I just saw this thread. Seems like everything has been covered already. But hell, why not.

1. A 3" Model 60 does make a good belly gun for those times nothing else is concealable. A little less flash than a 2" version. Just enough more velocity to expand a hollow point that a 2" would not provide. Sometimes, maybe. I like adjustable sights on my guns also.

But I like 2" Detective Specials also.


2. A 5 shot .44 Magnum? I agree with ya' here. Just doesn't make any sense to me over anything else in the category. A mountain gun fits the bill better.

3.Don't take my Delta Elite away from me. A compact carry gun for the woods that shoots flat but with more power than a 38 Super. It is hard to beat. There isn't no .357 mag auto out there that I like. My .460 Rowland beats it in all respects though.

4. I'll take a .22 Mag over a .17 any day of the week. For field proven reasons.
I like the "thump" of a heavier bullet.


Thanks for the mental exercise this morning. I can't sleep.


Gun Shows are almost as comical as boat ramps in the Spring.
