What class? These little noisemakers aren't much for accuracy anyway.
It's not uncommon for them to throw ten degrees off their sights... 6
meters? Shucks, sometimes you can't hit anything further out than arm's
reach! But it's still better than waving a knife.

At one point I had a couple of special caliber single shot pistols that
could pop a small target (say, beer can sized) from 200 yards. Not what
you need for home defense though ;)

Good? Sorry Oz but I'd quit if I couldn't put 5 of 6 on a torso sized
target at 50 yards with most any S&W and I'm not "good". My buddy (mate to
you) practically crys if he throws one in 5 out of the 10 ring at 50 yds and
my daddy used to carry a 4" S&W to shoot running rabbits outside of shotgun
range. Are y'all sure you're holding the gun right? Maybe bad ammo?

I own several in different bbl lengths. My favorite day-to-day carry piece
has a 2" bbl and covered hammer. All shoot tight groups, a couple inches at
25 yds, if you do your part but as you say not necessarily where the sights
are pointed. One must know the gun and how much "Kentucky Windage" to apply.
I shot a 47 - 2X at 25 yds with the above pocket pistol when my fancy new
custom 45ACP quit mid match! Luck? Sure, on my part (c:

Mine is way more accurate than that. And, I put in the max load,
which is hard on the pistol, but I only have to pull the trigger 6
times anyway... well, unless I have to reload. It's used purely
for "home defense."

Bwahahahahaha. Talk about poor shots, the NSW police were the pits back
when I use to shoot practical pistol regularly. They all got issued
with Glocks recently so that they could miss with 15 rounds instead of
merely 6.

BTW, Oz, when I was working in the NT back in the early 80's, I used to
carry a Ruger Security 6 with 4" barrel (croc defence, ya know). No
probs hitting floating cans & old fishing floats 30+ m behind the boat,
it used to be a regular activity.

Nothing improves pistol shooting like practice. The S&W 38's were
pretty good guns but you guys never got enough ammo or practice to
become good shots.

That would be pretty good shooting. I have one of those, IMHO it's the
best utility grade revolver.

True. But the issue is with the inherent accuracy of the revolver, where
the alignment & spacing of the chamber to barrel are terrible. For many
calibers, the snubbies are actually more accurate because the barrel has
less chance to throw the slug off course and make it tumble.

I'd be surprised if either Ruger or S&W utility revolvers could shoot 6"
groups out of a bench machine. Still, when you get the hang of it (lots
of practice, as you & Vito both said), it's possible to ring the chime
fairly often.

Ya know, when I was living in Arizona, I used to get hit on by beggars
all the time around the university. They were polite, which was a wise
thing in a place where carrying a gun is well accepted, but they were
still beggars. Often they were begging outside shops with 'Help Wanted'
signs in the windows.

I never met anyone of Hispanic appearance begging, but there were an
awful lot working in the shops doing the minimum wage jobs.

Understand this is even more pronounced in California. When you call
Aussies scum, I consider the source.

Lotta practice. The fishing floats were the 8" dia polystyrene ones so
hitting them wasn't all that hard. Beer cans are more of a challenge.

I've always liked Ruger guns, Mini-14 excepted as it wouldn't hold its
point of aim. OTOH their Old Army was a superb bit of gear. You could
buy them over the counter in Victoria at one stage without a licence
(skip mandatory Aust gun confiscation thread) so we did. Never heard of
one being used in any criminal activity - not real concealable - but
they got restricted anyway. Lot of fun on country properties, we used
to go rabbit hunting with them for a challenge. Long gone, alas, in a
burglary, one of the many that the police never solved.

What the hell, boats are more entertaining these days. I managed to
break 3 pieces of wood trying to replace my 12' daysailer gunnels on
the weekend, might have to build some form of steamer or find some
better wood. CCA treated pine isn't exactly traditional, but it won't
rot out in a hurry either. Plenty of hardwoods about but I'd need a
steamer for them too.
