Re: looking for some opinions on a security six

I would imagine that if the "kinda beat" was cosmetic like most PD guns it would be OK.
Still think of it as a 250-275 gun though.

Re: Dry Firing a S&W 44 magnum

As a general rule, if the revolver uses a transfer bar for the firing pin it is safe to dry fire.

I didn't realize that I was so ambiguous, I should have said the CZ is probably the 2nd most copied semi-auto design after the Gov't Model.

Re: CZ pistols

If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery the CZ75 should rate right behind the COLT Gov't model.

Re: .357 for deer? Need advice.

You are used to bow hunting so; keep the distances and techniques the same and use heavy hunting bullets (180gr if they will chamber in your chosen pistol). Personally I would go with the S&W 686+.
