Buying a used Revolver
« on: October 14, 2014, 05:24:22 AM »
Ran across this article that covers things to check for when buying a used revolver.

https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B6Fh3F6hufhDMWZiNjBkMWItZDhkNS00MTlhLWE4YzMtOTdmN2YwNmY4NzM2/edit?hl=en_US&pli=1


Some might be interested in page 10, where he's going over some specific things about each manufacturer's guns.    Let's just say, the author does not pull punches.   I was thinking about getting a ported Tracker, just for fun and to work on my rapid fire.   I think I'll just get one of my Smith's ported instead.

 Check everything! And then go buy something else. Sorry, but...QC issues.

 Remember what I said about Taurus? Yeah, well Rossi is the Taurus budget line.
