I have been an owner and lover of shooting sports for a very long time...1958! I have a real love for long range hand gun/s. T/C Contenders, and now my DW mod 15 pistol-pak. I hand load all my long range ammo. I live here in the Blue Grass..Louisville,Ky. Of course, all that long range shooting was mostly Metallic Silhouette and live game after that. I grew up in the Arizona desert, back when a 10 year old could carry a 22 rifle across the handle bars of his bike...without the swat team showing up !

Cheers occasion!

Willy, I will certainly post some photos...soon. It ( my DW Pistol-pak ) is a beautiful thing, it's Blue (Near Perfect) and in great condition, Unfortunately when I bought it the original fitted DW case was not with the gun..so I'm hunting that down now or I'll end up making on, would still prefer an factory case. Oh, and I need to get around to thanking all the guys that sent the tune-up tips. And of course, thank you for nice welcome.

seeya, HotRod.

Hi

I have just joined the forum. I have unfortunately only two DWs and both are semi autos, a Vbob and a Havok. Although on cz site its spelled Havoc, its in fact Havok. 

 

Will try to add some revolvers.

I wanted to show all those interested in seeing it, "My First DW/ My only DW Wesson"....so far anyway. Be back when I can get the images loaded...thanks, HR

Hey Mr. lbruce, well thanks a lot...I love this revolver, the DW revolvers in Blued finish may be the finest Blued handguns I've ever seen...and I've seen scores of Blue revolvers. When i was shooting continuously...at least 3 days week, I always wanted to own one or more but never took time to just go get one. My N frame S&W's and T/C contenders were doing the job nicely. Then I had the chance to shoot DW chambered in .44 and another in .357...well of course I was bitten. So, here my 1st. one. I made a few visits to the EKW site...."Holy Smoke", nice goody's there and I must hook-up with those folks for a new Barrel and Shroud set up...and a nice parts source...cool for certain. Thanks for the thoughts !

seeya,HR

I'll be planting some favorite photo/s soon!  drool

Hello Ole Dog,  here is my first DW, a mod. 15 pistol-pak, Have'n fun getting it dialed in, I shot through 3 of the barrell, tuned up the sights ( open iron sights " ) on those 3, all 3 are easy 10 ring shooters @ 100 yrs. After the cold spell passes, I'll shoot more distance. the pic is on this page.

catch ya later, HR worship
