    Fascinating revolvers. I'd love to see the others that go with it, especially the SIS-marked guns.

    But mostly, welcome back.

The other option is with some digital media that has reached out to me that may involve small single articles on certain guns or series of them.
    That's great to hear. I will say about drama, based on my own usage it appears that the ignore list feature is unlimited.

    Glad you're back DB. Your posts on fighting with guns are always gold. I hope you stick around. I've learned a lot from you.

    Congrats on getting two more of your grails. I'm another person who would happily pay for your fighting revolver book.

    I am pretty sure I am not alone in wanting to learn more about double action revolver history and their use by real gunfighters. I think you can expect a lot of demand for that book or articles. Heck, I'd buy a book solely for the photos and details you've already posted about LAPD revolvers.

    I never knew SIS & SWAT/Metro at one time carried 6 inch 38's. I wonder what the attraction was to the long barrel. Was it improved accuracy due to the longer sight radius? Increased velocity? Dual purpose impact device?

    Welcome back, always good to hear from you. I am still grateful for the massive amount of information on HK in general and USP 45 in particular that you gifted me with at Tac Con 2016. Thanks again.
