Nah. It's my new S&W 686 in .357 MAG with a 4" barrel.
Those are
snapcaps in the chambers.
I'll have to stick with the N frame, thank you.

N frame .357s are nice, but too heavy. Now, for a larger
caliber, maybe
not.
Too heavy for what? Concealed carry?

Open carry out in the woods in a holster. About 10 ounces
heavier than a
686, which is also fairly heavy. I would have gone for a 686
with a 3"
barrel, but the one that came up I was offered has the 4"
barrel. Still,
it is lighter than the Ruger GP100 I had and sold.
How many miles do you walk in the woods with a pistol in a
holster? I can't imagine
ten ounces making a difference unless you're putting in about 40
miles a day.


My money is on ZERO...

I bought small luggage carrier to put on our bicycles. When I
mentioned same to my
bicyclist brother, he commented that they added too much weight. I
told him it
weighed only a little over a pound. His reply, "That's a lot of
weight when you're
carrying it from here (Seattle) to Portland in a weekend."

I suppose he was right.



There are some interesting trails we hike in the Shenandoah/Skyline
area. The ones we like are not like walking around a golf course
pulling
a bag of clubs in a cart. Every ounce of weight you carry on your belt
or in your pack matters sometimes. We usually do Old Rag Mountain
twice
a season, starting before dawn. Perhaps you should try it and report
back here.

Yup, you're right. Pushing a golf cart five or six miles on a
relatively (compared to
the Shenandoah Mountains) flat golf course would not be considered
'real' walking to
you heavy hikers!

(You're sounding almost like Luddite!)

I can see why you'd want to carry a .357 revolver on the Old Rag
Mountain hike:

"The Old Rag Mountain hike in the Shenandoah National Park is one of
the most popular
hikes in the mid-Atlantic region. With many spectacular panoramic
views, and one of
the most challenging rock scrambles in the park, this circuit hike
is a favorite of
many hikers. But be prepared for the crowds. This is the only hike
we give a star
rating for solitude."

Gotta be prepared to defend against all those people, eh? This
wouldn't just be a way
to show off to the families and kids, would it?



We do that one in the early spring and late fall, and only occasionally
encounter other hikers, and rarely others with small kids.

Probably not a hike for you, what with all your surgeries and
disabilities.

How's your back? Sore? Red?



D'oh.

Usually, it is my upper legs that get sore from those hikes, but I know
that's not what you mean.

If you'd shed a few pounds, walking would be easier for you.


Hey, he only does it twice a year, starting before dawn for six hour eight mile hike.
He should be OK, as long as he doesn't get run over by kids running their way up the
trail.



There's nothing quite like the lack of reading comprehension skills
among you righties. Indeed, We usually do Old Rag Mountain
twice a season, starting before dawn. Nowhere in that phrase is it
stated or implied that is the only trail hiking we do. Also, as I
stated, you should try it and report back here, or have your survivors
do so.


Harry, I believe that 20 years ago you and some buddies may have done Old Rag
Mountain. I don't believe, having met you, that you could do it now unless you've
really shaped up. As you don't discuss your gym experiences all that much, I doubt
that you have. For the past several years you've let us know when you go on your
stump shootin' trips with your buddies. Never once have you mentioned all this
'hiking' you now claim.

When's the last time you saw me, Herring. Oh, wait, at least 12 years
ago. I've shaped up nicely since then, what with my treadmill,
eliptical, and mountain bike and, unlike you, I haven't had to undergo a
series of surgeries for a disintegrating body.

twice a season, starting before dawn. Nowhere in that phrase is it
stated or implied that is the only trail hiking we do. Also, as I
stated, you should try it and report back here, or have your survivors
do so.


Harry, I believe that 20 years ago you and some buddies may have done
Old Rag
Mountain. I don't believe, having met you, that you could do it now
unless you've
really shaped up. As you don't discuss your gym experiences all that
much, I doubt
that you have. For the past several years you've let us know when you
go on your
stump shootin' trips with your buddies. Never once have you mentioned
all this
'hiking' you now claim.



When's the last time you saw me, Herring. Oh, wait, at least 12 years
ago. I've shaped up nicely since then, what with my treadmill,
eliptical, and mountain bike and, unlike you, I haven't had to undergo a
series of surgeries for a disintegrating body.

As of the time you installed the storm door on your deck, you were still
a porker. When was that? Last year?

Nah. It's my new S&W 686 in .357 MAG with a 4" barrel.
Those are
snapcaps in the chambers.
I'll have to stick with the N frame, thank you.

N frame .357s are nice, but too heavy. Now, for a larger
caliber, maybe
not.
Too heavy for what? Concealed carry?

Open carry out in the woods in a holster. About 10 ounces
heavier than a
686, which is also fairly heavy. I would have gone for a 686
with a 3"
barrel, but the one that came up I was offered has the 4"
barrel. Still,
it is lighter than the Ruger GP100 I had and sold.
How many miles do you walk in the woods with a pistol in a
holster? I can't imagine
ten ounces making a difference unless you're putting in about 40
miles a day.


My money is on ZERO...

I bought small luggage carrier to put on our bicycles. When I
mentioned same to my
bicyclist brother, he commented that they added too much weight. I
told him it
weighed only a little over a pound. His reply, "That's a lot of
weight when you're
carrying it from here (Seattle) to Portland in a weekend."

I suppose he was right.



There are some interesting trails we hike in the Shenandoah/Skyline
area. The ones we like are not like walking around a golf course
pulling
a bag of clubs in a cart. Every ounce of weight you carry on your belt
or in your pack matters sometimes. We usually do Old Rag Mountain
twice
a season, starting before dawn. Perhaps you should try it and report
back here.

Yup, you're right. Pushing a golf cart five or six miles on a
relatively (compared to
the Shenandoah Mountains) flat golf course would not be considered
'real' walking to
you heavy hikers!

(You're sounding almost like Luddite!)

I can see why you'd want to carry a .357 revolver on the Old Rag
Mountain hike:

"The Old Rag Mountain hike in the Shenandoah National Park is one of
the most popular
hikes in the mid-Atlantic region. With many spectacular panoramic
views, and one of
the most challenging rock scrambles in the park, this circuit hike
is a favorite of
many hikers. But be prepared for the crowds. This is the only hike
we give a star
rating for solitude."

Gotta be prepared to defend against all those people, eh? This
wouldn't just be a way
to show off to the families and kids, would it?



We do that one in the early spring and late fall, and only occasionally
encounter other hikers, and rarely others with small kids.

Probably not a hike for you, what with all your surgeries and
disabilities.

How's your back? Sore? Red?



D'oh.

Usually, it is my upper legs that get sore from those hikes, but I know
that's not what you mean.

If you'd shed a few pounds, walking would be easier for you.

Hey, he only does it twice a year, starting before dawn for six hour eight mile hike.
He should be OK, as long as he doesn't get run over by kids running their way up the
trail.



There's nothing quite like the lack of reading comprehension skills
among you righties. Indeed, We usually do Old Rag Mountain
twice a season, starting before dawn. Nowhere in that phrase is it
stated or implied that is the only trail hiking we do. Also, as I
stated, you should try it and report back here, or have your survivors

"Shaped up nicely" The jerk really loves himself, doesn't he?
