I'm a middlin' old guy, or feeling that way, anyway.  I finally got interested in shooting about 12 years ago.  Moved though milsurps because that's what I could afford back then.  Trying to work my way to better pieces.

I tend to shoot handguns and .22's, mostly with my kids, because we have a convenient indoor range nearby.  My oldest daughter shoots handguns better than I do - I attribute it to her gymnastics and violin background - strength and control, you know.  So I thought I'd better get a good revolver and practice secretly so I can beat her.

I'd been tangentially aware of Dan Wessons, and they'd always sounded interesting.  I saw a 15-2 on armslist with 4-, 6-, and 8-inch barrels.  So, I got it.  It's good looking, but it's more of a shooter than a collector.

The adventure begins.

Welcome to the dwffrom PA.  You will love shooting your 15-2.  The 22 single action only guns are superb shooters and would make a great gun for your indoor range also.  Give us a range report when you get a chance.

Anything worth doing is worth doing well.
