My Garmin had been backordered since mid-December, but finally came in last week. I took it to the range for the first time today. It is indeed awesome.
After years of being careful not to...
Interesting to see this thread take a Field Watch turn. Like Cory, I also had a couple of Timex Expeditions back in the 90's. I think that the Hamilton Khaki Field Expedition looks awesome, but I'm...
So, how do you think they compare to each other? Which is your 'favorite' so far?
I realize that you have a small sample size, but I'd still be interested in hearing your opinion.
I enjoyed this video about the WWII Destroyer Escort, USS Buckley. She sank U-66 in the North Atlantic using everything from deck guns to small arms. The Buckley's crew had to repel boarders,...
I bought a Bambino a couple of months ago. I like it a lot. Nice looking automatic watch for casual Fridays, and it cost under $200. Good tip to not take it shooting!
Island watch sells...
I like the strap on the MoonSwatch, Janitor. It really adds to the look.
I handled a couple of real Speedmasters today. The first was a vintage (circa 1998) 'Hesalite Sandwich' model with a...

This is the newish 43mm version. A homage to the prototype Bulova chronometer that Dave Scott wore on the Apollo 15 mission. He wore his personally owned Bulova after his NASA issued Omega speedy...
Several years ago, I read his book about his experience in WWII. I enjoyed it.

I picked up some today after looking around for months.
Here is a picture of the hammer and firing pin on my Uberti. I don't know enough about SAA clones to tell what type it is just by looking at it. It does wiggle a little. But it does not push back...
Standard Manufacturing makes an SAA replica. I've never handled one myself, but some folks on the interwebs say that they are as nice as the USFA guns and perhaps nicer than Colt.

1860 Army and 1873 SAA clones.

I just bought (last week) a Cimarron Uberti "Artillery" model that is a 4-click gun. This one:

Some random thoughts...
I'm 0-1 on CPR results, but in my defense the guy I was trying to save was elderly and had had open heart surgery. I'm still glad that I gave compressions and breaths...
I recently handled a 66-2 with what I assume was a 2.5" barrel. (I didn't measure it)
It was in .38 Special only; not .357. Would that be worth less than a typical .357 Model 66?
I have that same strap in blue on an old Orient Mako with a blue dial. It looks great and wears well on that watch.
I've been looking at revolvers in caliber 45 Colt lately. I think I'm going to try to find a single-action model first, but this double-action S&W 4" Stainless Steel Mountain Gun sure looks nice. ...
124 grain Lawman is available for purchase on the Speer website as of this posting. No bulk purchase options though, so you may not like the price.

Thanks everyone, and thanks especially to BillSWPA.
I really appreciate the members of this forum.
I've been a member for over a decade, thought that I was proficient in using Google, but I still can't seem to find a straight answer and would like to ask the experienced members here. And I...

So, the Worksheet 4999 is out the window? It was admittedly somewhat confusing, but it did have objective criteria (ounces, inches, etc.) which you could use to determine if a firearm was a pistol...
