    Chap at the shooting club today was using a .357 magnum long barred revolver, very nice (and loud to say the least!) it was too!

    And if you think a long barrelled 357 is noisy you should hear the 21/2" barrelled model 19 with strong ammo!!!

    Re: Let's See Your Pistols

    My gun club had an open day at the weekend so I took BB member Bigmul along to try his hand. We started him off with a Ruger 10/22 then moved on to a Marlin lever action in .357". He shot well so it was time for a bigger bang...............
    Out came my Ruger Old Army:

    My dad never got money for his re-loading gear, customizations, spare parts or ammunition. To say hes still angry about is an understatement.

    His colt .45 was worth double what they gave him.

    Re: Let's See Your Pistols

    Me got one of these! .44 Remington copy by Pietta. Big Bang, smoke and wide grins. Bit of a pain to load but such fun to shoot. Quite a good shooter for a front stuffer too!

    Smile Re: Let's See Your Pistols

    well
    i've added a couple more pissles to my collection, another webley junior and a sheridan E9A in 20cal (5.0mm)
    i don't have a pic of the recently added junior (i swapped it for the nemesis) but i do have a pic of the sheridan

    benjamin sheridan (or possibly crosman ) E9A... Co2 powered



    it's a lovely and comfy pistol to use but is damned loud

    i'll have to get a silencer adapter made for it

    btw, it's solid brass under the paint (cylinder, breech and barrel) i've seen these stripped back to the brass and highly polished, this one may just end up with the same treatment
    the frame is cast ally, it polishes up nice too

    Really good pistols, they are loud like you say. Thinking of selling mine to fund a .44 revolver though.

    Re: Let's See Your Pistols

    Difficult to beat .44 BP revolvers or s.45 semi-autos, but here are mine:

    The ones left in France... including a 1989 Crossman I got for my birthday from my father... oh, man, that's a classic then!

    A Webley MkI from the 50s or 60s

    [img][/img]

    A fun gun with blowback

    By the way, there is a shooting club near my place but they prove difficult to get in; I have already asked 3 times for joining instructions but only got a vague email, is it a common practice to get rid of canvassers and chavs?
