HighVelocity Posted April 29, 2008 Author Share Posted April 29, 2008 Thanks for all the replies. Two things definitely ring true to me. The wheelgun is art and it's just plain fun. Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hopalong Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 I've been sitting aside watching but I'll toss in my 2 pennies. When I started shooting a wheelgun it was the Challenge of the gun that got me there. In the mean time I have met and shot with a wonerful group of die hard wheelgunners, and some not so die hard (like me) that stray back and forth. I have not met the challenge of the gun but maybe one day I will, until then whipping up on a few autoblaster guys and gals every now and then helps. so now it is more the people than the challenge that keeps my shooting the wheel. Hopalong Not very good, but maybe one day....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocBall Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Hey Hop, I didn't get my classifiers sent in in time for AR. Still going to bring the 625 so you can take it with you. I'm still up in the air about the nats. Rev class is very tempting. I think it'll make me slow down some and right now I think that could be a good thing.

Revopop Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 I shot my first match with a 625 yesterday, my 2nd with a revolver. My answer to your question: It just feels right. I probably shot my most accurate match ever, and I've probably spent less time dryfiring with it than any other gun I have. I see a lot of "wheels" turning in my future!

Glockopop, I was watching and I think you've got excellent potential! Good job--I could tell you were having fun with that 625. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revopop Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Thanks Mike. I had a hell of a lot of fun on Sunday. I think I'm going to stick with the revolver for the forseeable future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxD Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 I think I'm going to stick with the revolver for the forseeable future. Then I'm afraid you will have to change your name. May I suggest "Revopop"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slflr Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I would be willing to bet that we are more likely to; 1. Have sons that detassel corn as a hobby. 2. Plant tomatoes and look forward to the first BLT of the summer. 3. Have a "Bug out bag" stuffed with what what we think will get us thru for a week or so if the s**t hits the fan. 4. Know what patchouli oil is good for. 5. Have wives that like the smell of Hoppes and consider it an aphrodisiac. 6. Save their old primers and know how to reload them when the the time comes. 7. Expect the time to come when we will need to reload them. 8. Have an autographed copy of "Unintended Consequences". 9. Don't worry about where their next Federal primer is coming from 'cause they bought 50,000 a couple years ago. 10. Stockpile lead wheel weights and think about building a shot tower "just in case". 11. Own a muzzel loader "just in case". 12. Have a pilots license, but would rather drive to Tulsa "just in case". 13. Keep a pantry full of food "just in case". 14. Have more than 160 lbs of dogs in the living room. 15. Not stand in line at sea food restaurants. 16. Like Dean Martin decor and good Scotch in upstairs bars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nashvillebill Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Man, I got a lot to catch up on. So I'm guessing if I did a Google search for the stuff to reload old primers I would end up on some kinda government watch list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
