  1. Would like to say hello to the members, I live in Kiln and have an older Dan Wesson 357 Mag with a 4 inch barrel. It belonged to my Dad and when the estate was settled, it was with my share of his gun collection. The revolver was manufactured in Monson, MA. I would post a pic but I am on an I pad.

Welcome to forum. Can't wait to see the pictures of your fathers Dan Wesson. That's something to keep in the family.

Welcome from the Bluegrass.  Look forward to seeing some pics of that heirloom.

Welcome to the DWF !!!  I'll admit it up front, I had to Google Kiln... I lived in MS for a year (Biloxi), but didn't know where Kiln was.

We moved to Kiln in 2009 from Slidel, La. We live on the Jourdan River 25 min. Boat ride to the Gulf of Mexico.

Now I KNOW where Slidel is ;)   I used to go to a cool bar there in my younger days--it had country on one floor, rock on the next, and bars on both!

Bret Favre still has a house here, his mother lives in it, he lives on a ranch near Hattisberg. The bar in Slidell was Minnie Capellies, and it is still there. It was re-built after a fire a few years ago.

That's a great looking 15-2 you have there. And having it left to you from your Dad makes it even better!

Looks like it's in pretty darn good shape too. Still nice and black by the pics. I'd say the father took mighty fine care of her.  Lucky man you are. proud-to-be-an-american

It's in great shape, he had taken great care of all of the guns in his collection. I have had an issue with it. It would miss fire from time to time, not often, just once in a while. I believe it was the re-loaded and old ammunition I was using. Along with the gun collection my Dad had enough ammunition to support a Marine Rifle company for a month. I have several boxes of .38 special winchester ammo in the old yellow box with a price tag of $2 and paper shotgun shells. I stopped using the old ammo in the handguns and rifles.
