I never said he had good judgement and never will. He ruined a perfectly good rifle for no good reason. It's just a true story that I thought I'd share.

:lol: :lol: The truth is stranger than fiction. I'm surprised he didn't get NJP (Article 15, Office Hours, whatever you guys called it) for destroying government property. If they wanted to be hard-assed about it, I suppose it would have qualified for a Court Martial.

In 2017 I plan to get one of those .410, 45 pistols. S&W if I can hack it and Taurus if not.
I once got to shoot the slickest Ruger Security Six. I would LOVE to have had that gun as my own!

You won't go wrong with the Taurus Judge 4510TKR-3SS Revolver. Another buddy and I bought one as a birthday present for our compadre and he loves it. I've shot it and it's good for what it's made for, close range. I believe we paid approximately $450 - $500 (I've seen them online for less).

The oldest two boys (11 & 9) and I just came in. We took the S&W 65 out in the yard and. I introduced them to the .357. They both liked it. But the 9 year old touched off the first one and a grin came on his face that went from ear to ear. Lol. He's an addict I think. Here it is again.

Let him shoot a S&W 500. That will cure him quick and dandy. The fun is done after the first three rounds.

I looked at both Taurus and the Smith and Wesson Governor. Went with the Governor as you can see by my avatar. Can also shoot .45 auto with moon clips. Like the fact it takes 3 different ammo types. Small enough to conceal carry also. My desert feral dog gun.

I watched R. Lee Ermy shoot one on TV once. They did a slomo of it after his first shot and his arm, bones and all were like a sine wave. No thanks. I think I'll just stay out of territory where ya have to use one of those.

My ex-s-I-L had bought one and we shot it while down home over Thanksgiving. My grandsons, then around 10 & 12, were hot to shoot anything that went bang or boom. They pulled the trigger once and handed it back. I shot two cylinders and that was waaaaaaaay too much.

Yes Sir Jerry D. Not for the "recoil sensitive" for sure.
My son had one a few years back. 5 shot as I recall. 3 foot flame visible in daylight. He dared me to one hand a full wheel and I did. Does test your wrist and arm bones for sure.

Very cool Wade. Love to hear a story like that. Keep up the good work my friend. Reminds me of the 4 .308 rounds my 8 year old grandson put thru my custom .308 on his birthday in October. He wanted to try 400 yards first three shots and came pretty darn close to a hit, " go big or go home" I guess. Last shot at 100 yards he nailed the 12 inch plate. Will never forget that look on his face no matter how many years pass.

God bless you, Valerie and the boys my friend, Jerry

Thanks Dogg and Jerry. Mine usually stays at home unless it's in the field just like you. I do really enjoy shooting revolvers though. For toting around the 1911 is just a lot more comfortable and mo boolets.

My boys love their 22's too. We have a lot of fun shooting their rifles. Growing up we never shot unless we were hunting. And the only handgun dad ever had was an old 9 shot 22 that we never got to shoot much. Me, i try to get the boys shooting as many different things as possible as often as possible.

Thanks, guys. I appreciate it. Mine are primarily for home defense also. In the snubby I have a couple of rounds loaded with #9 birdshot.
