    O dont get me wrong i believe it happens!

    Im just more curious on how they had a regular profile barrel (ie not super thick) that had zero bulging. Plus no lead so he was shooting solid copper bullets. I dont know anyone who shoots solid copper except for hunting....well except in special cases like 458 socom. But not in a 233

    Kinda funny on the 357 at the top, they reloaded it and shot more before they realized there was a problem. At least I've never heard of an 8 round revolver anyway.

    The Lefaucheux was a 20 round capacity 7.65mm pinfire revolver known to be used in the civil war. S&W does make an 8 shot .357 however. Models 327 and 627.

    Recommendations for a gun belt? Going to be worn daily usually cc iwb but not always carrying. Looking fior a blet that is nylon (or w/e just not leather)

    Lapg is running 15% off on blackhawk but they seem to have size issues with their belts.

    I have an SOE EDC belt. It's solid and is adjutable from any length in the range because it uses velcro to close.

    It's the low profile, forgot they made 2.


    I think it was $60 when I got it last year, so yea it's not the cheapest lol. I just liked how it's pretty much infinitely adjustable between the two sizes rather than a leather belt that's adjustable in 1 inch increments. A good leather belt is $40 or so, so really it isn't that much more but the added versatility is what sold me on it

    My SOE belt is worth every penny I paid. I have a cobra buckle version in black/black and wear it almost daily off duty

    I can tighten it up for open carry if I'm not in uniform but still on official duty, or can loosen it up for IWB then tighten it down for a perfect fit

    It's super stiff, in fact it sits in a curved position when not in use, and is impossible to roll up and put in a drawer like most regular belts



    SOE is not for those demanding of super duper kiss the customers ass service, and the wait sucks (6-8 weeks), but if you order, wait and forget, don't ask or complain about wait time...it's awesome

    My lowpro edc only took about 2 weeks to get to me, but it's also probably the simplest thing they make so that probably helped

    I don't adjust my belt most days, so I like the cobra buckle better because I can set it where I like (which fits AIWB with a Glock 23) and then just click or unclick it to put it on/take it off, the EDC LoPro has to have the velcro pulled apart to release the belt when worn tightly like I like

    Don't get me wrong, there's plenty of good with the Lo Pro, but it just didn't work for me

    The only times I EVER wear a tucked shirt is at work...so the "tacticool" look doesn't bother me
