    You'all talked me into it. I was able to change the order so I am getting the 6" barrel. Now to wait about 14 days for it to arrive. At least it is not 6 months like when I ordered my Garand from CMP!

    Have you heard about the new corduroy pillows? They're making head lines!

    In that case I should have reminded you that the seven round version costs about the same.

    Unfortunately, that option was not available to me. I saw it on line, but I am not too disappointed to not get it.

    I wouldn't be disapointed either. You have one sweet handgun on the way.

    My next dilemma would be G-10 vs wood grips. You might like VZ grips:https://vzgrips.com/gun-grips/smith-wesson/k-l-frame

    Those are pretty cool, but what is G10. I like the grips that Richard posted. Real wood looks best. I will have to shop around. I also have a friend who does a lot of wood working, I am going to have to see if he could make me a nice set of grips to replace the rubber ones that will come on the gun.

    I got a call from the Exchange gun counter and I was told the gun should be in next week as the supplier had a couple in stock. Getting pretty excited.

    We found out what "dealing" with progressive lefties is all about. Our side gives up something, they give up nothing and the progressives come back in a month or a year and want us to give up more... rinse and repeat...

    Picked it up today! I will post pictures in sometime this weekend. I tried to ease my wife into the size of it because I knew she would look at it and think I had bought a hand cannon. Turns out I was right! That 6" barrel makes the gun look huge, but it is going to really help recoil. Now to get some ammo and take it to the range.

    Nice!

    Just remind your wife of how much recoil that extra weight is going to soak up.

    Also, I must have the gun shining or something to be thinking about your new revolver the day you pick it up.

    Maybe you are a gun-whisperer. Maybe you should whisper about another new gun and see if I pick it up as well!

    Good idea!

    But first, I'll whisper you up some ammo: http://www.sgammo.com/product/357-ma...n-htp-ammo-rtp

    Shit, out of stock. Try this instead: http://ammunitionstore.com/products/...round-box.html

    Or this, if you don't mind an even lighter (and faster) bullet: http://ammunitionstore.com/products/...ound-case.html
