New revolvers for Me
New revolvers for Me
After reading the posts that NCG posted I thought I would go to the LGS and take a look at all the new toys, Bad Move. I talked myself into buying two new revolvers, ruger 357 Nighthawk and a Uberti 9mm El Patron both with 5 I/2 in barrels. I haven’t got them yet as in Colorado there is a 3 day waiting period! Good move for the Gov. I guess. Anyway looking forward to my new Xmas presents and I won’t be looking all over for the fired cases.

Nice! Can't have too many, right?
Does that 9mm need moon clips, or can you just drop in rounds and go?

Re: New revolvers for Me
Since you quoted me, I sure hope you like them. You will, though. Can't go wrong on either one.
As for the Ruger, I assume you mean Blackhawk, though there is a 357 Redhawk, but the Redhawk is a double action. You'll never wear out or shoot out either one.
The Uberti SAs are wonderful. I'd love to find a 9mm Uberti SA. A single action 9mm is as cheap as it gets to shoot in a centerfire handgun and no moon clips needed in a single action. Be sweet to shoot, too, no issues at all with recoil.
Can't wait to see a range report.
Congrats.

The Uberti 9mm doesn’t use clips, one of the reasons I bought it.
and NCG yes I meant Nighthawk I’m old and can’t type worth a damn. Looking forward to both of them, just waiting for a phone call.
