Love that Highway Patrolman!

Tam said...

I know, right? :)

(When did they start wanting real money for those? "I remember when this was all orchards!" /Grandpa Simpson voice.)

I used that BLR to repeatedly smack the crap out of the half-sized dinger at 200 from field position in that strong wind, and it felt great. I wish I'd used some more .357 to do the same with the M28.

Matt G said...

Wait-- the dinger was at 250. The bucket was at 200, and J and I were peppering it rickety-tick with my M19.

But...but...they said revolvers were obsolete...

Gah! That Highway Patrolman is pretty, in part due to having a real name instead some prosaic number.

Ought to be nestled up next to an Ithaca 37 riot gun.

That a 6 inch barrel on the Patrolman?

Popularized. I hate trying to comment on blogger with my iPhone.

Had a 28 4" and a pre-27 5" once.
And the aforementioned Ithaca, twice.

I miss 'em.

Right after I got rid of mine.

I have a 28-2, 2 25-2's, a 19-4, and a nickel 37 no dash on the block. I'll pay Tam a commission if one of y'all buy.

The one handgun I won't part with is the 28 pops gave me.

I'm new to the BLR party. That looong frame sure looked funny to me until I ran those first few rounds through it. After that it got mighty attractive. I might end up hunting with it this year and I'm glad to see it represented up there this year.
