Gun Musings

Went to the range yesterday. I shot this:


And this:


And this:


I traded my Vaquero for that Model 15 "no dash" at a LGS and, truth be told, I didn't get the better of the deal. I checked the timing of the Model 15 before buying it, but not closely. It doesn't carry-up on two adjacent chamber, but only if I cock it at the speed of a half-dead snail and only by a very tiny amount. Cock it normally or DA it and it locks up fine.

Caveat emptor, you know. I'll get it fixed by someone who knows what they're doing. Yeah, I could probably take it back and browbeat them into taking it back, but then again, when the hell am I ever going to find another 15-0 which has its original grips?

Anyway, I shot some of the mouse-fart loads that I had made for the snubbie. Made it the difference between "comfortable" and "yikes". That's the nice thing about a revolver; you can load it down if you want and the gun runs fine. But man, that Trail Boss powder is smokey on an indoor range!

And no, I didn't know there was such a thing as a "2011". But I'm not really big into those self-littering guns, other than .22 target pistols.
