I just need a truck revolver and one where i can use snake shot if needed.

When I think I may need more, out comes the 15 shot Browning Hi-Power. www.sevenoakstrappingsupplies.com for trap mods and gear The 10 Commandments are not suggestions.

Anything more , then the .45 comes out. Don't need but one round for anything. Personally witnessed myself. Still miss my police issued Model 19. Best darn trigger I've ever squeezed. Thanks guys for all your help. Sarge Getting old is a fatal mistake Always looking for reloading componets I know a beaver or two, because I've seen a beaver or two
