    This is the Super .38 I'd love to own;

    I'd overlooked this thread before. I really like reading about the .38 Super and Colt brand guns.

    Well guys as of last Thursday I am now at 39,700 rounds fired. I only have about 500 rounds left and am low on money. So I guess it won't be until December before I reach the 40,000 mark.

    Excellent! Call Colt and see if they want to turn you and your gun into an ad or something; could finance more shooting!
    As we used to teach in the spook business, carry a 25 if it makes you feel good, but do not ever load it. If you load it you may shoot it. If you shoot it you may hit somebody, and if you hit somebody - and he finds out about it - he may be very angry with you. -- Jeff Cooper

    Congrats on soon reaching 40,000. That's quite a milestone, but not unusual for a Colt.
