Self Ignored by Vista
Over the past few years I've seen the idea floated in some gun rags about carrying a single action revolver for defense. There was even an article about the Gunsite training for defensive use of one.
Lately I've seen a couple of articles in the gun rags about Cimarron's Sheriff Model as conceald carry. At least that one has the ejector rod instead of the original Colt Sheriff's Model that you had to poke out the empties with a piece of wood or something.
There are much better ones to carry, but I've been shooting single actions since I was about 5, so I don't feel exactly unarmed with one. I know how to use the support hand thumb to thumb back the hammer and don't feel too stressed just to use the firing hand thumb. On rare occasions I'll stick my old 1st Gen. Colt SAA .45 in my belt when I run to town.
Anyone else entertain the idea to carry one at times like that?
