    Definitely! Some awesome photographs.

    Wonder if the ringer (GLL) is going to drop one on us. His S & W's AND his photography are tough to beat. His S & W's.......

    Yes, a lot of beautiful pictures/guns. I really like TarHeels "almost noon", among others.

    Probably should have put this one in the other thread, On of my favorite pictures of all time

    Oh MAN! Them thars some REALLY nice revolvers boys! I would post a pic of a Colt Trooper MK III I picked up a while back but it's pristine. My shooting skills are very good and my photography skills................................are NOT!

    Waco and davwingman have especially nice revolvers -- no disrespect, just different strokes for different folks. They are all VERY nice!

    Man, Its going to be hard to choose. Those are all nice revolvers. I'm jealous.

    I have to wonder why you didn’t make this a poll, then you don’t have to go thru and read everyone’s reply and count all the votes and what they voted for.

    I also wonder how many vote on the gun that is in the photo, or that and how well the photo is composed.
    yeah, those are great questions !

    Voting on this thread is like picking out one of the 50 USA beauty pageant gals. Can't you pick one for each day of the week. Something like Sunday chicken dinner, Monday Swedish Meatballs, Tuesday Fish, Wednesday Meatloaf, Thursday Venison Stew, Friday Steak, Saturday Surf & Turf. What if you have multiple personalities, can you vote more than once. It would have been easier if there was an adjective in front of the revolver noun like hunting, target, plinking, HD, classic retro vintage, etc. Presumably because there are so many different functions for the revolver.
    May you hands be warmed on a frosty day.
