Ask away.

Do you reload?

This should answer most of your questions.

OP-May I ask, what is your background with firearms?

 

OLG

 

OLG brings up a good point do you reload?  Reloading makes a difference not only in cost, but in power which equals perceived recoil.  CAS doesn't require high powered loads and most store bought ammo is a lot hotter than CAS reloads.

 

As far as better guns there really aren't too many choices Uberti, Pietta and Ruger being the most common revolvers.  Rifles are generally by model year, (1860 etc.), but read the handbook because some categories require particular guns.

 

Welcome!

A couple I didn't see mentioned were .40 S&W (Lipsey's convertible Vaqueros - some were made as .40 S&W only) and 10mm (Buckeye Sports convertible Blackhawks).

Why no .32's?:huh:

OLG

Because a SAA is way more dangerous in .32-20 than one in Say .44-40, .38 -40, .38 Spl. or .45 Colt ... According to our Stupid Government....

And even more Dangerous is a Iver Johnson in .32 S&W Short   ....

Jabez, I meant no disrespect to the 38/40 its one of my favorites.  Just saying the 32/20 is a little outside of the norm as well.
