Default A Pair of Revolvers

Just picked these up tonight from an Estate sale. I’ve been wanting a 357 revolver to go with my Henry rifle. Now I have two.

Ruger Blackhawk with a 9mm cylinder.


The reverse side


S&W 28-1


Highway Patrolman




The owner kept them in great condition. Can’t wait to get these to the range.

Great find, follow-up after the range trip.

It would be nice to see the whole pistols at once. On my monitor, I can only see a small part of each pistol at a time.

In other words, it would be nice to see this:

Imgur let's you resize the image. Yours are over 2000 pixels wide. You need to resize them to 1024 pixels wide. Just click on the image in Imgur and then click on "Edit" down at the bottom. Up at the right hand corner you will see the image size. Change the width to 1024, click "Apply", then click "Save."

Beautiful revolvers Andy, congratulations! Are you going to use those in November’s class?

BTW: I can see the whole picture correctly on my phone.
