    When they first started showing up, I found one at Scheels I sort of liked, though it was the first run of the 2" models before we heard about the 3". It was maybe a bit smoother than the Taurus 85...

    I have an old H&R 6" .22 from my father in law. He enjoyed it and was very accurate with it. I've shot it a time or two but it mostly sits in a corner of the safe somewhere. Why get rid of it? ...

    That is such a useful modification; and done with such skill as to seem even artful today. It's really sad that this has been lost for the most part in this age we find ourselves in now.

    Talk about a head slapper. Can't believe I never thought about a pellet gun, although back then they were not quite as popular as now. Dad had a pistol but it was co2 operated. I can't remember...

    Shepherd was his name who had the Ruger sa in VN. Funny how a name from so long ago can come back to you.

    No, definitely not a Seal. I can remember the face and the man but not his job. He was a Spec 4 and probably with the Security attachment they added. It was a 6 1/2" iirr. There were some guys who...

    I hate to ask this so late in the game, but what is "not a gun" actually referring to? Does he mean a gun for fun and not for daily defensive carry?

    If that is the case, I whole heartedly would...

    I never cared for those grips either. I think I have a bag of them down in the basement that was given to me from the Illinois State Police years ago. Back then I still owned a model 19.
