I've got the 617 and cleaned her up....can't wait until the range opens up (have to wait for the hunters to return, firing is suspended until 1000 )
I am ordering the speed loader from DS-10 (once HE gets back from hunting) and some snap caps from Midway.
I also want to get one of the videos that y'all mentioned, regarding performing a trigger job. I have J, K, and L frames that I will be able to work on, once I get some more info.
I've got time, and was hoping for some input to assist in the decision making. So here is the question....Miculek or AGI?
The Miculek is on DVD (advantage) but is out of stock.
The AGI looks to be more all-encompassing, but does it hit the trigger job aspect as well as Jerry would?
And if Miculek is better, would getting both be advantageous or redundant?
I'm taking my neice to shoot ConTact with me (kinda like IDPA) and then we will play with the 22's (auto and revolver ). I always like to see the guys compete with a 14 year old......steady hand, good eye, and the girls seem to listen better
Hope it gets above 50..makes the shooting easier for her.
