    Cleaned my wheel guns today and took a picture. Aren't they purdy?

    I think the collection is almost complete for what I want. These are all shooters, none are mint (well, the Alaskan is, it's new), some are missing boxes, not what a "true" collector would want. I just have fun with them, I love revolvers.

    Left to right:

    -Smith & Wesson Model 642, .38sp.

    -Smith & Wesson Model 60, .357mag.

    -Smith & Wesson Model 686, .357mag.

    -Ruger Super Redhawk Alaskan, .454 Casull.

    -Smith & Wesson Model 686, .357mag.

    -Smith & Wesson Model 617, .22LR.

    -Smith & Wesson Model 629, .44mag.


    I'd like to find three more revolvers, then I'll be reaching my self imposed limit. Wouldn't want to appear obsessive or anything...:)

    The ones I'm still looking for are:

    -a cowboy looking gun. Maybe a Vaquero or Bisley in .45 Colt, or a BFR in stupid big (like a .45/70). Maybe even a Freedom Arms Model 83.

    -a 3" S&W, either a 686 or a 629. Must have unfluted cylinder.

    -a S&W 460 or 500. Need to try them both first.











    Ok, and a blue, vintage Colt Python...

    Man, that is some nice revo porn!
    You know, I'm a self impossed revolver nut even though I own a coupe of semi autos. However, I fancy more small frame snub nose revolvers than anything else. I like the big guys too but I could never shoot them worth a damn, unlike my j frames. I learned how to shoot with a snubbie at an early age and I still do consistently. My other passions are single action revolvers, more so than medium to large DA/SA revolvers.

    Nice, the 460 is the way to go, I don't actually shoot much 460 through mine, but 45LC is like shooting a .22, no recoil and a lot of fun.


    Should look at adding a model 58 to the list as well, it's a oddball round but also lots of fun.

    Man, I love that pic so much that I'm using it as wallpaper for my home screen in my Samsung Galaxy S3. Oh yeah, and those revolvers...... I'm at a loss for words. Bravo on a fine group of handguns.
