Highway Patrolman

[SteyrAUG]

Thanks all, I've never had a 28 so I'm pretty stoked. It's got a Hogue monogrip, which I like, but I'll probably put some combats on it if I can find the N frame set I have. Hopefully I'll get a chance to shoot it in the next couple days. I'll get some pics up shortly, albeit cell phone pics as our old MacBook finally gave up the ghost and I've not replaced it. I must say, the action is very smooth on this old girl, better than my old 586 even.

Those old P&Rs have some of the nicest actions of any 20th century firearm. Here's mine.

I have a friend who spent gobs of money on Colt Pythons. He sent one off for an action job and spent more money.

I shot those revolvers and was underwhelmed.

My Highway Patrolman is a much better weapon. Seriously one of the best wheel guns to be had

I like my Python, Colt did have really nice wheel guns, but I don't think many things beat a vintage Smith. And honestly the last thing a Colt Python needs is an action job. Same idiots tune Series 70s until they won't reliably feed ammo. The reason people buy old Smiths and Colts is because they really don't need anything.
