....from 9mm to .45 ACP, with a new Smith & Wesson 625 Jerry Miculek
Double Action Revolver, which should be at my FFL's sometime early next week. Bigger holes. http://tinyurl.com/k6bpkyd Not sure I'll like the grips, but easy enough to swap out. I really wanted a .45 LC, but they're not easy to find in double action, and the ammo is more expensive. |

Personally, I think you should have kept both, but that's your choice. John H. -- Hope you're having a great day! |

Nice handgun. |

Nice handgun. Hope so. It's not a "cowboy" looking revolver, but it is close enough for me. I'll probably had the trigger worked on. |

I really wanted a .45 LC, but they're not easy to find in double action, and the ammo is more expensive. Interesting move. I like the ACP but it is really a semi auto round. If I was going for a wheel gun I would go for .41 mag or maybe one of those .45 LC/.410 "Judge" type guns. They are D/A. Even a .357 is pretty formidable with the ammo that is available now. That one has the advantage of training with a .38 wadcutter far cheaper than a full service round. I still have a large frame Colt that will shoot just about anything in the .38/357 class but that is not a concealed carry piece. It has very large custom grips that were made for my hand back when guys did that sort of thing. That is the gun I used to shoot almost every day when I had the range in the basement. ------------------------------------- I get a kick out of letting people try my S&W 627. I load it with alternating .38 Special and .357 Magnum rounds and make sure I set the cylinder so the first one that fires is a .38 Special. The second shot almost always gets a "Holy ****!" http://richarderiksson467.wix.com/richard-eriksson#!page-four/cx3c |

I wanted a double action wheel gun, sort of western style, in .45 caliber. The choices for ..45 Long Colt were limited, and those in double action, hardly there at all. .45 ACP is "45 enough" for me. I like single action wheel guns, except removing the brass is a minor pain in the ass. |

It was a break down revolver, that when you broke it down it would automatically eject all 6 cartridges. It took two "C- Clips" of pre-loaded shells to fill it because the cartridges are rimless.. . Heavy but a pleasure to shoot http://world.guns.ru/userfiles/image...1287751654.jpg. |

I have a Ruger Blackhawk that has interchangable cylinders in 45ACP and 45LC. Great pistol! Built like a tank, good trigger action. |
