My neck hurts too, but if you tilt your head to the right, you can see a rig like the U.S. Marshal used in Gun Smoke. Remember those first shows, when the revolver would turn toward you, the cylinder would go the next chamber, then ... Blam!

I grew up with guns, speed boats, girls, and airplanes ... so no wonder I am a rich, care free playboy to this day.

Cowboys? Not me. I'd rather chase girls, than cows. But, as a young boy, I had no problem building a tree house high in the fir trees, then hoisting up a cow or two for recreational purposes. This required a hefty set of lineman's climbing spikes and a sturdy rope. Somehow, there was always a thick beef steak or salmon roasting over the coals, often with oysters and clams, crabs and lobsters, and occasional young girls with which to dine ...

Melissa. My first love. At a ridiculously young age. But it was a love i have never experienced after that fire on the vacant lot. Sixty years ago, sure. It was a burn to clear land for a home on Rocky Point. The rest of the memory is dim, except for Melissa's curly brown hair and blue eyes. Our ability to love forms at an early age. And so, it can be shattered, never to form again.

To this day, blue eyes and curly brown hair have me trapped ... and it is now time to bring this story to a logical end.

The End.

After a thick juicy prime cut of beef cooked medium rare, I would carefully extinguish the fire in my tree house, and set the isenglass curtains to protect my treehouse from the heavy rains that frequented western Washington during my childhood.

It's a .454 Casull & 45 Colt, sometimes know casually as the biggest damned handgun in the world.

Or, the King of Pop (guns)

Bang!

Oh my. I really, really shouldn't ask, but what sort of "recreational purpose" would a cow in a treehouse serve?

Seriously, though, all I can see is an S&W here, but I have to be guessing - a model 19 (.357) or some kind of .44 - how the hell am I supposed to know? Excellent photography, though.

Default Here's my .357

Mr. Smith? Meet Mr. Wesson. Never mind, this was way before the Cloud People came from the mountain. I was only detained long enough for the mist to drift away. And the hand cuffs to be removed. Just kidding. Is humor left anywhere in this world?

I snapped this image on a chilly morning northwest of Mt. Shasta while putting fuel in my truck seemed a good idea. I turned, and was stunned, and started scrambling for a new, high tech camera I knew was buried somewhere on the passenger seat.

Short story long, I exposed who knows how many mega pixels (2) of the sun behind Shasta (before sunrise).

This is the one of amazing features of this new generation of digital cameras. I have not moved the setting from "Auto". So, I feel stupid. Via luck, and hands that were not damaged at the time, but I have cameras that require adjustment. But have no film.

I'm pretty sure it's a 629 in .44 Mag, but we'll have to wait for him to confirm.

I never owned a J-Frame until 2004 and that's when I found out what I'd been missing. The pocket autos are gone, replaced with more reliable hardware.


S&W Model 31's, both in .32 S&W Long. Fun shooters.


S&W 432PD, .32 H&R Magnum, six shots.


Snapshot of my 042 and 649. They now wear boot grips.


S&W 15-3: A snubby with a square butt and target sights. Go figure.


One of the last Model 66's - it shoots like a dream too.


Model 19: Too sexy for its holster.

SP-101, my camping/trail/knockabout gun.


Model 25 Snubbie. The front-end view is spectacular.

A couple of pages back I posted my first Colt Snubbie,a 1952 Colt Cobra LW.
Well I found another 1952 Cobra . It is a few serial numbers different ,so I grabbed it .
I hope that they are a breeding pair. {pics of both enclosed} These are really addicting.

Beau-T-ful! IIRC, it was your 66 that inspired me to get those combat grips for mine. Check out posts #14 and 17 of this thread if you haven't already.

Why are Snubbies so attractive and sought after? Maybe 'cuz they are like a good GF. They are short , well built ,and make a hell of a ruckus and can breathe fire in the bedroom at 2:30 am.
