Sedalia Dave Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Personal preference. Just like some people prefer the 3.5" sheriff models over the longer barreled versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragoons and Walkers fit that bill just fine. Touching off 40-50gr of FFg in low light from one of those 2" barrels should be "enlightening ".

Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Using for defense even if you missed, you'd cook the varmint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or at least singe him good. Make him easier for the police to find. Just go through the ER's looking for the guy with the bad burns that smells of sulfur. Seriously, when Ed Masterson was killed, he was shot from such a close range that his clothes did catch on fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warden Callaway Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 I handled this one in the gun shop and talked myself into it. It's a Dixie Gun Works "Yank" 44. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if you hit him the wound would be cauterized almost instantly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
