Thursday I finally felt good enough to go shoot my model 19-4 for the first time. I was shooting some cast loads I made up several years ago for the Ruger Security Six that I used to own. To say I was impressed was an understatement. The first two shots were touching and cut the X. The other four were just to the left in the ten ring. I didn't get pictures because I was shooting with a friend who hasn't fired ànything in 30 years, and I was keeping a close eye on him. I have been weakened a lot by my chemotherapy, but the Smith and my Glock 19 were a joy to shoot. I had forgotten how my LC9s Pro could be pretty stout using the same loads I was shooting from the Glock. I didn't realize I had weakened that much.
After I got too tired to shoot we went into the gun shop an I saw a 6" blue used Smith in .45 Colt. I really wanted to take it home, but not at $799 plus tax. Hopefully when I get through with the chemo my body will get back to normal.
