That's what I meant. Didn't you just buy a 'hog leg' six shootin' side arm? Why? Surely it wasn't because Custer carried one is it? Btw and all kidding aside, maybe people are attracted to the military 'style' arms is due to they're light weight and 40m accuracy



Yeah, I did: .357 MAG DA six-shooter, stainless steel, 6" barrel, just
like Marshall Dillon and General Custer *didn't* wear.

I like the weight of a *heavy* steel sidearm. And, of course, if you are
fighting off zombies, once you run out of ammo, you can grab the
revolver by the barrel and smack 'em over the head.

This is the "sister" of the one I got:

The grips are ugly, there's no other way to describe them, but they do
fit my hand well, and they seem to absorb the kick from .357 rounds. The
..38 Special rounds feel like .22LRs.

There are a few things I want to have a gunsmith work on, to make the
new revolver more "mine" and less like every other one. One, I think,
will be to have her bead-blasted, to tone down the stainless steel
shine. The other mods are more practical.
