There are some beautiful handguns in the world.
S&W’s kit guns.
The Colt Python 6 inch.

No doubt the fat gun does its job.
It’s still ugly.

The performance center revolvers have excellent triggers and timing, approaching the feel of the 30’s vintage Smiths. They are a little different using the post war short action, though.

But ditch those stocks and get Keith Brown to make you a set of custom Roepers or Kersarge.

The 8 shots helps too, as the hand has less travel to index the cylinder, requiring less over all force.

Get some A-Zoom snap caps and start practicing your double action.

Old Ed Mc Givern trick, put a dot of red paint on a full length mirror, back up place either muzzle or sights on it and start pulling. You’ll smooth out and pick up speed very quickly.

327? Don't know that one...

The Raid: Redemption, also known as simply The Raid, is a 2011 Indonesian action film directed by Gareth Evans and starring Iko Uwais as a member of a 20-man Detachment 88 team that must fight its way out of a criminal-infested apartment building after being trapped there by a vicious drug lord. The film made its North American debut at the Toronto Film Festival, and entered a wider release in early 2012. A sequel, The Raid 2, was released in 2014.

The making of the movie shows airsoft guns used as props in the movie. None of the firearms in this movie are real. The ejected shells and flashes were all added digitally.


The following weapons were used in the film The Raid: Redemption:
