Just curious if there is anyone on here that carry SAA's(DA also). I know I will get flack for this, but....but in my experience......guys that carry or shoot six's can shoot the wings off a fly just about. Snub nose's don't count...unless your Bob Munden.

On the occasion I carry my Taurus 82 38spl. Not very often though because I do not have a belt holster for it and my IWB has an open bottom that the barrel pokes through making it a little uncomfortable.

Years ago when I had to send in my Para Ordnance for some spring work I carried a Ruger .357 revolver.

Those were a rough five weeks...

Great gun, but HUGE for only holding six shots... heavy, hard to conceal (for me a least).

I like shooting wheelers for fun, but personally I do not carry if I can avoid it...

that's cool!

the one hard thing I had was finding a good holster for a 4" Mag. easy to find one for the long barrels. I did find a beauty from Galco that was for the 4". I like wearing it cross draw alot but itis also able to strong side with same holster.

I carry a Ruger Vaquero (old style) chambered for .45 long. Barrel is 4 5/8ths. Carry in a drop leg western holster. I have found the full gunbelt rig is much more comfortable and easier to work with than belt carry.

Many years ago I carried a 2" Model 19 S&W. Back then it was often concealed.
I have carried a NM Blackhawk .45 Colt, 4-5/8" bbl. With Ruger loads in it it barks loud enough to hurt. It'd be a sad day for any flesh in the way of those 300 grainers.
I've also carried my ROA, especially back when that was all you could carry during muzzleloader season wile hunting.

I carry a taurus 65 .357 every single day. 4 inch barrel. Keep it in a shoulder holster. I don't have a problem concealing it, because i don't conceal it. If i know i have a friend that uncomfortable, i will occasionally throw my coat over it, but its a dickies work coat and prints badly. "its the thought that counts" is what i say when people see it printing. ha

Love the weight of it there.

More then I expected.... Now I won't feel so funny if I carry a Cimmeron :celebrate

Really surprising to see people not always carrying 1911's and Glock/glock styles. Me like. On the slight chance.......anyone carry 2? :lol:
