I wouldn’t do it. In the late 70s in Oklahoma it was somewhat common practice among some Law enforcement officers to have their 38 specials converted to 357. A gunsmith would just bore out the 38 special cylinder to accept the longer 357. I was encouraged to have it done, I did it on a model 64 S&W and never felt comfortable with it, sold it with full disclosure. Non magnum cylinders are not tested or designed for magnum loads. Yes I know Elmer Keith invented the 357 by pushing the envelope. YMMV.

Rossi .38 special 3 inch barrel. Have never successfully fired more than one round out of it at a time. Got it like new in box early 2000s, don’t know when it was made. I load up a cylinder, pull the trigger goes bang and the cylinder locks up. A Winchester 190 .22 Jam-O-matic even after I tightened the barrel. The current runner up is a Cobray 45/410 double barrel. At least it shoots, but I kind of hate it. Lots of others in the past.

Fully vaccinated and boosted. I wear a mask when required and I try not to push my luck. I am 100% convinced at this point, if your mind is made up pro or con, no one is going to change it. Best wishes to you all!

They were good shotguns! I had a brand new police model many years ago. Mine is long gone. I think I still have a couple police marked s&w 12g slugs. Anyway you brought back a memory! GLWS

Baldwin shoots two on movie set, accidental misfire???

John Schneider was very clear on what the procedures are supposed to be! Very informative! -

Seems like a rookie mistake to bring live ammo anywhere near a movie set. Did the assistant director just grab a gun without asking her and assume it was safe. -

I remember that one, I believe it was the first episodes of MacGyver. -

It just doesn’t make sense. The gun had to be deliberately fired. I wonder how live ammo got loaded, if that’s what happened? -
https://www.indiewire.com/2021/10/alec-baldwin-fires-gun-kills-cinematographer-wounds-director-on-rust-set-1234673555/ So old west set, some how supposedly gun misfires twice, kills one and wound’s another. I don’t think they know what a misfire is! I know blanks can kill at contact close range. This doesn’t sound like blanks or “misfires”! https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/rust-crewmember-dies-after-prop-gun-misfires-on-set-of-alec-baldwin-film

I have great respect for General Powell, may he Rest In Peace.

I haven’t tried to hunt or fish at Campbell in quite a while. I find the access and procedures for check in to be a pain. I have gotten credentials before but just don’t like the check in process. I am older so I don’t like to deal with the bureaucracy. https://ftcampbell.isportsman.net/

Nice looking rifle! Watch aimsurplus and grafs if the Swiss ammo comes in they usually get it.

I think that’s a great deal! GLWS! I am a left handed shooter, otherwise I would be all in on this. -
Do you have specific milsurps you are interested in?
-
Very sorry for your loss. My condolences to you and your family. Prayers for your healing and recovery.

You have some great .44 revolvers!

Possums have never been a problem for me, I just let them be. Ground hogs and skunks are another story.

Yes, I live trapped a family of wild cats out of my Mom’s backyard. A can of tuna is irresistible to them.

Those are awesome! Very nice accumulation!

Good price on an 30 year old Ruger P-Series
TennesseeCamper replied to tercel89's topic in Show and Tell
Congratulations you got a deal on that one! I had one many years ago! Only P-series I have left is the P95. -
That 6 inch model 19 is perfection! Had one when I was a young man. I foolishly traded it toward a Colt 1911 at the time. Sadly I don’t have either one now. GLWS!
