As one that had to sell his 744 and now wants a 44 or 445, this is how I ended up here.

Me: I have been reloading about a year, can't hit the broad side of a barn (wife kicks my but with a revolver), have had nothing but problems with firearms this year but still enjoy shooting. My favorite pistol is the TT33. I am building an AR 6.5 Grendel and 204 but ran into a speed bump as uppers are still hard to get.

The 744 I had was a "First Issue" that had a bad cylinder, DW paid shipping both ways and fixed the revolver. If I wasn't a DW fan before that, their service made me one.

This year I have been selling my “extra” gun and ammo. The extra cash give me the opportunity to replace my DW.

Once you look around here, you'll find you're going to need all that extra cash. DW's are still pretty approachable in price, but you will want a bunch of them. Good luck on your search, if you need any price check help or technical help, we're just a mouseclick away.

Welcome to DWF

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

Judgeing by your screen name I have to give you a special Welcome... I've got an 1994 FZJ 80...a hobby that gets less money due to my DW addiction.

<<<I've got an 1994 FZJ 80…>>>>

 

Mine is green and has 314,000 mi on it. And yes, its a 94. One of my emails is . By the way, the PHH is till the original one. Mine runs good but needs some lovin as she is getting old and need some Depends in certain places.

If you are a IH8MUD forum member then you know what the official welcome is. :flipoff2:

Pueblo use to have a hole in the wall gun store that sold DW's. Was always going to buy one there but it just never happened.

I  remember during the Clinton gun show days in Denver, DW's were a dime a dozen, they couldn't give those things away.

Mine is green also, with the usual faded hood and roof--I'm an IH8MUD member also.  I haven't got down to Pueblo yet, but I plan on hitting the Denver gun shows.

I use to post a lot on the Mud but interests have changed and I am probably an unknown there now.

No work today, off hunting for a DW.

Either way, hunting WITH a DW or hunting FOR a DW, that's a good day

These guys really are shameless with their Photo Addiction, I on the other hand accept you as you are, pictures or no picture (for now, but consider yourself on probation Wink)

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.
