Default I have sooo many revolvers

I just finished doing an inventory of my guns and I didn't even realize it but I have 64 revolvers and many are duplicates!

I even found some that I don't remember buying. Here are just some pics of my favorites:

638 actually, I want the 649, but the only one I found in a shop was selling for $700.

Very nice. You definitely have a serious affliction for which the only cure is more revolvers. Thanks for sharing.

Ever since seeing Magnum Force, I've always wanted a 4" Python.

Magnum Force is my second favorite Dirty Harty movie, behind sudden impact. And that one wins just because of the Auto-mag and the Charles Bronson-esk killing of Rapists.

Colt wheelies are next on my list to collect. I am currently looking for a 45 Colt Anaconda
