Revolver

[Coach]

Anyone have the obsolete .45 caliber revolver set up for moon clips laying around that they want to sell cheap?

Define obsolete

Define obsolete

I believe he was being jocular, both to poke gentle fun at people who really believe that revolvers are outdated and to help talk anyone with such a revolver into parting with it.

Define cheap.

Gotcha. I was thinking Colt.

Not exactly; have one but it is not that old and it is not going anywhere. Jim.

The six rounders are obsolete in USPSA because everyone changed over to an 8 rounder and became a GM as a result. Looking to make a purchase but it must moon clip ready.

Since the six rounders are obsolete they should have bargain basement pricing.

 

[warthog]

Should this be here or in WTB?

There are a few 9mm revolvers that use moon clips in case that would do. I have a couple and I think that there are a few still being made so you should be able to find one of those.

Translation to rhino-speak:

Amish guns are now obsolete in USPSA because everyone switched to Mennonite guns.

Not many non USPSA/IDA types there.

Coach, is this going to be your first moon clip revolver? And is it for competition?

If it turns out to be moon clip that is fine. If not ok. No it is not going to be for competition. The purpose will be more novelty and utilitarian in use. Plus this is a back burner issue. Just testing the waters to see what is available. Seems quiet on the obsolete comp gun market.

I need to buy some extra moon clips for my Redhawk.

You need a Schofield.

I actually would go that way. I can see benefits. Too bad that design never really caught on in this country.

When we get even older, we should do the cowboy actions/SASS game.

However, I am dismayed that the number of sheep who must give their lives for my fluffy sheepskin chaps. WAIT! Are we still talking about shooting??

You do realize that a 6 shooter would require more frequent reloads?

(CO would probably not be dieing out already if they had made it 6 or 8 rounds)
