Actually, I prefer clams on a red pie pizza.

Did you ever buy your .45 revolver? I'm thinking a .45 ACP revolver might round out the wee
collection nicely.

The S&W Judge is on my list.

You seein' a bunch of rattlers up there? I think you meant the Taurus Judge, or the S&W Governor.
I kinda like that S&W 625 JM, (http://tinyurl.com/88czrkp ) but wish it were more the 'western'
style. Oh well, I can live without a .45 revolver for a while. It'll take a couple years to earn
enough VISA reward points to get it anyway.

Ruger makes some large caliber revolvers that are "western" looking.
Fine firearms.

The ones I've seen in the .45 ACP caliber are single action only, unless I missed something.

I like my Blackhawk, with the interchangable cylinders in 43 ACP and 45 Long Colt. Best of both worlds. Have to admit it usually gets fired in 45 LC. The custom-built 1911 with adjustable trigger and match barrel gets most of the ACP ammo.

That, of course, would be *45* ACP. 43 would rattle around a bit. :-)

Thanks. I didn't want to 'question' it, but that's what I thought. Doesn't the LC cost a bit more
than the ACP? And, is it as available? I've never seen any at WalMart, for example, but I've found
the ACP there several times.

The advantage of any particular caliaber is gone when there is no ammo available. Stick with
the basics, 9mm Luger/9x19, .40 S&W, .45 ACP, .223/5.56 and .30-06.

It's not as common, but is available. Reloading does the trick.

Sportsmans Guide seems to be getting ammo in (online). They even had
9mm for 27 cents a round in the last catalog.
I am still waiting for 20 cents before I dive back in the ammo pond.
The hoarders should be running out of room in the bunker and the
manufacturers will overshoot the market.

I bought three boxes of TulAmmo at WalMart for $10.36/50. Steel case, FMJ, made in Russia. We'll see
if I get any misfires.

"Western" revolvers were single action. That is part of the charm.
Personally I embraced the 20th century, starting around 1911 ;-)

I do have a Colt Frontier Scout .22 that is "western" but I usually
shoot rat shot out of it.


I like single action revolvers except when it comes to dumping out the
casings or inserting fresh rounds.

The S&W I have works SA or DA, but loads like other DA revolvers, with a
cylinder that hinges out.
