Hello all

Came across the forum while researching my recently acquired 15VH 357. I've been shooting and hunting since the late 70's and have always had a thing for revolvers. This is my first DW but I'm sure not the last. Looking forward to learning what I can about these beautiful pistols. I live in PA and also am an avid bow hunter. Happy and safe new year to all!

Welcome to DWF, feel free to look around and ask questions, forgive me, but I rarely get to do this:

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.

Glad to have you around.  Steve likes pics, saves him from reading....

This is only because I have to sound out words, and I get pretty tired trying to figure out words more than two sylla, sillib, sillybull, you know, those word things.

Nice looking 15-2

Welcome Bob, beautiful gun. Porkchops were the early guns. Made from 1970 to 74. Some would call them ugly ducklings. 15-2 are the Swans they turned into.
