For wheel guns, I'm thinking about putting up for consignment,my Thompson
Contender, and quite possibly, my Auto Ordnance M1911A1 45.
See my post on "Single Shot" thread.
With the money, turning it into a 45 Colt clone.This one, would have to be a
4 5/8" to 5" barrel.Just maybe one with a 45 ACP cylinder.
I do have quite a bunch of 45 ACP,loaded and brass. At least the 45 ACP loads won't go to waste.
Think I'm done with the M1911A1. Although I still like it, just unreliable.
Sure would hate to find this out with a wild dog,or coyote attack.
Hunting revolvers are Ruger 44 mag RedHawk, and a F.A. Model 83 Field Grade 454 Casull.
Don't remember if I told about my score with SDSO (San Diego (County)
Sheriff's Office) in the early 70's. In short, a possible 300.
My score was a 297. Rangemaster was an ex-Green Beret. He told me about
the scoring.
What did I do it with ? An S+W Model 28, 4" 357 mag. On top of this, a couple of rangemasters said my sights were off ! I don't think so. Mine were
set up for me.So, how could I get a 297 out of a possible 300 ? Se la vie.
Seems like my favorites are the revolvers.
And, you know what ? With this new/used 45 Colt copy,just HAVE to get a
western leather rig kit from Tandy Leather in Sacramento.
Another excuse,huh ?
An excuse, to have more excuses ! AAHH, the fun of revolvers and reloading !
And, one more time "What do you need another gun for ?" Is what my G/F will ask.Probably shake her head....again. Got her "city blinders" on.
We are having more fun than the law allows !
Maybe next year, an Armi Sharps 45-70,ladder rear,32-34" barrel.New or used.
Or if the price is right (sure NOT the game show !) for a Pedersoli 45-70.
Might hop on over to the Italian Cowboy Shooters site.
See y'all later.
