We'll see if one of the kids gets it for me. Birthday coming up.


This is the only 9mm I have.

It is truly a Saturday Night Special and the one I have has been fired
about 45 times. I still have a few rounds from the original box of
ammo the guy got with it. He fired one magazine and I fired 2. No
malfunctions. Then I put it away. I am not even sure why I bought it
except it was $100 (with part of a box of Winchester "white box" JHP
ammo). I would pay $100 to watch a monkey ****. ;-)




Heck, I have a 22 Saturday night special 7 shot revolver. Maybe 40 years
since I shot it. Used it on rats while fishing at night. Was $10 new.
Have to unscrew the cylinder screw to remove and load the cylinder.


Is it like this one? (100+ year old H&R Victor)

This is .22 long (or short, not LR). It has a side slot for loading
but no gate so you really have to smash a dent in the case to retain
them until you shoot it. Then they fire form to the cylinder and come
right out. I used to cut the end off of .22LRs with one of those flat
wire strippers or a pocket knife so they would fit. Accuracy was never
a thing with this gun but it was small enough to stick in your sock.
The timing sucked on it and it shaved lead if you fired DA.
It wasn't bad in single action.
This is the gun the DC cops took from me once, loaded, around 1967 and
gave it back a few days later. Imagine that these days.
That was one of the times I was shot at and since the bullets I had
were still crimped in the gun, they decided I had not done any of the
shooting. We had to punch them out with the 16d nail I had for the
purpose.
