Yesterday I sat down with my now 27 year old son and gave him a tutorial on a Ruger single action revolver. How to operate, strip it and clean it. We threw a cooking spray can out back and he hit it 4 out of 6 times. Then I passed it on to him with an old flap leather holster and he grinned from ear to ear. I explained that everyone should have a handgun that is fun and cheap to shoot and useful for small game( he only has two SD autos).
Oh yeah, it is a 5-1/2” Single Six New Model .22 from the early 80s. It was a good time.
