Wow, Howard, 100%, and TIGHT groups on most of those 6-round strings, too! And with a loaner wheelgun! Too good!

Congrats and thanks for sharing!

Wonderful display of shooting, Howard. You get an expert rating from this girl, even if there wasn't an official rating for that course. Love those old Model 10s, too.

I have to say, good job again. I too noted the nice groups.

I have the Model 64 I carried on duty for several years before the department switched over to semi-autos. The 64 is the stainless version of it's venerable older cousin, and I never felt under gunned. I shot ppc service revolver class with it. :D

Thanks for all the kind words everyone! I really enjoyed shooting this course with the Model 10. There is just something about a good revolver that seems right.

As a wheelgun person, really enjoyed the Model 10 workout you did to perfectly qual for the state of AL.
Edward sure has a sharp-looking revolver there....thanks to you both for a great afternoon of excellent shooting!

I know a long-time Chicago police officer, who really liked carrying, and trusted, his duty revolver. He retired last year, and will never let that six-shot get away from him! Talks about it like it is a good friend....

Isn’t it interesting that people who always relied on certain firearms (revolvers, 1911’s, M1’s, M14’s, etc.) never want to part with them, but younger folks who have carried the flat-black & plastic modern day marvels never seem to express the same affinity for their arms?
