OC'ed at Car show
Family decided to go to the muscle car show in Hatfield today. OCed my GP100.
Walked by two Hatfield LEOs 4 ft. Away, and not a word was said. Got a few looks from people who had NY plates. One guy actually gave me a thumbs up. He then said, 'carrying right out in the open; I appreciate that!'. I gave a thumbs up back and said thank you.
Good day today for the 2nd amendment

You must spread some reputation around before giving it American1776 again.

That was me who gave you the thumbs up. Couldn't miss that big wheel gun you were carrying. Surprised you didn't get more comments.

Re: OC'ed at Car show
Love wheel guns. I normally carry an HK P7, but i still go back to the revolver quite often. I figured since it was a muscle car show, I'd keep things a little more traditional with a six-gun.
Got no other comments the whole day; just a few 'looks'.

Re: OC'ed at Car show
Thanks! I love s&w revolvers too, especially the older ones. This Match Champion balances and handles like a K-FRAME, but has the durability that Ruger is noted for. It weighs a nimble 37.5 ounces, that's only 1 ounce more than a K-FRAME model 10! And it's 3 ounces lighter than an L-frame 686 with 4 inch barrel. I shoot the NUCLEAR 125 gr. JHP from Underwood, which clock an unbelievable 1700 ft/s from a 5 inch barrel. From the Match Champion 4 inch tube, I'd wager they run an honest 1600 and change. It's my carry load.
