Reader Comments of the Week
“I’ve been carrying my S&W model 60 in an ankle holster for 40 years. Granted, it’s there for back-up. I always carry a primary firearm in an in the pants holster. The good thing about ankle carry is that it’s great for back-up because as long as you are wearing long pants, no one knows you are carrying. The bad thing is that is’s slow on the draw. Although it’s slow on the draw, it’s better than not carrying any type of back-up at all. I’ve also discovered that while sitting in a car, it’s not really a problem to access.”
– DALE, in response to Ankle Carry: Does It Work or Not?
“While not being suited for edc or self defense it’s still an awesome firearm that bring back the days of long ago with its mystery and what it must have felt like to carry and depend on such a weapon for your safety. Beautiful revolver.”
– BRIAN, in response to Review: Taylor’s & Company 1860 Army Snubnose
“I have a 39A that was handed down to me, it is about 48 years old and still looks great and shoots as good as it did when it was new. All the rifles I have is either a Marlin or Henry except my 30-06 and I would not take anything for them.”
– ROGER, in response to Review: Marlin Model 39A
