Well picked up some blazer 9mm and armscor 357 magnum from cabelas today and went to the range today. Blazer tan fine but every single 357 round of the armscor ammo was out of spec as the overall length was too long and it would not chamber in my GP100. Returned it to cabelas and warned them they may want to pull the lot from their shelves as it would be dangerous to fire. Last time I take a chance on armscor.

When I showed my FIL my router table he said come get some stuff I have more than I need. I of course said fine. I got a 3hp router, a trim router, a circle jig, straight edge cutter, and a really nice woodpecker router plate. I’m happy and glad he came over because I was just getting ready to drop about $500 on a new router and trim router.

Not today, but recently got to bring home this Ruger Super Blackhawk in .44 Mag. It's a 1986 I bought used in great condition. It shoots great, I love the way it handles, and I'm hoping to use it next deer season. Lucky for me, it fits pretty well in the US Cavalry-style holster I have for my Pietta replica Remington 1858 NMA.

I just sold my last rental property and am no longer an evil landlord in the eyes of NY state ! In celebration of this I splurged and bought my dream side by side .

I'm a little late, but oh well.
In honor of the RE:4 Remake I bought myself a Blacktail (Springfield XD9) and in the original it has a laser on. I don't like lasers on guns, so for the look I split the difference. Streamlight TLR3.

Very nice! I have a lot of work to do on the range and with dry-fire before I'll feel confident enough to take it afield with iron sights. The extra 2.5" of sight radius does help me a lot over my 5" S&W 629. The biggest issue I'm having is taking a consistent grip on the plow handle, so I'm probably going to use the Hogue monogrip in the field and put the wood stocks on for the rest of the year.
Sweeeet ride! Bought mine,(Commander XTP) last October and still cannot believe I hadn’t bought one sooner. They are ridiculously fun

Once you run a few through it, it's not as much of a beast as people say it is. The weight is helpful with recoil. The grips are not too much of an issue but if you want a better / firmer grip, the Hogue's are the way to go. Mine drilled that doe right through the heart at 55-60 yards. The red dot sight was key, I couldn't have done that with the iron sights.

I already put the Hogue rubber monogrip on it and sanded down the finger grooves. Recoil wasn't painful at all with the original stocks. My problem was that it was difficult for me to reacquire my "sweet spot" on the grip after every time recoil sent it rolling back in my hand. My pet load is nothing crazy. It's a 260 gr cast SWC over 19 gr of H-110 powder in a .44 Special case for a 1285 fps average in the Ruger. The Hogue cuts down the roll big-time and lets me find my grip again right away.
As far as a red dot, I haven't had much luck with them on my S&W 629. I tried 3 different red dots on 2 different mounts and kept running into problems that made them impractical. With the SBH Hunter, you have those nice rings that mount to the rib. I like your setup a lot. Compared to yours, none of the mounting solutions for the regular SBH seem all that appealing. Most picatinny rails require the revolver to be drilled and tapped. The ones that don't probably won't hold up to .44. After poor results with my S&W, I don't want to spend a bunch of time and money chasing optics solutions that might not work well when I could spend that same time and money reloading and shooting to get better with irons.
I’ve had similar results with armscor myself and gave up on it a couple of years ago.

I went with the UltraDot just because a friend who had the same pistol recommended it. I had an issue once with fogging and although they covered it, their response time / customer service wasn't stellar. No issues since.
