I’m not sure I’ll be fast enough with speed loaders by then.

I wouldn’t even be close to being fast enough with speed loaders, for some reason I can’t operate them damn things.

Default A Pair of Revolvers

I went this morning to function test the guns. Both worked flawlessly. The S&W 28 is a shooter. No issues with it. The group on the left center is all single action. The few at the top right are double action.



Head shots at 10 yards.


The groups were all at 10 yards. The random shots are all at 25 yards. I was able to keep all my shots but one on the body at that distance.

I also took a friend to shoot for his first time. Went through the safety rules first. Did a few trials with an empty gun, then we started with ammo on a M&P 9 FS and the Shield.


This is his first target. He got better as we shot. Also that round at the bottom between the 4s was intentional. He seems like a natural shooter.

I don’t have really good pictures of the Ruger, but I think I’ll need more practice with that. By the end, I was putting the 28 where I wanted it but was still figuring out the sites for the Ruger. Will need more practice.

Note: Dr H, I tried but I couldn’t figure out how to reduce the size of the images. The app doesn’t seem to allow you to edit the size of the photos.

Thank you. I was just surprised that I could hit the target pretty consistently. I’m not a precision shooter, but I can put some lead on target. Just need to work more on fundamentals.

Just add an “l” before the .jpg and it should fit. You should be able to edit the post and just slip the l in before the .jpg on all the pics and it should be good.
