    Nice! I was in a Grant Cunningham revolver class a few years ago with someone using a Speed Six. I had trouble concentrating while looking over at that Speed Six with revolver envy all the time.

    This is the SP-102 we all want (again)...

    Just ordered the XS standard dot for an SP101. The nail polish is easy to see, but looks terrible.

    I have a Speed Six that Jeff Bloovman did some light custom work on including some checkering under the trigger guard.

    It’s a brutally tough fast shooting revolver and my go to for actual work.

    Reading between the lines, I’m guessing you’re saying this one is a keeper. 😉

    I would add that I cylinder dump my revolvers at the range. That’s not the case with semiautomatics, but I just try to see how fast I can empty a revolver into a 8” target at 7-10 yards.

    The first job I had was at a sporting goods and firearms distributor, we shipped out a bunch of Ruger Six series guns.
    I have looked for years for a snubby Speed Six, color me jealous.

    ETA While I’ve searched for an affordable 2.5” M19 forever, this will fit that role nicely.

    Uh, those are all parked away in peoples safes and won't be sold unless some widow decides to take everything to a dealer to pay for one last trip to Hawaii, which might happen to mine. That's probably just as good anyway. Nice catch.

    In the P-F basket of deplorables.

    I was bidding on a VERY nice M19-3 this afternoon, but the reserve wasn’t met.

    This M19 is over in 25 minutes, and $200 less than my bid earlier today. https://www.gunbroker.com/item/1038707377

    Prices are most def up on short 19s, even over a couple of years ago.

    I just put a wolff hammer spring in this thing, this afternoon, as part of my to-do list:
