Gungadin Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 You pull your double action semiautomatic pistol and....thumb the hammer...but don't take off the safety. BTW the hammer isn't easily thumb-able. Houston we have a problem. 2 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward R S Canby, SASS#59971 Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 You shoot a modern, action handgun match with a revolver. You load six rounds but reload after firing five. (Yes, I've done it.) 4 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pb Mark Posted August 31 Share Posted August 31 (edited) You load one, skip one, then load four in your SAA carry gun, stick it in the IWB holster and head into town without thinking twice about it. Nope, personally don't carry that but just seems like I gotta carry a revolver instead of a plastic fantastic and thumb the hammer when practicing.

Pb Mark Posted September 1 Share Posted September 1 Maybe not a long-term salty SASS member yet, but after first responding, then thinking about this thread.... went downstairs, tore my SP101 apart and bobbed the hammer. No more thumb cocking the cch for me anymore!

Regards Gateway Kid My wife gets mad at me if I go to the gunshow and DON'T buy anything. I joined sass so she joined too. Her or my daughter either one have shot a match. They're Tennessee Whiskey and Rowdy Riley. Wife figures since I'm a life member SASS will go broke if they don't renew. Sure she has her faults like making me buy guns, cooking spaghetti, chopping firewood, and cutting the grass, but I love her anyway. 6 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
