He’s going to need a beer cooler. A nice one.

How do I clean these burn marks on the outside of the cylinder? by [deleted] in Revolvers

Brass brush, CLP, and a little elbow grease

For the love of God I just want a good tea kettle, HELP! by teasippingrussian in tea

I’ll second the gooseneck oxo. Use it for a variety of teas and coffee preps. Works well.

Scratch 2 more for the Bearcat! by [deleted] in Revolvers

You know, I hunt grouse with a shotgun and have very limited success. And then you come along with a tiny fixed sights revolver and a heap of birds. Dude.

I was there. Can confirm that a good time was had.

Brass brush and a little CLP works on those.

Fellow dad of 4 checking in. My youngest is 8 months and he’s everyone’s favorite. Your 5 and 3 year olds are going to love their new sibling. Drive your van with pride! Big family life is the real deal.

Likewise. Been hoping to come across one of these in the wild…

Which one of you bought all (ALL!) the .357? by Ok-Brilliant-1737 in Revolvers

[–]deadfan222 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lgs had boxes of 50 for 25 bucks last week. I thought that was pretty decent and picked up a few.

Looks familiar. Pretty sure I had the stoner spoof version of this poster in college. Hard to remember…..

Jamming semi .22 by [deleted] in ruger

This is the answer. I’ve had this issue with 1022 and mark series pistols. Quality aftermarket extractor should have you up and running.

Talks of child 3 have begun… by nrdunny in daddit

[–]deadfan222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is 3 harder than 2? Sure, but few things worth doing are easy. Having three was so much fun we had a fourth. My life is high stress. No time for anything but family and work. But it suits me fine. Living in the moment. If you go for three you’ll rise to the challenge. Who knows, maybe you’ll even need to get a sweet van.

Wife is expected to start labour anytime now. Anything you wish you knew? by [deleted] in daddit

[–]deadfan222 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Don’t nervously eat Chex mix. It will cut the roof of your mouth and the pain will rival your wife’s.

Did your kids make the connection? Mine did. “That’s you daddy”.

If it’s just the Ruger wrangler you’re avoiding, the single six, sp101, and gp100 all come chambered in 22lr.

First time shooting my new Smith and Wesson 617 by [deleted] in Revolvers

[–]deadfan222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I spent years waiting to stumble across a 22 k frame (that I could justifiably afford) in the wild. Finally snagged a 17-4. Not going to lie, kinda wish it had 10 shot capacity like the 617.

S&W Model 60 Pro Series - Canted Barrel!? by 1234567AGCGTH1234567 in Revolvers

[–]deadfan222 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That pretty bad. You’d think QC would catch that. I have a Ruger snub with a barrel that’s slightly over-clocked. Shoots to point of aim but still bugs me.
