Rick is the worst leader I've ever seen. Only a fool would follow him for more than 10 minutes.

my wife has an 870 riot gun and a S&W model 13 3 inch, as she prefers revolvers to auto's.

thanks. I think it had a knuckle bow or chain that was broken and removed. the traces were filed and polished out pretty skillfully. there is a scabbard with this, but it's stored in another container. it had a throat that was half the length of the blade, and the lower half was probably leather, but is missing. I'll post a pic of the fitting when i locate it!

I have sabre that i recently found packed away, i bought it about 10 or 12 years ago and forgot i had it. it's pretty light weight and has a good curve. the blade is sharp and appears to have undergone a bit of use there very shallow inlays that appear to have at one time been filled with gold as you can see that one is still gold filled. the hilt assembly is a bit unusual as you can see and the tang has the markings you see stamped on the upper edge.

I have a couple del tins, early ones that I adore. A Scottish knightly sword was a gift from my mother.
That's a really beautiful one.

I would not buy another python, even though I collect detective specials. The python goes out of time easily and there few smith's that are qualified to work on them. The lockwork is delicate and prone to parts wear and breakage.

Consider a model 13 S&W, 357 fixed sight wheelgun. As they say, everything you need and nothing you don't. Also you can find Police trade in models for a good price.

Bought one of those at Lowe's too, as well as the double bitter hawk model.

i got mine today, I'd have to say it looks as good as my first quality one. i can't find a flaw anywhere on it, no rust, no pits or even scratches. Quite glad i bought it!

It isn't a straight blade, but I've both competed and studied Renaissance fencing. Yself and do prefer straighter blades, and more the rapier than the curved cutter.
