I admire his optimism, the 980's and all of the other long barrelled revolvers from Taurus have been discontinued....
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

These LBP's seem interesting, but for those of us who prefer the semi auto look, is there anything on the market other than 1911 clones?

It's not the pace of life that concerns me, it's the sudden stop at the end!

Has anyone got their hands on one of these yet? I notice that the price is going up nearly every week.

Buckmark is best bet for lbp in my opinion.

i went to local shop for some primers i think it was... came out with ruger super redhawk mint unmodified condition lol.

really must learn some self control.

i love that lbr more than any other gun. I have to be honest and say im not that good with it. But always smile no matter what the score.
