I understand your sentiments of love toward your weapon...I had so much fun with mine today! (more so than any date I have ever been on LOL) I was really impressed by how easy it was to place my shots! The conditions were less than peaceful...one scenario was done under low light conditions with a buzzer and an armed intruder that you had to take out. You were allowed a number of shots that were to be specifically placed, then reload and fire again. You were on a timer too.
The second scenario was at a restaraunt with innocents between you and the perps. You had to pull from concealed, fire a specific number of rounds at 3 perps, and hit only center mass and head shots. Each shot was counted, if you had an extra head shot and one less at center mass, you were deducted points, which affected your time.
I was very proud of my performance!! (can you tell) :)
My revolver has the black rubber style grips...is that the same as what you are talking about?
I didn't have to go to the link. I knew exactly what it would show. I saw it the first time it was posted FR. Once is enough.
I took you at your word and did not click. Gotta love reading comprehension skills.
I agree re shot placement - the extra inch of barrel (as compared to a snubby) makes a lot of difference.
I think we have different era Bulldogs - IIRC, the company went of business, and was revived a few years ago. Mine is from the first era - it came with a one-piece wooden grip, but the original owner added an aftermarket grip. It's not rubber - closer to foam-rubber.
Congrats on a GOOD day at the range!
Thank you...it was awesome. I took first place in the revolver class...not bad for not shooting but one other time in 20 years!!

She is beautiful!! I love that picture sequence!
Word gets around, even with bears. Apparently this guy's delicious.

Good choice. 
Print this out and save it. It tells you why you are most likely missing the bullseye.
Thank you bad...
...do you think missing 3 times out of 50 is a bad thing? I really enjoyed myself at the self defense session! Most fun I have had in a long time! I saved that target and will print out several before I go back to the range.
I called the victim notification number to the Abilene prison tonight...found out the creep that has inspired all this preparation is coming up for parole this December. Six months before he was suppose to. Gotta call tomorrow and see when his hearing will be, so I can try to stop his release!
Nope, that's actually pretty good. Did they let you fire it single action (thumb the hammer back first) or did you fire double action (pull the trigger to operate the hammer)?
It was all double action. You had to try to be quick...you were timed.
Mic McPhearson (book author many times over) serviced my gun for me. He made the Double action trigger pull 3 pounds instead of the original 6. It felt very comfortable.
Sounds like you are well on your way.
This one I find hard to believe unless the fellow drove the bears off with high caliber gunfire. My impression from a lifetime of nature shows is that Polar Bears consider humans just another food source. In the case of Brown Bears (Grizzlies) most attacks seem to be the result of the bear having young or a food source (salmon or a recent kill) nearby. IIRC they are far more wary of humans than their all-white cousins.

Just found out last night that I have 6 months less to be ready...my attacker is coming up for parole 2 days before Christmas. :(
I hope he doesn't get out...he is a five time felony convict, but they seem to have a revolving door policy in Texas prisons. I have been trying to find online inmate information, but it looks like you have to pay to get that.
Thank you for the target!
That's the one!!!
Party pooper!
