things wasn't a good idea where I was. I always wanted a Colt Python going way back. I waited til the factory problems were corrected then bought a stainless 4.25 model, which I love tho I hadda change out the flimsy rear sights for Wilson Combat. Wanted to trade in the shiny baby for the new blued 4.25 model but for some reason, that gun isn't on the California gun roster, tho it's the same gun; different color. It's like a gray Ford F150 is ok for sale in gray but so sorry, not in black here in CA. Any idea if and when the blued Python will be CA legal?
If you fired too many hot loads in your gun or for instance if you ran .357 mag in a .38 special gun or .44 mag in a .44 special gun which part of the gun would fail first?
Has anyone purchased the Enigma Express to carry their 432/632 “ultimate carry” who can confirm that the J-frame holster fits their revolver well? Thanks!
I plan on entering a bullseyes shooting competition next year, so I’m starting my revolver training right now. I would appreciate any tips on how to become a better at shooting revolvers. Thank you 🙏🏽
Just picked up this factory Camo finish LCR in .38. Snappy but I shoot it pretty well.
Before you say anything, I already know most people’s opinion on the caliber lol. But I don’t care. I like the idea of if I have to use it, I can still hear after firing it.
Any thoughts or suggestions on good .22 revolvers?
I am 18 years old; I do not own a revolver or firearm of any kind, but I am a writer who wants to write a story with a main character who does own a revolver.
The story is set in the future, which means most of the guns of today are considered to be out of date or "antique," but due to the main character's past, these are the only firearms she's allowed within range of.
I am asking for the advice of the more knowledgeable individuals on this subreddit: what should be the choice of revolver for the main character?
I know I want the revolver to have a skinny yet hefty silhouette; I want it to be easily concealable underneath a coat; reliable at close and medium ranges; durable, low-maintenance; and compatible with speedloaders. It's not required, but I would like it if the revolver came with wooden grips.
Thank you in advance to anyone who took the time to help out; it means a lot to this stranger.
