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. |

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. Probably more .308 now than .30-06. Nicer round for semi auto rifles, shorter action required. Actually for a bolt action would also be better because of case length. |

I don't see .308 there very often, and I've seen 30-30 only once in the past many months. I bought a box. Now I can see if the Model 94 will shoot. It was a gift from my next door neighbor, but I've never fired it. I'm thinking of giving it to my grandson when he makes Eagle Scout. |

I've not gotten into that. Have to get over the electric RC planes first. Haven't gotten one of them either, but I'm spending a lot of time looking. I like this one: http://tinyurl.com/law82pa But it's pretty big. I'd like to be able to fly it at the local elementary school. The playground there's not very big. |

The wingspan is fairly large (59"), but it will fly pretty slow and land probably at a fast walk to a trot. If you pull the trigger (ha!) on this, get an extra battery so you can charge one while flying the other, or you be waiting a while between flights. |
