Default Bad Santa!! I bought another 22 revolver 2 days after Christmas.

I saw this 22 8-shot magnum revolver and it' had such a nice finish to it,I then pictured myself at the range shooting it and one thing lead to another and now it will be here in about a week or so at my FFL pickup.Maybe next time this happends, I'll try to resist and get a different caliber other than 22.

Taurus/ Model -941 22 Magnum Bright stainless.I figured if it's holstered and I was hiking around, it won't rub the finish off over the years like I've seen some blued guns.Today, I saw some CCI maxi-mags.I was wondering how those would fire,they will have to wait I'm low on gun funds now.

if its stainless it doesnt have a finish, its simply the bare metal thats been polished and will only scuff up with use. if its nickeled steel it will eventually flake. As for a shooter/beater/user firearm, you really cant beat a stainless one, they are near indestructible and hard to make look ugly short of taking a hatchet to them...

Nice Roscoe...P-40. I did the nasty also day before and the day after Santa. I just like to make sure I get something I want I guess. Both were 22's. One was the SW 22a and the other was a SS Taurus 94 4". I have a bunch of 22's and you can never have enough. Just look in the wifes closet and see all the shoes. Bet you have more than one screwdriver and wrench also. Especially these days with the prices of centerfire ammo going through the roof.....22's are just what the doc ordered. Enjoy!
