My 500 S&W is on the way. Was notified this morning that it shipped, really looking forward to it arriving Hello. If you do not mind, let us know how well it carries on the body. I do not want to be a pain or too negative but I kind of like that style of 500. It is like an oversized M29 . I do wonder how well it would be to carry in a belt holster or the like. Thank you for any replies.

I failed miserably. After dinner on New Years Eve, I was perusing on-line offerings, and ran into a Single Six Convertible Hunter, stainless, 7.5" at Guns International. Listing said "Sale ends Dec. 31". There oughta be a law against such nefarious tactics. At my age, I have no inclination to stay up 'til midnight on New Years, and I normally have no problem sleeping thru the fireworks. But at 11:55p I couldn't stand it any longer, got up, and placed an order. Now this required a down-payment via credit card, and balance due upon receipt at LGS. So, did I buy the gun in 2018 when I paid the deposit, or was it not mine until Jan 5 when I took possession? I'm thinking it's my first gun of 2019. That leaves 360 more days of temptation and inevitable caving.

In the current political climate, the only gun that seems to be safe to buy into the future is a revolver or bolt action rifle.

I had FA .475 Linebaugh ' model 757 4 7/8" barrel, in my sights yesterday. For sale on GB. I arranged to meet with seller the next day in Lewiston, ID. Someone sniped it last night with ' buy it now'. Anyone here?

I haven't bought any revolvers yet this year. Prelock S&Ws are coming out of the woodwork but nothing I need or don't already have.
I did buy an 1894 CST and I do have a Rossi 92 .357 mag stainless on layaway but the wheel guns elude me. Late last year I saw a one of those short barrel BFR .44 mags and I went back today to see if they still had it but it was long gone.

I didnt make it thru January and already fell off the wagon. Then again, I wasnt exactly trying to stay on and I was likely yelling “look mom, no hands”. First came a nice Bisley Single Six for me and my daughter. Second was a nice ‘76 model Marlin 336 in 30-30 with a pretty stock. Im thinkin it hasnt ver been fired......? Very dirty with lint, dust, but no fouling, not even copper wash in the barrel. Action is very tight, heck there was even a cob web in the bore.....

Hey, at least you fell off with gusto! I bought a Desert Eagle in .50 AE with a .44 Magnum conversion. Been wanting one since I was around 11 (I'm 37 now).

I thought I was doing well until I talked myself into a new custom...it's part of the cycle.
