I used to have a Ruger Security 6 in 357, 4” barrel (I really, really wish I hadn’t sold that one) until a buddy let me shoot his Taurus Tracker. I immediately tracked (ha) one down in a 4” barrel, and it’s my favorite pistol to shoot. A year or two later a guy needed to sell his 6” Tracker 357 because his wife was having some medical trouble, so I picked it up. A buddy and I agreed after shooting both - we enjoyed shooting the 4” more. More accurate and less felt recoil shooting 357s out of the 4”.

Wel, I went ahead and ordered the Uberti Firearms 1873 Cattleman II New Model, .357 Mag, 4.75", from Bud's Gun Shop. Been hard to find in stock. Hope I like it! Thanks for all the great info fellas.

My wife liked the Taurus Tracker so much we're going Friday to get her a Taurus 856 38sp. She doesn't like semi autos, but when she felt the revolver and just liked the simplicity of the double action she wanted one. This will be her first gun, I'm actually pretty excited because she's never been interested in guns before.

That's cool. My wife took over my little Heritage Arms 22. Where are you finding guns actually in stock?

A forum member put me on to this little gun shop in Van Alstyne. G4G Guns. Big shout out to Choctaw, probably going to make me go broke LOL.

They have a section of "Instore Guns", but they also have a large variety of guns that you can purchase online and have shipped to them.

No CC Fees
Free Shipping (if shipped to them)
No Transfer Fees
Cheapest Prices I've found online on a bunch of guns

The Tracker I bought was $439 same gun at Academy is $579. Just bought the little 856 online for $277, same gun at academy $329

Appreciate the info. I got a little hosed at Bud's with the extra charges.

No problem sir .

Yea a lot of online guns seem to be cheaper but these days after adding tax, 3% cc fees, shipping, and transfer fee you're normally higher than retail.

I used to buy online all the time when they had free shipping and anything out of state was tax free.

Cant do ports so, I'm looking at the Taurus Executive or the one with hammer

First a threaded barrel 9mm semi

If anyone watches Guns And Ammo TV, you will see how far taurus has come becoming a VERY reputable gun manufacturer.

Finally got out to shoot my new revolver. 38's in were real fun to shoot. 357mag rounds were a totally different animal, still fun but the recoil and muzzle blast was much harsher.

Is Taurus really a decent gun manufacturer, these days?

So far, I am liking this 5” S&W.
