You're a very sarcastic sort, aren't you?

Is that a result of all the government checks and handouts you receive?

I think what will eventually happen is that there will be so much turmoil that the place will undergoe a revolution, giving the Marxists the complete power that they have strived for in that country.

It's a sweet looking revolver isn't it? It was an older model that has recently been introduced to the marketplace, and I'm dying to get one.

The Marxists are already in charge, any semblance of moderation is pure window dressing.

You are correct. Texans do not own all that many guns. If anyone is taking notes, for the record my wife and I, for example, only have about 3.

Is that a M-25 .45 Colt?

I doubt it.

The words "Smith and Wesson" are clearly visible on the barrel.

Sure they are, but it could be a M-25 .45 Colt, which refers to a cartridge, not the manufacturer. The M-25 was made in both .45 ACP and .45 Colt versions.

.45 Colt is sometimes referred to as .45 Long Colt.

Truth is, the image posted is a nickel plated M-29, .44 caliber. (Think Dirty Harry)

Yeah, but where's the fun in reading through an entire thread for rebuttals when I can just jump in with both feet.

OK, you get a nickel too!

I am only telling you this because I just recently figured it out myself and it is quite useful; you can click on "View Replies" below a post and see all the replies that have been made to it.

I've used that button occasionally, but again, where's the fun in that!

On the upside, I bet by now you'll never forget that .45 colt is a caliber as well as a six shooter.
