A New Toy before Christmas!

[Dr. Bob]

Howdy Pards & Pardettes,

I just traded for an nice British Bulldog in 38 S&W.  It is a 6 shot double action and in nice condition.  I plan to use it for the DA side match at the KVC 2 Gun Shoot next May.  I have to get some cases and load up some BP ammo.  Guess that I could use it as a main match revolver in I wanted.   It is headed my way in a brown truck.  Can't wait!   I've asked Joss to add pictures.

[Dr. Bob]

THANKS JOSS!!!!

Cool Beans, Doc!

[Irish Dave]

Very nice, Doc. Will want to see it at Convention.

Dr. Bob,
Nice, now all you need is the proper shoulder holster rig to go with it.

Dr. Bob, that is cool....as you know, I'm a Webley man myself....

A good way to carry it, is either in a shoulder holster as Ottawa suggested, or you can get a left hand holster, to be worn in the small of the back. That would make it easily concealed, but also easily accessible to your RIGHT hand.....

Nice Christmas present!

I'm trying to get this habit under control and you had to go post that picture didn't you!!!!!

Speaking of which, I still need to make a holster for my .450 Adams, and I also need to make one for my 'Avenging Angel'.....

James,

Yeah, I DID!    When ya saw the title of this thread ya knew it wasn't part of a 12 step program!  More guns is ALWAYS GOOD!  

Cammie, OTB, OCB, Irish Dave, SHB,

Thanks!  Haven't decided on leather yet.  I appreciate the good ideas.  Been thinking about a cross draw lined in buckskin.  I'll bring it to the Convention, of course!

Looks very similar to my Belgium copy.  Mine doesn't work well when only loaded with 2 rounds like required on some pocket pistol portions of main stages.  It has a tenancy to over rotate because it is out of balance.  I thought of making up some dummy rounds to fill the empty chambers to counter this problem.

YEEEEEEEEHAAAAA!!!   The brown truck just brought it to me!  The bore is crisp and the DA trigger pull is smooth and not heavy at all.  Couldn't be happier!   Gotta go show Books before the rain starts to freeze on the roads.

Bob just got here.  His new toy is neat.  Now we need some ammo for a trip to the range.

Congrats Bob.

I loaded that caliber for the first time just before the 2005 Nationals.  It a fun little casing, no problem to load.  I bought Starline brass and used an old Lee Load-all kit to do the loading.

Enjoy that little revolver. 

[Will Ketchum]

I load mine using Lee 9mm dies with the appropriate shell holder.  Works fine.
