My new toy.

**ca2pa** · October 10th, 2007, 09:00 PM

I was in a gunshop today and was looking at some things, this caught my eye (primarily because of the price, i must admit), its a Taurus model 605 in .357 magnum and for under $200, i thought it was a good deal. I always wanted a revolver and like the power of this caliber, although i havent shot it, i know it must kick like a mule. Will shoot the hell out of it tomorrow and share my thoughts and results.

P.S. This is my very FIRST handgun purchased since moving to this great state of PA! OMG can you believe it took 5 min. for the background check, and after i was done looking at stuff i could walk out the store with my newly purchased handgun!!!! WTF!!! (im originally from CA, so pardon my excitement...LOL)

Very nice. I'd like to eventually pick up a new revolver to use in an ankle holster.

YES SIR! thank you very much to all. I just remembered and have yet another reason why im so f***** happy right now, this lil bad boy (revolver) can feed off of .38 special!!! Its like two guns in one. There isnt anything wrong with feeding two different calibers (although id probably do it at different times) right?
