That's a beauty!!

My first real crush on a gun as a boy was that revolver! I had a more standard birds head gripped Uberti's yeas ago I used for CAS but eventually sold it off. I found a New Thunderer a couple years ago but just wasn't in the mood for it at the time. I carried the CCI blazer round with a 200 gr gold dot. Cheap, good shooting ammo that expands wonderfully.

Good deal on that one, they are very cool guns!

Nice! those are easy packin compact guns.

I like the standard grip frame a bit better, but who cares... those are nice compact 45s!

In the interest of full disclosure, I've been known to carry mine in a shoulder holster as my "CCW". I don't feel unarmed... I just have to remember to not call everybody I encounter "podnuh".:-)

Shorty large-bore SA's are comforting CC's....

especially with the 270SAA peeking out of the cylinder. While I don't believe 'intimidation' is a real-world valid CC need -- it must be truly a gravest need to 'present' -- I'd think those big shiny lead discs might have a second-thought effect in a dicey situation.

Nice looking and handy piece, that you got.

I have one of those in 44 Spl, love it!

I have one in .45 Colt as well but with smooth grips. I much prefer the look of the checkering.
