Random Revolver Musings

US Firearms makes some pretty cool blasters; check out their well, check out all their guns.  “Cool” doesn’t even do them justice.  What I really dig is that you can order their guns online and have them shipped to the stocking dealer of your choice, so I could in theory order one of their “snubnose” pistols and have it shipped essentially right to me.

I am sad that Taurus discontinued the Gaucho - it was a steal at less than $400.  Sure, it wasn’t a Ruger or a Beretta, but it was a good entry level six shooter.  At least they’re still offering their .45 Colt pump action rifle.

Looking through my gun cabinent, I realized I only have one .45 caliber revolver.  Gotta fix that.

    I left a comment to this effect on the 3:10 to Yuma post…

    Amazing attention to detail!

    I’m glad I hung on to my Gaucho now. Had no idea they’d discontinued them.

    This is an example of a post designed to make me wish for more money…

    Uberti makes a Schofield with a 3.5″ barrel. You can get in in .45 Colt and .44/40. And I want one sooooo badly.

    USFA makes the guns Colt wishes they’d been making for the last 20 years. Compared to a nice USFA, a Colt Custom Shop Peacemaker looks like a Taurus Gaucho.
