The Trader Keith sling was recommended by several members here to me several years ago. Liked the first one, I own several now. Previously used leather or nylon and was constantly hitching the rifle up on my shoulder.

Revolver arrived today, very pleased @Mark Biggerstaff, thanks again! Looking forward to shooting it.

@shark_za , much better than Ronald.

You're a great man, @Mark Biggerstaff! Thanks for the sale, you make it too easy!

Well, chatted with our AH master enabler @Mark Biggerstaff of @R&M FIREARMS today and it appears I'll shortly be the owner of a very nice S&W Model 67-1 revolver. Thanks for everyone's opinions and comments on this thread. Mark tempted me with a Model 17 also, but I have 2022 taxidermy being...

Hard to figure. Going through the airport in Eugene OR awhile ago with a brother, had a P-38 can opener in his wallet from fishing/ camping, TSA caught that. That is a small scrap of metal!

Three trips to Eastern Cape, saw a boomslang and a small striped snake in late April. The other trips in July, none were seen. Much colder in July.

Flipped a couple rocks while birding. Ring-necked snake and milk snake under same rock.

Stopping in Woodman's every fall in Madison after the annual bird hunting trip, the Stone Ridge cheap brand (3 year cheddar) was something to look forward to. Always load up on several kinds of cheese for the holidays and Klement brats. I enjoy visiting Wisconsin.

Nothing this fancy for certain. Spent some range time with a family member after work today and the 686 no dash had a few rounds through it. I like this new to me revolver. Trigger in single action is very crisp.

This would definitely involve a factory job for fitting, not by myself.

@Ridge Runner I appreciate your comments and experiences on the Taurus revolvers. I haven't had the opportunity to try a Charter Arms.

Considering the Model 10. You could call me fairly stupid for passing on a very nice one 10 years ago (would like that opportunity back) that was nearly pristine.

I've read about that somewhere and never even gave it a thought. I have a Ruger Bisley Blackhawk in .45 Colt with a separate .45 ACP cylinder, always thinking of this with single action vs double action. Is it simpler to swap out a fitted cylinder versus a complete assembly with a new fitted yoke?

Thanks, I have considered this, wanting to use the large amount of .38 Special brass on hand.
