That's criminal! You take that thing off the wall and go shoot a beer can or something at least, lol.

Bought my grand daughter a remington 700 youth model 243. Put an old scope I had on it, shot fine. Softball groups at 200 yards. Scope was not real clear. Bought her a new scope. Been fooling with it. Need to shoot to two hundred again. I think with the new scope groups will tighten up a bit.

A Hi-Standard Double-Nine bought new by my dad in 1959. It cost $37.75 plus tax back then. I have the original invoice from the gun shop where he bought it

It’s the revolver I learned to shoot handguns with when I was seven or eight years old. When my dad passed, I inherited it and have been using it as a trap line pistol ever since.

They are good guns, but I don't like that they only hold 6 rounds, and slow to reload. I have this one. I like that its smaller and lighter than the other style....

I like the looks of that little pistol right there ADC

…. Fortunately mine doesn’t do that lol

In 1971 I bought the Hi-Standard Supermatic auto with the completion barrel (top of photo) and didn’t know at the time what I really had bought. Once I figured it out I certainly didn’t want to any longer continue exposing it to the mud & water of a combo line just to kill coyotes! Once I smartened-up I bought a little SS Tarus 94 22LR that would fit in my pocket or vest and I didn’t worry about where I took it! It killed coyotes just as well as the far more valuable Supermatic (5’-15’) and I no longer stressed about drying and & cleaning it everyday!

Ruger Mark II….

an this thread is making me miss owning handguns in Canada. Our government is terrible.

Silencer Central 22k, Titanium.

I pack a Ruger single six that I bought on the cheap several years ago.

No sentimental value to it. Not upset if it gets wet, muddy or bloody..

Just a good ol reliable trap line revolver.

My first trapline handgun was a H&R nickel finish .22 that had terrible timing. Sent it to the factory for repair. They charged me and returned it no better than before so i sold it for a low price. Then i used a Winchester single shot rifle for a year - that got old very fast.

In high school, Dad bought me a new Browning Challenger II which was my first good handgun. I painted the front sight and shot flying rooster pheasants with it.

Then later i added a few different handguns that were used for trapping and coonhunting. A Ruger Mark II stainless target model, a Ruger Single Six with adjustable sights for a change of style, a Ruger SP101 newer 8 shot model, and a couple Ruger Mark IVs for variation. One has a rail under the barrel for a light.

My first was a nickel H&R 650 revolver, loved that gun but it got stolen. Then I used a blued RG German? Revolver, then a nickel 9 shot H&H revolver, don’t remember the model

A couple of references to Arminius and RG revolvers from Germany. These guns had frames made of Zamak which is a zinc alloy used in die casting. Not sure that was a good idea. After the GCA of '68 there was an import requirement of alloy melting points that some of these guns failed.

I have started to use and carrying it all the time now is a Remington single shot model 6 .22 cal. It is ~30 inches total length and has been a great all around trap line gun. It has more range and very accurate.

I bought an H&R six shot .22 with the .22 mag cylinder in 1987 and wore it out. I sent it back to get rebuild in 1992. It started wearing out again so I traded it on Smith and Wesson 617 with 10 shots. It's very accurate. So far it is not wearing out like the H&R did. It's survive being dropped in creeks. frozen, dirt and sand and cleans up really well. I like the rubber grip. Even if my hands are dirty I still can grip it well. I put a 3 CB caps in first. The rest are CCI Low Noise rounds.

that is some classic trapper ingenuity.

I also have the same holster mine is right handed but I carry it cross draw often so that the gun fits between the seat and the door and isn't in the way of the seat belt.

I originally was carrying a Hy-Hunter of Hollywood California , it is a rip off of a Colt New Frontier , imported from a German outfit , not a great trapping gun it was only safe for 5 rounds, load one skip one load 4 more hammer back hammer forward holster
that is how you load in the dark and land on the empty because we also used to have to unload every time we got in the truck.

now I carry a wrangler

the perfect trapping gun would be 10 round , stainless steel or other metal that doesn't rust, fold out crane so fast to load , sub 30 ounces , 4-5 inch barrel with good sights , have good parts availability , not cost too much and have lots of available holsters.

since no one ever made that gun
the single six and the Wrangler a pot metal derivative of the single 6 is a good durable , affordable compromise.

I took the Ruger MKIII out in the rain once thought I dried it off enough and got it oiled up , and a few days later I leared I had not and had to disassemble everything and oil and steel wool everything

the Wrangler I seem to be able to dry out and shoot up with Hornady one shot cleaner and dry lube and not have issues

are these the low noise rounds or are you run
https://www.cci-ammunition.com/rimfire/cci/sub-sonic-hp/6-56.html

these have been my go-to lately , they are still loud from a pistol but less sharp than the high velocity and still work very well.
they also cycle and run like CCI Standard velocity in the 10/22 and MK1,2,3 pistols

or are you running the CCI Quiets ?
