I'd scrounge some spare Mags, find a good self-defense load in that caliber that it likes, and you should be set for the Summer. For Holsters, give Dennis at Dragonleatherworks.com a buzz. I can Highly recommend his "FUGLY" IWB. If he doesn't have a Stock Holster for a particular piece, he's more than Happy to work with you. And his Prices won't set you back a Tank of Gas, either!Bubblehead Les.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00730873284089958084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-86697973076149667882012-03-26T11:23:58.912-04:002012-03-26T11:23:58.912-04:00"I would place a trip to Fogo on betting that..."<i>I would place a trip to Fogo on betting that the little Colt did not have more than 100 rounds through it if that until yesterday.</i>"<br /><br />No bet.Tamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07285540310465422476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-57570760462609536632012-03-26T11:08:03.310-04:002012-03-26T11:08:03.310-04:00"SB had a Colt revolver in .22 WRF, over a hu..."SB had a Colt revolver in .22 WRF, over a hundred years old!"<br /><br />110 years to be exact.<br /><br />I would place a trip to Fogo on betting that the little Colt did not have more than 100 rounds through it if that until yesterday.

I look forward to shooting with you and I will bring my Colt 32-20 too. <br /><br />I teach defensive shooting and it is a bit different than target shooting. I agree with you that all of the shots on the target are acceptable.Keadshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09982258812373127063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5837660608809488753.post-11534410285246474802012-03-25T16:07:53.555-04:002012-03-25T16:07:53.555-04:00A cheater for getting gunk out of handguns.

Take the grips off and using the straw, hose the heck out of everything you can poke the straw into or around. Drain and blow it out with some canned air, then oil it up with lubricant of choice. 5-10 drops into the action. a drop or 2 on any moving surfaces, and dry fire a bit. Make sure you wipe down the exterior with oil/rust preventative because the brake cleaner will really strip all the old oils off leaving bare metal.<br /><br />Don't breathe the brake cleaner, is nasty stuff. It is definitely an outside job.Joe in Renonoreply@blogger.com
