    Its not uncommon for me to go thru around 3000 rounds per week and sometimes less depending on the time of the year.

    Do we forget that cops were primarily still using 6 Shot Revolvers well through the mid 80's? It wasn't until after 1986 that most departments then relented and went to autos.
    Capacity wasn't really an issue then... and honestly really it's not even an issue now.

    Hello, all. New here. Old-time gunnie fast approaching the Big Eight-Oh mark. Been at it since a kid. Have and tote Colts, Smiths, Rugers, Kimbers, Kahrs, etc. Have shot a lot of PPC in Olden Times. Work on Smiths and Rugers as a dedicated amateur. Currently EDCing a bobbed Ruger stainless Speed-Six in .357. Live on a working ranch with a GSP that's smarter than I am. Hope to make some friends here and maybe even make a contribution from time to time.

    (Hope I'm doing this right. Couldn't find a NEW POST button so used the REPLY, altho I'm not replying to anything. Also "Listen to the letters" doesn't seem to work.)

    PS... Why am I a "Lurker"? I've registered and all that....)
