Just thought I'd stop by here and say "Hey!"

I've recently gotten back into revolvers after using autos for the last 20 years or so.  I wanted to post a pic of one of my newest little guys, a 1956 Colt Detective Special.

Glad to be here!  Just found another kinda good deal on a police turn-in S&W Model 64.  Really good condition and shoots to point of aim.  Now I have to find a few DWs.Image Enlarger

Sure!  I also just got a brand new S&W Model 22 Model 1950, 4" 45 ACP in blue.  Haven't had time to take pics yet, but, I'll try to do that today.  Man, those N frames are big!

Thanks budman, very nice CBOB there!

I missed it the first time, but I just noticed you're in Dayton. I live just south of Cincinnati by the airport. We'll have to get together and shoot sometime, we have a great range here.

I guess that would presuppose that I have financial security.  Confused
