Show me your Wheel gun.

Show me your favorite wheel gun.
Here's the rules.
You must be the owner.
And it cannot be a catalog picture.

Mine is a 1984 Smith and Wesson 686 combat model 357 magnum.

OD, that is one beautiful old Smith!

Are those Herrett's stocks?

tough choice, can out of my wheel guns I would have to say my Ruger Blackhawk 357mag Flattop 3 screw. (Yeah I know its got a scope on it, I bought it that way from a estate along with 7 other handguns, I figure I got about $28 in it, so even though its been drilled for the scope I still made out like a bandit)
2nd choice would be my Colt Trooper 357mag (its so sweet to shoot, and accurate as all get up)
3rd would be my Ruger SP101 357mag
4th Ruger single six .22
5th Charter Arms undercover .38 special
6th well proboly the High standard Sentinel, but I haven't shot that yet

All the pistols in the group pic were bought from a estate and I gave $225 for the lot (I just put my SP101 in there when I took the pic that wasn't included) That Ruger MKI is a sweet .22, shoots like a dream.

I don't own it anymore (sold it fund my first 1911) but my all time favorite wheel gun was, and still is my old S&W 28-2 357mag Highway Patrolman. Man that gun was super sweet, the trigger was even better than my Colt trooper.

Thanks Captain, the stocks are original Lew Sanderson's.
It was a tough choice between this and his 1884 Colt Military SAA.

Kimo,
Thanks amigo.
