I took my brand new Taurus Tracker 627 in 357 magnum to the range yesterday. I was very impressed with it. I had to wonder if the Colt Python that my dealer had in his case could be so much better that it would justify a price that was three times the cost of the Taurus. The Colt was definitely...

After waiting 2 weeks the Taurus 627 Tracker in 357 Mag finally came in. It has a 6.5 inch barrel and a 7 round cylinder. I'm happy it came with the better Taurus grip. I can't wait to try this at the shooting range tomorrow.

Obviously I have a completely different view of what is sexy.

I register every firearm I buy, especially the ones that have a lifetime warranty.

GunMag Warehouse has a great price on some 44 magnum, 50 round box of target ammo (240 gr), manufactured by Ammo Inc for $32.99. I ordered 3 boxes and shipping was $9.99.

A local sporting goods store has a S&W, 44 Magnum snub nose revolver in their display case. It’s similar to the one in this picture. I’d bet the recoil on that revolver would be brutal. If I remember correctly the price was $1199.00. Who in the heck would buy a revolver like this? Why would you...

No, I haven't made any changes and I don't feel vulnerable. I have been prepared for a major earthquake for over a quarter of a century. And I don't fear people of other races or religions nor do I think the sky is falling.

Ammo prices have come down enough that I bought some 357 Magnum at $32.99 for a box of 50 and 38 Special at $26.99 for a box of 50. My local gun store also had a couple of brands of 9mm for $12.99. I had to stock up on the 357 mag since the Taurus 627 I ordered should be coming in next week.

A tale of two watches. This beautiful Bulova watch was given to me a number of years ago by my daughter. I wear it on "dressed up" occasions and when visiting my daughter. :D The cost was more than a couple of hundred dollars. This is my everyday watch. It's a no name watch with a fake...

I love retirement. No one watching my every move, no boss, no rules and regulations. I can go to the gun range when I feel like it. I've traveled to almost every state and traveled to 5 continents. Once a month my former employer sends me a check and once a month Uncle Sam sends me a check...

Does a .22 magnum count? This is my NAA chambered in .22 mag pictured with a 7mm cartridge.

It's never time to stop buying if you have someone to leave them to when you pass. I'm 78 and just ordered a Taurus 627 in 357 Magnum with a 6.5 inch barrel. Hopefully it will be in next week.

After basic training and tech school, I spent the rest of my enlistment in SAC. I spent one tour at Andersen AFB, Guam where our "D" models flew missions to Vietnam. Sorry about the quality of the photos, they were taken in 1966.

Many, many years ago I pocket carried a Colt Junior in .25 ACP because my job required me to be in very bad neighborhoods late at night. My employer also had a rule that carrying a firearm was cause for automatic termination. Fortunately that was only for a couple of years and then I began...

The only celebrity I would LOVE to see leave this country is Jane Fonda. She should have been charged with treason and never allowed back into the U.S.A.

Wife and I have been camping all of our life. We already have everything he mentioned (and way more) in the basement of our house AND in the RV we own. The only thing we don't keep permanently in the RV is a firearm.

Yea! USPS finally delivered the grips for my revolver this morning. I really think the new wood grips give the revolver a traditional look over the plastic American Flag grips.

It will be interesting to see if Toyota's new Hydrogen engine will be the future rather than electric.

Last week I ordered new grips for my Heritage Rough Rider from the manufacturer. On Friday I received an email from them stating the grips had been shipped along with a tracking number. According to the tracking number the grips were scheduled to arrive today (Monday). Well, that ain't gonna...

Here's what I refer to as the shiny part of my gun collection.
