My easy to carry Colt King Cobra and other accoutrements

My Rossi RP63 3 inch stainless steel 6-round 38 special/.357 magnum

Can't beat this beauty and built like a tank! Puts S&W quality to shame. It's basically a Colt King Cobra at less than half the price.

Did some trading and picked up a sick 642

Had revolver fever and needed to get my fix.

1980's duty workhorses

My two old police trade in revolvers. Ruger police service six and a s&w model 64. Pretty much the same game made by different manufacturers. Both 6 shot, stainless and 4 inch bull barrel. What one would you choose for a duty carry gun and why ?

New grips for the 686-5

Robertson's Trading on eBay has these Herrett's round to square grips. The finish on them is pretty ugly with a yellow varnish of some sort. I also noticed the grips were proud of the back strap. The positive is they fit tight and there is a lot of wood work with.

I stripped the finish and sanded them to fit the frame. Finished with several coats of tung oil, sanding with 600 grit between coats. They now look and feel great.

J frame or K frame sub

The revolver bug has its teeth firmly in me and I want something small to carry, either in a jacket pocket or on my belt.

I’m between a model 10-7 2”, a pre model 10 (cause it’s cool) and a 649 j frame. I know the J frames are smaller but I like having 6 shots vs 5. I just don’t know if K frames are too big for that kind of use.

Started life as a transitional 38-44 Heavy Duty. Somewhere along the way someone converted it to a Bullseye gun by changing the barrel and adding adjustable sights - the front being a King's reflector sight (there is a mirror in the well of the sight base that reflects light up onto the gold insert of the front sight). The hammer is a wide-spur Micro. Work most likely done by the King Gunsight Company. The black walnut Roper pattern stocks were added much later and were made by iconic grip maker Keith Brown.

22 mag back from warranty

CA 8 shot 22 mag. Sent for warranty work 2 months later new barrel crane cylinder internals. Geez everything but the frame. But trigger resets and all rounds ignited. Yeah

This little guy always finds its way to a pocket in the summer. It gets tossed around more than just about anything I've got. Had to get rid of some flaking coating so it's got a brushed finish now, and has held up well considering some of the horror stories some have told about uncoated aluminum.

New Favorite EDC

Hello everyone! I’m new to owning a revolver and decided to make a post. I did a lot of research over the past year and finally decided to make the decision of getting a 632 UC TI. So far it has been a dream. Even though 32 H&R magnum is a bit hard to come by where I’m from, I feel that it’s the best cartridge to carry out of a J-Frame revolver. Super lightweight, mild recoil, 6 shots, and solid ballistics. What’s not to love? I decided to pair this with a PST holster and a Checkerboard Creek Customs Smitty wing. Also to comfortably carry my HKS Speedloader I have a Last Resort Tactical R.A.C. 6-shot holder. Lastly I decided to throw in my knife to complete my EDC.

WGW ,again. I found two unfinished grips at a gunshow for cheap $ .

I thought they looked to fit K frame. (Yup) Did some minor finish work, dug up one screw, applied lacquer. Maybe they slipped out the backdoor at a manufacturer. Edit. I'd like to get trained and able to checker these .

New to me S&W 360pd

New to me wheelgun Wednesday. S&W 360

I like carrying light weight snubs and added this 360 to my 340. They are medium spicy with good 38 but yes they are a handfull with 357. Mostly got 357 options for ammo sharing and the option of nuclear should I feel that’s warranted, but 5 rounds of 38 +p HST wadcutters should be reasonably enough to get out of harms way.
