Yes, hope to keep cooking. Appreciate the well wishes.

Thanks! I see them frequently referred to in the various gun boards as "built like a tank."

Ken, you and I seem to travel the same handgun pathways at about the same time…since we think a like does that mean we have great minds?

This followed me home today. I took a handgun to the lgs that I just couldn’t get along with. When he told me how he’d trade I almost came across the counter and hugged his neck.

Ruger GP100 Lipsey’s Exclusive. 357, 4.2” barrel.

I haven’t put it on paper and dialed the sights in, but my youngest and I did some plinking with 38 special and two different 357 loads this evening (his first time shooting a handgun). It’ll shoot better than I can make use of. And it’s very mild mannered with heavier loads. I think it’ll stay!

Now if I can just get hold of a 3” like Ken did.

My local gunshop was able to get one recently. I had to immediately make a holster as I had nothing to fit a barrel that long. The holster pattern I used is a Mexican double loop with saddle tan Fiebing dye. Truly the Single Action Army of rimfire revolvers, and it shoots great too.

I made all the leather except the belt. The belt is a commercial Hunter 2 inch with 25 cartridge loops for 22 LR, (no way I am making and hand stitching that one). Holster is a Mexican double loop for the Wrangler Single Action Army, holster for the Bond Rawhide derringer, and a previously made Green River knife (handled with ironwood), and sheath, The ammo pouch to the right of the holster works perfectly for loading out one at a time for the single shot rifle shown or 2 at a time for the SAA.
