I just received the following from a fellow friend.

He's a good one to have as a friend. Sitting on the sideline I see ya both are right y'all just crossed swords enroute!

I now offer my hand in friendship as this friend would not steer me wrong and kowing him I know that you would not either.

Anybody who does not inspect their ammo before loading it into a weapon is dangerous and should be unarmed.

I load and shoot about 5,000 rounds of 44mag per year. On two occasions I got a 41mag by mistake, just one in a cylinder full of 44's. Both times it made a funny sound. Once it split the case. The other one just expanded to fit the chamber. If you shoot a lotfor mixed calibers, it will happen.

My solution was to sell the .41 and everything that went with it.

Accidents happen.

How do you like the SDM? I have a 25-13 5" in .45 LC that came with a hi-viz which works pretty good but just looks wrong.

To me, the SDM looks great on stainless. It makes a world of difference to my old eyes.

Mmm, much classier for a 25. I'd like to try one sometime.

For now, that bright glowing dot works for me.

Did you do the install yourself? How tough was it to mark and drill correctly?
