Sidearms & Scatterguns Show Off Your Double Action Revolvers

[diggler1833]

Found several old threads from searching, but nothing dedicated to simply pictures of nice DA revolvers.

I'm a huge fan. Picking up brass is so much easier for us crippled old guys.

I'll start with a few of my favorites:
S&W 629 no dash

S&W 629-2 Classic Hunter

Colt Python

 

[diggler1833]

S&W 27-2

S&W 16-4

Colt Trooper Mk III (.357, this is an early 1969 model with recessed cylinder and not the fenced cylinder that is normally seen)

 

[Bender]

I looooooove wheel guns!

I had to sell some off years ago when I was between jobs. I miss them.... but I’ll replace them some time. But here is a couple.

 

[Bender]

I had a mint Trooper III that I regret selling the most. It had the slightly rounded butt on it, so 80’s? I picked up cheap and was sold with some others. I’ll have to go find pics of them.

 

[diggler1833]

S&W 19-4

S&W 28-2

S&W 686-6 (my carry revolver)

Yes, around 1980 or so up until 1983. I don't have my book on hand to reference, but I think it happened around the time of the introduction of the .22 mag version.

I suppose not.
.... but please feel free to post those in any thread.

Went to a local shop to arrange for a transfer and saw this 686 no lock PPC built by George Wessinger. Was able to pick it up for the price of the Aristocrat sight and barrel alone. DA trigger is sweet.

[Downtown]

I'm not sure most people even remember PPC. That was some fun. So were Bowling Pin shoots. I've a full rib long slide 1911 just for pins somewhere in the back of the safe.

 

[Downtown]

Smith & Wesson Combat Magnum.

Those were going for $995 on Gunbroker a while back. I really think they would have sold better with a pair of $200 grips added to them with corresponding price increase.

There are still quite a few Turnbull Super Blackhawks for sale I see...

I don't know what a dippi is, but it is a plain jane kangaroo rat. I'm in east central colorado near Deer Trail....

It’s a short nickname for the scientific name.
Wikipedia
Scientific name: Dipodomys

We called ‘em dippi’s or kangaroos out in Nevada. Fun to watch and as kids we kept them as pets.

Love the Alaskan, but it’s a shame they print read instruction manual on barrel !

Some custom Rugers have that removed - and barrel lightened.
