You obviously do not wear Levi's or Wranglers. That looks more like Carhartt pocket size to me ;^) Nice custom touches.....

I just moved a couple of months ago into a smaller place. needed to weed out my Carhartt stash. I think I had more than 25 pair, ranging in use from work, dress, oil changing and hunting. I work outdoors part of the day. Me, I am a double knee kind of guy

Well Whit...I just got my new mini toy today...it is the Lipsy Bisley 44mag with 3 3/4" barrel...

So if the 480 turns out to be too much for you I would probly be willing to work a trade

Whit, who's the builder?


It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger squeeze.

I love short barrels and Whit it look like you have a tough choice what to blood first!, We know there will be no pipsqeak loads through the .480 whats gonna be the choice for bullet weight, hard cast of course, I would expect nothing less

Jack does nice work and is a nice guy. Since shutting down I've been referring people to him first and Bowen second.

How about the literal term. It would take deep pockets to make that a pocket pistol.

Sorry Eric! Misunderstood. I wear a lot of Carhartts, so indeed I have big pockets -- but they sure aren't deep -- unfortunately!!

Whit, that is really a beauty. I might even could say I am jealous!

\:\)


Must have been a heck of a trade deal.

Are you getting it "new" or ?
