    Picked up a Ruger LCR 38, another LGS had them NIB for the LCRx which is the exposed hammer model

    I found this in the used cabinet the day before I rode up to FL Gun Exch, got it for less than the LCRx with holster and a box of Hornaday SD ammo and it has the covered hammer, and a Trijicon night sight.

    Thing was in great shape brought her home, cleaned it up, oiled it and dry fired a 100 times. These make a great little carry light, trigger on Ruger beats the 442 or 642 Smiths

    Nice little piece. Revolvers are very reliable too, just point and pull trigger. Never worry about FTF or FTE like a semi-auto.

    Hickok45 has a nice review on it but said the grip was a bit thick, probably that Hogue grip.

    Picked up a Ruger SR22 Rifle yesterday with a RedDot scope at a the Gun show. Think this is going to be a fun 22 cal to shoot. Has the flip up front and rear sights for it to. Six position telescoping stock.

    The LCRx has the exposed hammer so you can DA or SA the shot, the one Like I have (non x ) is more.

    Does anyone know of a good pellet rifle that will kill rat size varmits? I need to get one and don't think the $40 special at wallmart is any good.

    You need to look a little closer at Walley World. They got a Ruger Blackhawk break barrel pellet rifle.

    My neighbor got his OL one for Christmas.

    I don't know if it's still made but I had a Sheridan 22 caliber pump rifle that would kill a good size dog.

    But when you have somthing like a 45, you don't worry about that as much.
    You hit them and they might just bleed out.
    And its gonna knock them down.

    Santa brought me a Crosman Nitro Venom Dusk for $105 from Amazon, its 22 caliber and I been knocking down some tree rats with it to make a gravy! That sucker will go through a 3/4" sheet of plywood at 25 yards!
