Nice, nice, nice, that Old Army just makes me drool, I might need one of those !!  It looks so much nicer than in the ads, what a brute !

I also have the .22 mag cylinder for the Single Six and it's a lot of fun to shoot but pretty costly.  I read somewhere that the .22 Mag bullet diameter is a skosh smaller (or larger ?) than .22 LR.  A quick ten second squint on the internet comes up with disputing assertions, LOL.  At any rate, the Single Six is just about the most outright FUN firearm that I've ever owned !  It's the only handgun I own with a professional trigger job + target sights.

This is the Ruger LCR mentioned in a previous post.  Mine is in .38 +P and I don't know how anyone can tolerate the .357 Mag version !  This has the Crimson Trace laser sight and I've never tried the stock Ruger grip which is said to be very recoil-effective.

   

You're right, I'm a Ruger-kind-of-guy and your Mark III bull barrel is exactly what I was looking for in a target .22 (which the Single Six is not, despite nice trigger and sights).  But, completely  by accident, I encountered this little High Standard for $75 (mid 'eighties price).  It has a tendency to smokestack occasionally but dang if it isn't a tack-driver - definitely most accurate handgun I've ever owned and the cheapest !  I've always loved the shape of the barrel and the front sight - the grip is very accommodating too.

   

But just to show that I'm not prejudiced, this is my Grandfather's 1928 S & W .32-20, the next most fun thing to the Single Six.  Cheap to shoot although because the case is bottle-necked (and very thin) it's common to lose a case out of every hundred.  Last time Starline did a run of .32-20 brass, I bought 500 and those will last longer than I will !  The S & W has a set of pseudo-ivory grips which look pretty cool with the nickel plating but also a little ostentatious at the range.

The revolver doesn't look as nice as the photo makes it out, there are dings and the plating is worn from the muzzle as a result of holstering.  Grand-dad was a deputy in East Tennessee and he was a lefty; I have his left-handed holster.  This seems an odd thing to me since, up until fairly recent years, I don't recall ever seeing a left-handed holster on a law person.  (Maybe I'm wrong, the memory is not very trustworthy.)

   

And last but by no means least, 1953 Colt Government Model, the photo doesn't do it justice, finish is like a mirror !  I have two .45 Colts, the other being a 1918 M1911 (not 1911A1) currently on load to a friend.

   

Thanks for those photos and especially the Old Army, I truly admire the looks of that thing, it's a monster !
