Man-O-Man .... I must fondle that Smith !!!

Fortunately we were in the classroom during the downpour. Got a light rain before lunch and then just windy (practice on moving targets).

I think that you're a real rock star for doing a Gunsite course, Norm !

Bet he makes you wear gloves

I don't blame him !

I don't blame him !

It looked really clean in the GB pictures but what @mcapo needs is a professional photographer to document it. You know, for insurance purposes. I wonder if he knows anyone who could be up to the task?

I like the way that you think ! I've actually served in that capacity ..... having documented Churchmouse's favorite pistols in 2019.

When I see this set (example below) in my Smugmug, I think that I should delete them, as they were never my firearms.
But then, I remember the lunch that day (we were also joined by TriggerTime) , and the camaraderie we shared while photographing mouse's guns .... and I smile, and refuse to delete them.

A S&W 66 is a beautiful piece. Mcapo's is no exception. Both look great.

Well like I always say, contrary to the popular saying it’s not the rain that melts ya, it’s the lightning.

Rifle case two is finished. Just blasted through this one and called it good.

Cutting foam with a crappy electric knife is not for the faint of heart.

Photos are memories. No need to delete if it's not your gun, it's definitely your memory. I love seeing what pops up on my onedrive from that day in past years. Sometimes its something I saw that made me laugh, sometimes it's the kids, sometimes it's something laying in parts that I needed to figure out how to put back together.

Oh no....keep these pictures! They are photographic representations of perfection! In firearms and in image capture!

You might notice the one that has by far and away the highest round count doesn’t have wood grips. Lol

Some guns are for show, and some are for go !

It takes a darn near full cylinder in one of those to exceed one 500 SW. ONE!

The math is a little loose but lets say one 500 grain XTP 500SW is exiting with some 2250 ft pounds of energy. A 158 grain xtp in 357 is at 550 foot pounds of energy.

When I had my 700 PSS threaded last year, it is now to long to fit in the case because of the muzzle brake.

Son of Brutus likes your math !

Good grief! How long is your 700 PSS? Did you install one of Churchmouse's brakes??
