    I carried the 4" model 19 as a duty weapon for over 10 years as a Deputy Sheriff in Ohio! And the 2.5" model 19 as my off duty weapon, which i sold so to purchase my wife ( then fiance) an engagement ring, we were married about six month and she brought it back! That was 38 yrs ago! I still them both the 19 and the wife! I am blessed

      Tyler Coleman, this is exactly why I like Hickok45. I truly believe he's one of the few honest people without a personal agenda. He always gives everything the fair an unbiased test. If he likes a certain product for no other reason other than he just prefers it, he tells us that. He doesn't makeup a lie.

      Hehe I kinda had that when I went to the USA, I'm from no-guns allowed Europe.
      Went to a shooting range in PA and held a couple of guns.
      One of em was a .357 revolver (don't remember the make)
      Anyway, I was surprised how small most firearms are (ever as lethal tho)
      But yeah they look alot bigger in video's/movies/games.
      I'm not as tall as Hickok45, (I'm 1,87m) but I do have big hands, in glove size I have size 12 (believe that's xxl)

    Your missfire brought back some memories for me, if you don't mind I'll share mine. After a perticularly grilling two weeks guarding a highest seciruty site in Germany, some 60Kms from the East German border in 1967, we had some fun on the ranges with our personal issue Sterling Sub Machine guns. We fired on our backs, knees, sideways, upside down and even on auto which was strictly forbiden owning to the muzzle shift. then Tada. 5 rounds 25 yards 5 seconds exposure. 1. off 2. off 3. click. Right arm up and right foot back shout "Stoppage !" recharge weapon, 3. off, two rounds on the ground. Refit them in mag. 4. off then as the 5th round went off the target turned. "Cor f****g hell" came from my rear right, someone else went over ... same. We cleared guns. "no live rounds or empty cases in my possession Sir !", then moved forward to see the grouping. Ahem .... 3 rounds in 1.5" group centre. 1 round approx 2.5" north west of centre and a line exactly half the diameter of the 9mm round cutting straight across the taget dead centre, you could clip a round into either side of the target ! Oops. couldn't do that again don't think. That target hung in the Padderborn NAAFI for some years afterwards. As a tank gunner luckily I never experinced a missfire with a 17 ponder 20 or 105mm, thank God. the gunner has to remove the misfire from the gun/turret, then walk it 200 yards up range then ..... run like f**k !

    My first .357 Magnum was a model 19-6 with Pachmayr grip. Sadly it had to go in 1997 due to the pistol ban over here. Loved that gun. Keep the videos coming to bring back the memories.

      @quinch4219 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The United Kingdom after the 1997 Amendment to the Firearms Act. All legally owned pistols and revolvers had to be handed in, compensation was paid and we ended up with Cap & Ball Black Powder revolver and Lever Action carbines in .357 and .,44 Mag. Now we are allowed Long Barrelled Revolvers in .357, 44 Mag, 45 LC which must be 61cm (24") from muzzle to wrist brace/counter weight, and similar Long Barrelled Pistols but only in .22LR with a maximum magazine capacity of 10 rounds.

      I absolutely agree with you, John. You know there had to be some discussion at the Compound about whether or not to include that footage. In the end, though, Hickok and John's honesty, integrity and loyalty to their viewers, won the day! Both Federal and Bud's Gun Shop should be proud to sponsor them!

      Well, everybody knows that Federal Premium is our sponsor, but by the same token, if you've seen all our videos, you know how incredibly rare this is. I've used American Eagle long before we started doing videos, mainly because it's good ammo and I never had issues with it. That's still the case.

I too am not impressed.

      @Joe-rx7ht 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have that same model. My grip is exactly the same. It’s slightly warped. Took it out, tried to bend it in and nothing. All I ended up doing is scratching the finish. And I would hate to call S&W. The three screws for the bottom picatinny rail were out of spec and would not go in. I called S&W customer service and they sent me new ones. But I dreaded talking to the woman that handled my claim over the phone. She had a terrible attitude.
