    The Colt .38 ACP. Been in my family for about 100 years.







    It has some "History" that goes with it too. Back between the wars, it was carried and used in the west in a rough little mining and ranching community. Now it resides in my safe as an heirloom.

    Interesting. The original "Taper Lockup/Cone Barrel Bushing". ( :
    A true "Gun Guy" (or gal) should have familiarity and a modicum of proficiency with most all firearms platforms.

    Nice!

    There is a company called Steinel that may load .38 ACP. Also Wisonsin Cartridge Company. I've fired the Wisconsin ammo and it worked great through an Astra.

    Now I reload so I can just buy dies and reload them if I want.

    Definitely will save money on .38 ACP!

    I'd like to have a 1911 but I'd like a lightweight, Commander-size version in .38 Super.

    Edited to add: I forgot all about the Dan Wesson Guardian .38. I thought to buy one awhile back but the batch had sold out. Theyve since made another batch. I missed out on that one, too. I'll get one next time if there is a next time and the price doesn't jump.

    I would prefer a smooth, black trigger face compared to the ridged silver one they use. Also would like a rear sight without the stupid ramp on the front edge. What the hell is the point of that?! It just keeps you from racking the slide on your belt. Prefer a blue/black barrel bushing, too.
