Well crap, I guess I found this thread a little late. And I don't have any pics handy, but I'll try to add some later. For a quick listing though...
Long guns:
Mossberg 590 Persuader
.30 carbine
.22 bolt Remington
Too many more to list, some antique with obsolete calibers.

Handguns:
S&W 4536 (favorite carry)
Walther PPK/S .380 (alternate carry)
Para-Ordnance P14-45 (with pre-ban mags; a joy to shoot)

I have the Mossberg 500 Persuader - No regrets about selling the 870!
I removed the stock and just have the pistol grip. Need to find a pull pin with a small ring attached to go through where the bolt goes so the stock is an easier "option".

This is my S&W 442 carry gun.
Yes, it's loaded - it's my carry gun, it's never unloaded!





If you look close at the fuzzy photo, you'll see the little hole behind the lock and just above the grip. There is a piece with a small spring you can remove to completely disable the lock. That hole is where the piece pivoted. I didn't trust the stupid thing and found out it can be removed.
There's a good youtube video on how to do it.

I also put a 'reduced power' spring kit in this revolver. Made a big difference. Much easier to shoot and functions smoother.

I wouldn't carry any of my revolvers without the heavy trigger pull! Heavy trigger pull=safety. My Dan Wesson 1911 has a very light trigger pull, but it also has a manual safety. I have some pictures of some of my guns on one of the first few pages.

For many years, I competed with pistol in a league and matches. I know all about light triggers.

This little 38 had a terrible trigger out of the box. Snail snot (oil) was no help. The spring kit didn't bring the trigger pull down a whole lot, but made it smoother. The OEM rebound spring was so strong, I had trouble getting it out. (I've done many spring kits, first time I had a problem)

I completely agree with you about having a heavy trigger pull but it was just too much when new. Couple that with the long trigger pull and I probably couldn't hit the ground with this little gun.

I chose this gun for carry because of the reliability of (S&W) revolvers, size, my bizarre love affair with the 38 special, and I wanted the long trigger pull to help prevent accidental discharges.

Just ordered....Horsehide (The Holster not the handgun)



Crossbreed Holsters > Home

I use a crossbreed supertuck, thing's awesome. You'll love it.

I've been using a CrossBreed Supertuck Deluxe when I carry for the last 2 years or so. Admittedly, I don't carry very often, but when I do, it's barely noticeable to me, and not noticeable at all to others. The first time I wore it I had it on all day and my wife never even had a clue....and my carry gun isn't exactly small. It's a Sigma SW9VE.

I also have an SKS w/ bayonette, and an old .410/.22 over/under that was my great grandpas. I haven't shot either in 10+ years.

My brother just bought me a Beretta .22 neos as a gift for being his best man in his wedding. I think he just picked it up today, I still haven't even seen it.

The next firearm I buy will be either a .38 revolver for my wife (I like those airweights), a home defense shotgun, or a rifle for target shooting.

edit: Oh yeah, and about those clips on the crossbreed supertuck. If you got the metal ones, you're probably going to want to get a set of the kydex ones too. My buddy ordered the same holster about a year after I got mine. He spent the extra $ and got the metal clips (I have the kydex) and they bent on him after the first few uses. If you notice where the cross is cut out, the remaining metal at each end of the horizontal cutout is very thin. This is where the clip tends to bend. My buddy called and they sent him a second set that did the same thing. The third set he got was kydex and he's happy now.

Is that a Stevens Model .22-.410 with a plastic stock?
I have one, it's one of my favorite guns.

I got my airweight after "my old lady" got hers.
Only difference is she ordered different grips from Smith & Wesson......

To be honest with you, I have no idea what model the 410/22 is. Like I mentioned I haven't shot it in a long time (probably over 20 years for that gun). I inherited it when I was probably 10 years old and have only fired it a handful of times. I keep it stored at my dads place, so I can't go look right now or I would.

The crosses are no longer cut-outs...Stamped. Much better design.

Too many to list or take out of the safe. The Berretta is my everyday, stay in the vehicle gun. I have more but I'll have to pry those out of the fingers of the sheriffs office in FLA.

Oh cool! They must have had a lot of complaints about that. It looked cool...just wasn't very functional.
