My first handgun that I ever bought was a Ruger Blackhawk in .357 Magnum. I later traded it for a S&W Model 19. I wish I had both of them back today.

The first was a Webly Mark IV I think. Found it in my Grandads attic when I was 12. He said if I worked hard that summer I could have it. Spent all my summers in east Texas. Funny to think about today. He worked me so hard I forgot about the gun. That fall he put me back on the bus to California. Found it when I unpacked. I think he gave it to me because he thought the 455.760 ammo was not not available. It wasn't. But .45acp worked well with full moon clips.
Don't recall when or why I sold it but I did. It was not a pretty gun. Well worn and rusty.

In April I broke my wrist 5 days later had steel plates put in. I broke it when I fell and passed out and broke my other hand at the same time.
sounds familiar.
Missed three weeks of work then went back and got fired on July 5th.

July 2nd I passed out again and another trip to the hospital low blood sugar both time I missed my surgery to have a heart recorder put in on the July 3rd and the air conditioning at home went out on July 4th.

July 5th I got fired as I said and in August if the plates came out of my roof my wrist.

VA gave me a 90% disability but I have a claim in trying for a hundred.

To make matters worse I turn 70 this month.
.
I need to find a job this forced retirement after eight years on the job means I have to spend all day with my wife. That's work.

To top it off I have an infected hangnail which hurts more than the broken wrist.

How you doing?

Bryco Model 48 in 380. Never did have the balls to shoot it at a range, never had the foreseen psycho roommate issues.

I sold it after only a few months. I discovered I prefer revolvers and 1911s.
