Sorry missed this somehow.
My go to guns are the Glock 17 and S&W Model 66 (shooting 38's). I shoot the Glock in the Service Stock Pistol class (most popular class around here). IDPA changed recently and all revolvers pretty much shoot the same class. I have always used the M66 but revolver shoots are getting rare in this game.

What type of organized shooting competitions interest you? (reply)

IDPA here. There is not much running so that works for me. There are A LOT of rules but it keeps the race guns out of the game. Also, here in NY we are limited to 10 round mags and IDPA limits autos to 10 round mags (at the most).
I sure wish we had a place willing to shoot pins.

Sounds perfect. Let's talk on email. NT (reply)

Don't think I have your email. Mine is dodgum and can be sent through yahoo.

Weighs 10.5 lbs with scope. NT (reply)

Looks like an excellent set-up. Have always heard very good things about the 40X rifles, but have never owned or shot one. Over the years have had quite a few, from a Win 57, to several 52's, to a Walther Olympic, and a couple others. Never had anything quite as high tech as yours though, mine were all old school, most pre-WWII.

I am totally illiterate, photo-wise (reply)

I usually have my tech savvy daughter post photos online for me, like over at the Fedora Lounge (I'm a hat person, wear one every day).

My photos just show my costuming: silk top hat, claw hammer tail frock coat, pinstriped trousers, etc. but no guns.

The Buntlines extend downward quite a bit and are s-l-o-w coming out and going back in the holsters. I am also known for my knives, which tend to have blades at least 10 inches long.

mine is a 40x rimfire bench rest rifle...here it is... (reply)

Bryan — Fri, 02 Dec 2016 03:48:44 +0000

Remington 40x 22lr Benchrest rifle w / Lilja 1-17 twist barrel and Harrell Tuner w/ weight. Action is a Remington 40x custom shop ( R suffix) with a Jewell 2oz trigger. Weaver 36T scope and Kelby base/rings.

Have never heard of rimfire benchrest... (reply)

Though am a big fan of 52's and rimfire target rifles in general. Some people think I am a bit eccentric for carrying a 14 lbs HB 52 w/ 15X Lyman Super Target Spot around the woods for squirrels. Would enjoy seeing pics of your 52 setup.

Yes, would like to have some more. NT (reply)

Brian A — Fri, 02 Dec 2016 03:31:23 +0000

I believe you were looking for 500? I have some that had the bullets pulled and powder dumped, so is unfired and still factory primed, though fairly dirty from handling. I also have some once fired from my high power days that was shot in a Garand.

About 6 - 7 yrs. NT (reply)

No doubt. Any photos? NT (reply)

Bryan — Thu, 01 Dec 2016 13:58:38 +0000

Plus lots of good-natured ribbing ... (reply)

Scribe — Thu, 01 Dec 2016 13:39:50 +0000

about those "hand rifles." "All you have to do is poke the target with your barrel to hit it."

And holding those Buntlines (Second and Third Generations) are a pair of custom Simply Rugged Cattleman holsters.
