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.
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.
Love that Highway Patrolman!
ReplyDeleteI know, right? :)

ReplyDeleteWait-- the dinger was at 250. The bucket was at 200, and J and I were peppering it rickety-tick with my M19.
ReplyDeleteBut...but...they said revolvers were obsolete...
ReplyDeleteGah! 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.
ReplyDeleteHad a 28 4" and a pre-27 5" once.
ReplyDeleteAnd the aforementioned Ithaca, twice.
I miss 'em.

ReplyDeleteRight after I got rid of mine.

All purty and all damn good shooters too! :-)
ReplyDeleteI 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.
ReplyDeleteThe one handgun I won't part with is the 28 pops gave me.
