  1. Full disclosure, I shoot a Krieghoff K-80 in sporting clays (shotgun game) but unfortunately this was my 627 revolver
  2. The indoor range by my house opened, and I went down. I had one side to myself. They've been closed for two months. Have I used the time to dry-fire? NO Have I used the time to reload ammo? NO Have I used the time to park my fat ass on the couch? YES I was shooting my double action only revolver at SEVEN ****ING YARDS. it wasn't pretty
  3. Any word on the Southwest Regional Revolver Championship in October? Is it still on? Anybody have any info?
  4. JB Weld? I'M JOKING, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES TRY TO FIX THOSE GUNS.
  5. He was wrong in my case, it's a .357 barrel.
  6. Also not to hijack the thread, but my 929 barrel measures .357 which is the same as my 627.
  7. Hey, I used to be 6'2" tall, but years of being married to a Filipina has ground me down
  8. Since I've got nothing but free time, I'm trying to get some practice in. S&W 627, empties in the chamber, round nose bullets, no powder, fired primers in the moon clip. Par time is 3.5 seconds. Where can I go faster?
  9. On a serious note, how long do you dry fire for? I'm good for about 10 minutes before I get distracted.
  10. My 627 and 929 both have .357 barrels.
  11. I'm thinking of moving to Colorado too, California sucks
  12. Shouldn't you load .358 coated bullets because the barrel is .357?
  13. Transport of firearms is Federally regulated, not the Indiana State Police. Now, the carriers can have their own rules, as long as they follow FEDERAL regulations.
  14. Umm, ahh, I think the Federal Government determined the restrictions.
  15. Success !! Bullet puller + wrap my revo in a towel to fire the primer + bevel the bullet with a file + a C-clamp = dummy rounds to practice reloads. Thanks guys
  16. I've used FedEx next day a few times.
  17. I remember Charlie Priest, he was a biker looking guy, but he knew his way around a S&W revo.
  18. I don't really get where 7 shot revos fit in the scheme of things. Do they have a home?
  19. I recently started using 4.3gr Accurate Arms #2 behind a 160gr Bayou Name: Accurate Arms #2, 4.3gr 160gr Bayou Notes: S&W 627 5" barrel Shots: 8 Average: 787 ft/s SD: 8 ft/s Min: 778 ft/s Max: 801 ft/s Spread: 23 ft/s Power Factor Average: 126 Power Factor Low: 124 Power Factor High: 128 Barometric Pressure: 30 in Hg Temperature: 69 F Weight: 160.0 gr.
  20. I shoot a S&W 627 in ICORE, and want to make some dummy rounds to practice my reloads. My problem is I reload on my buddy's 1050, and we're all on lockdown. Can I take loaded rounds, use a bullet puller, dump the powder, fill the case with WD40, "fire" the gun to dimple the primer, then stuff the bullet back in? I don't want to just fire the primer, because my neighbors are close, and might not appreciate it. Thought?
  21. One morning I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got into my pajamas I'll never know. --Groucho Marx
  22. Once the current crisis is over, will the skills I learn these days, translate over to when I'm forced to wear pants at a match?
