Splits and times with N frames

[JCN]

I would like to see @JCN or @03RN run a 329PD. That would be fun.

Not it! Lol. I need my wrists for other things.

@03RN is way more manly than I am.

Well I think there's a lot more than manliness involved.

I'll deadlift 500 for reps without batting an eye but I think there a lot of technique that I don't have with shooting. Same with arm wrestling. I suck at arm wrestling to the point I won't do it.

Anyone looking for extra 329 fun should try out my compact 329 that in a weak moment, I managed to shoehorn K/L bantam grips on, so I could fit it in a small fanny pack in the winter in Alaska. Now it's full of shotshells. With Garrett ammo, you only shoot it if something is fixin to eat on you, and you measure splits by trips to the physical therapist.

Naw, I’m gamer scum so I do gamer scum things…

If I’m going to N-frame it’s going to be 8-shot with 9mm conversion…





When I had my 929 sent to TK to have it done up like Michael Poggie’s championship winning revolver…

I had him set up this 327 NG exactly the same except a little heavier on the strain screw.

I briefly owned a shorty 325 and it sucked to shoot. Recoil with ball was to the point that the bullet was pulled almost out of the casing of the sixth round in the cylinder by the time it was its turn under the hammer. That 329 just looks painful.

I took my 629MG to the range this weekend to try a few midrange loads using BE-86 and after firing my GP-100s the N frame just felt awkward. Very accurate but awkward.

While I don't think of a N frame as a gun that I focus on splits with, Jerry M seems to be able to do OK with it in that regard. Thought I read his secret was to drink a quart of chocolate milk before he wanted to split it fast.

I have a pair of 624 .44 Special N frames, that at one time were my favorite handguns to shoot 50 yard steel with. The DA triggers were amazing and the 624 was like a laser.

Once I’m back on my feet I’ll have to get a timer and run the SRH Alaskan vs GP100 and see the difference.

Feeling pretty good

Reminds me of something an old, grizzled instructor quipped in a class...

At some part of a discussion, someone piped up with “Yeah, but what are your split times?”

His response....”Fast enough son.”

Classic.
