How do picrel compare to the original full size Wranglers? I have one of the originals and it is my favorite .22lr plinker. Are the little birds heads ones just as good? Is it worth picking one up?Also, revolver general I guess.
whats a good entry level 357 revolver? A buddy of mine recommended a Model 19.
>>65016715I love my Super Wrangler. Silver cerakote scratched my itch for stainless without the extra price, .22LR is still cheap even in my shitty ban state, and .22 WMR out of a 5.5" barrel gives enough energy that if I got stuck using it for HD I wouldn't be too offput (it's about equal to .380 ACP FMJ out of a 2" pocket pistol).
>>65016715i have such an itch for a burnt bronze wrangler with the birds head grip. i entered a raffle to win one along with a golden boy, the drawing is in may wish me luck bros.
Does anyone currently make blued:Short 6 shot revolvers.5 shot 357?
>>65016760it's yours
>>6501673819s are OK with .38 +Ps and occasional .357sTry Ruger GP100. Heavier build.
>>65016971> 5 shot 357Taurus 650 is good, but a bit heavy for daily carry unless you spend the money for a high quality holster. The stock grips are OK, but the old model 85 slab-side boot grips seem to soak up recoil better in my hands. Still available on eBay, like $25? Simple screwdriver surgery.
>>65017561>Blued
>>65016738My first pistol was a model 19 4 inch blued. Built in the 70s police trade in. Very nice gun i wouldn't go as far as to call them delicate but they are essentially a 38 special with a heavy barrel chamberd for .357 and if hypothetically you ran nothing but 357 thru it the gun will eventually fail. That being said I have ran alot more magnum thru it then i maybe should have hell even some buffalo bore. and mine looks and functions fine but I now stick to 38s for target shooting and 38+P and standard pressure 357mag for animal control. Still got it still use it 13 years now
I want a .357 mag for carry but I really don't want to spend much (like to keep it around 500) are the rossi rp63 revolvers any good? How do they compare to charter/tarus?
>>65018325Is that the 45 acp/lc redhawk? How do you like it? I've been eyeing them for a while now.
>>65016715Grip didnt feel to different when I fingerbanged one at a gun store. For my money I'd rather get a Super Wrangler and have the better sights and .22 mag capability.
>>65018325How do you like that birds head wrangler?
>>65018418If you look around a bit you can find a used sp101 for about $500.
>>65018727I'm seeing them for like 550, I could do that
>>65018426I do like it, the problem i found is the when shooting 45 auto it has to be sighted in again. I found 45 win mag works in it as does 460 rowland. And anything short of hot 45 colt feels tameBuy one see what happens to you.>>65018722Its fun but it was part of a buy one get one deal. I'd rather have a longer barrel desu.Any you fuck with 327 or 32 mag?
>>65016738I got a S&W Model 66. Works for me.
How bad are Charter Arms Bulldog revolvers?
Snagged these 2 Vaqueros this week. how come no one told me cowboy guns were so much fun
I really want a Colt cap and ball revolver or two but everywhere I look Uberti and Pietta both still appear to have issues with their 1851s and 1860s. And used guns are even more hit and miss. However Uberti Remington 1858 should be allright. It just looks bulky to me and I have no way to test shoot one. Any experiences or advice here? Going to shoot cowboy action with it here in yurop
Thoughts on the S&W Ultimate Carry in .32 H&R? I read the quality control is really bad, but was wondering if they fixed that by now.
>>65022646>Any you fuck with 327 or 32 mag?That would be me. I have 3 revolvers and a Henry chambered in it.
>>65022646Cool I was planning on mostly shooting 45 colt through it anyway
>>65026627I never got into colt repros, but I have three .44 Pietta 1858s and an Uberti 1875 all of which work great.
Dragoon or Walker?
>>65026677Just get the S&W 642 PC in .38spl and call it a day.
Heritage is better for the four clicks
>>65027092hmmm. Well at least the 1858 remains an option both in .44 and .36
>poorfag general
>>65016715What's the most sci fi looking revolver I can buy? Even if it sucks
>>65028457
The Pietta Ace looks neat, but is is it more worth it to get a Pietta Sheriff instead for the loading lever? Having to pay for an extra loading tool doesn't sound great
>>65029619I have two Sheriffs, they're great.
My friend just bought his first gun, feeling proud
how valuable is my grand pappys 22 revolverit's got a interchangable cylinder for 22mag and lrprobably some fuckin sears and robuck special from the 80s, probably has less than 200 rounds through it
>>65027533this
>>65030566you can probably get a nickel and a piece of chewing gum out of it
>>65028457Just get any revolver you like and glue some doodads on it like they do in Hollywood.
>>65016715My shooting buddy had that exact gun and I got to fire about 30 shots thru it the day we went. Also shot a .357 Redhawk (snubnose version). It was the first time I had fired any revolvers at all, so I can easily compare it in my mind and remember it well. I couldn't tell you about value as I have no idea, neither gun was mine. I loved the .22 though, it is an excellent little plinker and very easy to use and/or teach a new shooter the basics of revolvers.
>>65018418Charter Arms. Don't bother with new S&Ws' shambolic QC.
>>65016738ruger gp100
>>65031618>Charter ArmsFelt it should be said that Charter Arms also doesn't have great QC. The cylinders sometime get stuck and need to be hit with a mallet to release. Brass also gets stuck right after shooting, and can be a pain to eject. The ejection rod caps are always coming loose (inb4 loctite).I myself have an Undercover, it's complete shit.
>>65016971Diamondback makes a 6-shot, .357, 2” snub called the SDR. Comes in stainless or black nitride. Blued is hard to find these days. https://diamondbackfirearms.com/shop/sdr-2-357-mag-38-spl-p-black-nitride/
>>65028295>seething that he can't afford 1k revolver
>>65033548Revolvers usually cost more than semi auto pistols, not sure what he’s talking about. Bad bait
>>65016760It's going to one of the event organizer's brother in laws, buddy. Same as every other raffle in the history of mankind.
