Some New Revolvers and Henry Lever Gun

Just picked up a Charter Arms 40S&W revolver to go with my 9mm. Also, ordered a Kimber KS5 DASA 357 mag with 2"-barrel 6 rounds w/walnut boot grips. No mor 30 day waiting between pistol buys have my MD collectors. I also placed a pre-order on a Henry tribute to the Single Action Shooting Society (SASS) 357 caliber Big Boy. I also had to purchase the reloading dies, 38/357 bullets, 357 and 38 special cases going down the rabbit hole. My Kahr K40 SST weighs 26 oz the Kimber 357 weighs 23 oz. and the Pit Bulls weigh 22 oz.

Those aren't revolvers....

I know!

Captain Obvious.....
Well… a buddy wanted to dump the CZ SP-01 so he could buy a fishing reel. A local gun shop offered him $500 for it, unfired as it was. He called me and I gave him fair value, being a friend and all. I had my eye on an old Ruger in 45 Colt but I’m already set up to load the 9’s.
The Luger is a “bucket list” gun.
I will take a minute to rant a little. I’m in Delaware for the summer. Because of the liberal woke laws here, I (being a citizen of the great State of Texas) can not take possession of a pistol. They have to be shipped to Texas and wait for my return. :mad:

That is because in Texas you are a citizen, while in Lib land you are a subject.
 
One of my carries is the Kahr CM9, perfect for me. I had but they got away from me three .44 bulldogs over the years and yes I still kick myself when I think about that.
 
My latest handgun purchases.

Charter Arms Professional 3" 357Mag.
Paperweight!!
Still needs to go back to Charter Arms.
Doesn't go bang when you squeeze the trigger.

So Charter Arms figured out a way to eject rimless cases in a revolver without using half moon clips like we do in the Model 25 Smith in 45ACP.
 
Ruger Security Six 357 Mag & Taurus Judge.
I also picked up a Taurus 38SPCL.
(Model 82?)
Age hardened rubber grip. 4" barrel. Lanyard attached at bottom of grip.

These all go bang when loaded and you squeeze the trigger. Lol

The Charter Arms does make a dent in the primer. But doesn't strike enough to have it consistently fire.
Shot mabe 6 rounds out of 60.
Last time it fired, I aimed at the target again and was surprised to see the front sight turned 90°.
