LOL, I havent been this amused in a long time.

Revolvers are just a way for those John Wayne wannabees to compensate for tiny units in the shorts.

(first he threw the bait, then he played the bait on the water, then he sat back and reeled them in, laughing at them all).

Then he tossed one more jab for those really lacking perception.

Hehe, I keep picturing that scene from the old movie City Heat with Burt Reynolds and Clint Eastwood, where they pull out their guns with the really long barrels, and Burt looks so dissapointed that his is shorter.

Are you one of those guys that has to put a flashlight, laser, compensator and extended magazine on your gun before you feel "ready"?

Oh, and don't forget to buy the latest fad in "self-defense" ammo. If you didn't pay $30 for six rounds of it, don't expect it to be effective. Would you trust your life to anything less?

I'm still trying to find the 88 Magnum I saw in Johnny Dangerously.

"It shoots through schools."

A handgun with a rail to hold a flashlight... Now there's a fad that is gonna embarass some people a decade from now... Oh well... you can allways use the rail to mount a bayonet or rocket launcher.

Lazs, have you seen the new shooting series on TV? I think it's called "Pimp My Nine".

Dago · « **Reply #98 on:** July 02, 2005, 02:29:08 PM »

Funny stuff.

No, dont have a rail gun, nor any lazers, no tactical light, not even any scopes, (other than a small one that came with a .22 rifle I got as a kid, and not sure where that scope is now).

But, among my small collection of handguns, no revolvers. Not particularly attracted to them.

No scope on my rifles, and I shoot trap and skeet with my old hunting shotgun, (changeable chokes though).

Dont feel the need to keep a gun loaded in the house, rarely have ammo even near a weapon. Not paranoid, and dont feel I need a loaded weapon to feel secure.

Yes, autos can help absorb recoil. Shoot the 44mag in a Ruger revolver, than shoot the 44 mag in a Desert Eagle. Big differance in felt recoil. Anyone with any experience with handguns knows that.

And NO, I dont not believe that we will ever experience a "SHTF" time or event in our lives, and I do not stock ammo and web gear for that eventuality.

The guns I do own and shoot I do so because I enjoy it. Like flying an airplane, or driving a nice car, I enjoy these pastimes because I appreciate that machinery, the speed, the whatever.

So, blabber on, insult me if it makes you feel better about yourselves, I dont care, I know who and what I am in real life, I enjoy the success in my life, family and career, and I just love seeing fools get torqued up about nonsense.

BTW I am typing this from a hotel/resort in Arizona where I am staying while on a business trip, and it is sweet. Later this month I am off to Rome again.

So says the man who gave us such classic lines in this very thread as "Revolvers are just a way for those John Wayne wannabees to compensate for tiny units in the shorts". I dont see that anyone here insulted you my friend. Responded to your fishin stories yes, but no one was any more insulting than you were yourlself. Take that as you wish. Enjoy Rome!

I have to assume you dont understand the concept of baiting.

I think your powers of observation are lacking, it seems among other comments, there was this one by Masherbrum/karaya

Read the whole thread before you comment on what people have or havent said. Thanks.

Some say I get personal, and sometimes I do when someone pisses me off by insulting or attacking my country. I guess I am not the only one guilty of personal attacks.

I have had some fun here, but sadly a few dorks gotta get nasty.

The reality is the .357 has very strong ballistics. Revolvers are fine weapons, but really arent considered by many to be ideal carry weapons. But, for someone buying thier first handgun I wouldnt recommend the .357, I would suggest something less powerful that they could learn to shoot comfortably, and after plenty of practice, then move up to a large or stronger caliber.
