Homeboy Killer

[slang]

This was just recently left to me. It's an old Iver Johnson 32 short revolver that gran pappy slang carried in the day. If you remember the original Superman TV series, a very similar pistol is fired in the intro.

Ammo for this is ungodly expensive so I dont fire it but its in good working order.

[slang]

It uses the gate style loading mechanism

[slang]

And, its pretty small.

A Chinese, double barreled, side by side, smoothbore. Both barrels "fire" at the same time. :p

[slang]

Now how the hell am I supposed to compete with that?!

[Undertoad]

Seems obvious: you fight fire with fire.

[slang]

( ashamed I didnt see that coming )

[slang]

Ok, well here's another piece. It's the only Smith and Wesson I own ( until they get their heads out ). This is a 5 shot 357 revolver, stainless. A nice pocket gun because of the lack of an external hammer, nothing to get snagged on.

[xoxoxoBruce]

Hell, I didn't even know it was a competition.

[slang]

This bastard kicks like a mule even with magnaporting because of the small grip, powerful cartridge, and short barrel. And if you're shooting in low light, forget it. The flash will blind everyone in the direct vicinity, so shoot it from inside your pocket or prepare to beat a badguy with it after it blinds him ( might be a good idea to close your eyes as you pull the trigger in low light too )

[slang]

And this is the view from the back showing no external hammer.

Everything gun related is competition but please do not post a pic of your "big gun". This is a family forum.

I got one of those for the wife (thats what I told her at least )a few years back . With .357 it is a BEAST to handle , so I load it with .38+P . Much easyer to handle.

Slang said Sometimes you want a "little" insurance

Nice little pistole' . The only thing I DON'T like about those little blasters is that you have to drop the cylinder to reload while holding the hammer at half cock . I put a .22mag hollow point THRU my thigh with one of those little blasters ( my damn thumb slipped ). So i have a low opinion of them . They are well made and all that just not to safe

Holy cow, slang. I bet you could park a VW in that barrel.

Sometimes you want a "little" insurance, for those late night trips to the 7/11. I call this my "attention getter". It's much louder than you might think because of the barrel length and it being a revolver.

Sure, it's not an action movie bad ass gun, but I like the size.

very nice slang! when i was around 9 or 10 one of my fathers buddies was over at our ranch with us. he whipped out this little .22 mag deringer and i just HAD to shoot it. ear muffs? for this little thing??? yeah, right! my ears have been ringing ever since....or is that the voices?
