Jeff's hunting days behind him because of changing Wash. State laws...mine because of age & physical limitations. I've started giving my firearms away to select people. |
I like these, now affiliated with Ruger.
I'v been considering the 357 Mag. Have kicked myself for years for selling my Browning B92 in that caliber.
