Hello,

I want to do the polite thing and introduce myself.  I'm a long time Dan Wesson large frame revolver owner.  I have a stainless 8" .44 mag that I used to compete with in IHMSA back in the early 80's.  I have hunted and competed with that pistol, and love it.  Although I have not done any serious shooting for quite some time, I'm hoping to get back into it.  Currently attempting to mount a Trijicon ACOG sight on my pistol to replace the Aimpoint that gave up the ghost.

Things here in California are not gun friendly.   I have a home in Arizona that I'm hoping to make permanent in the near future.  I do most all of my shooting there since it is much more convenient and cheaper.  I retired two years ago after 28 years in law enforcement.  Glad I got out when I did.  Looking forward to connecting with Dan Wesson aficionados.

I would only add, buy a few more Dans then....  "Shoot more, shoot more often...."

Welcome to the forum and we'd love to see a picture of that 744.

To the paranoid people who check behind shower curtains for murderers:

if you find one...what's your plan?

dwf-welcome to the dwf from PA.  Glad you are able to enjoy retirement and many thanks for your service in law enforcement, not an easy job by any measure.  Hope to hear more from you.  Keep shooting.
