    By the way, I got both guns back in action briefly after getting them back to the work bench. The .22 right away, and the .357 DID have a fired primer preventing the cylinder from moving. The primer was backed out into the recoil shield hanging up the gun. I don't recall Dad every having this problem, even with handloads. I've had the issue a couple of times with magnum loads. Don't know if it's the soft Federal primers or what. I know there's not much clearance or margin of error between the cylinder and recoil shield.

      I had this issue with my 32 long reloads.
      Figured out that I still have to clean the primer chamber and the remaining burn was letting it slide after igniting.
      Lesson we still learn.

    Memories... Lost my dad 46 years ago. I think of him often. He was a broken man. The result of his service in WWII in the Pacific campaign. He endured the bitter combat and indescribable horrors of war. Deaf from shell shock, numbed to killing, hatred for the Japanese. He could never let it go. He hated guns and didn't want anything to do with them. He was never able to interact like a true father should but I understood that. He was always a hero to me and will always be recognized as a member of the Greatest Generation.

      My Dad was a Staff Sargent who also fought in the Pacific. Dad would never talk about any fighting he did in the war although I know he saw much. I think it is telling that he never brought back his rifle or his .45. Truly "The Greatest Generation"

He seemed so much older. Cherish those moments and spend time with your folks. Don’t let silly things in life come between you. I assure you, you’ll regret it if you do. Thanks for the videos Hickok.

We love the old guns and shoot when we can together. I've fallen from a car accident and with sciatic nerve pain in my back and legs with severe pain for nearly two years so I can't do much at all now. It's a sad day for all of us. I try to take them fishing 🎣 to make good memories with them.

    AHHHHHH! The Western Auto Store! I’m the same age as you Hickok45 and how your stories took me back with my Grandpa going to the WA store with squeaky wooden floor boards in a small town in south east Pa. From the farm it was a fun trip and the price of ammo was like the 5 cent Hershey bar! Everyone we knew had some sort of firearm for hunting or protection. We kids brought our rifles to school during hunting season. Even took off a day or two to do so. Sharpened my pencil over the waste can by the teachers desk with my pocket knife. How did we decline to the standards of today??? And so many questions I should have asked when Loves ones were still here? I did a pretty good job of this but wish I’d asked more. Time flies indeed! My Grandpa at 90 when I asked what it was like he said, “The weeks seem like days and the months like weeks”. How true! Indeed we never know when that April 14th may come for each of us. All the more reason to treasure every minuet with those we hold Dear! Kind Thanks and Many Blessings! And Thanks for a Great Ride back to cherished days that warms the heart! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania

      @@savage22bolt32 Going to that old store was a treat with my Grandfather! There’s a pizza shop in that spot today and the old store was torn down. So many great old places were torn down for some steel and concrete place with no character. So those old floors are great memories. We had a hardware store in an old building, squeaky floors and all. They had a wooden barrel of sulfur and we kids would buy some to make gunpowder. The old lady would ask, you’re not going to make bangs with this are ya? It’s for the garden. I think it was 10-15 cents for a paper bag full. We never did make any good powder as much as we tried but we did make a few bangs if we were lucky. Lots of fizzles though and fun to boot. Thanks for your story! DaveyJO

    Wonderful! Memories of your father and his favorite pistol. I'll share one with you. We bought a ranch in central Texas in 1981, and over the years made improvements. My dad bought a used 3rd gen Colt SAA and carried it as a 'snake gun' on the property. Once while we were burning an enormous brushpile, a rattlesnake emerged from the brush and my dad pulled his Colt and fired all five shots at the snake from a few feet away, and missed them all. My mom picked up a hoe and calmly walked over and chopped the snake's head off. My dad passed on June 14, 2020 and I am now the owner of that SAA with stag grips. Thank you, Hickock for the story

    • @hickok45
      @hickok45  Місяць тому +10

      Good memory. In your dad's defense, there's something about shooting a snake that is very difficult, regardless of how easy they make it look in the Wester movies.
      Anybody who doesn't believe this, throw a piece of rope or a stick on the ground and blast away.
      Unless you have it lined up lengthways, your margin of error is very small. Either way, it's about like shooting at a half-dollar lying on the ground, plus, we're not used to the proper sight picture for shooting something so close and downward.
      I encounter the same issue sometimes when I'm trimming tree limbs with a 12 gauge. If the limb is not very high up, it's almost like shooting a rifle at it. Can be a little embarrassing when you miss it entirely. :-)

    Hello Hickok45,
    Your video today was excellent. At 70 years old, I can sincerely relate and appreciate your message. I inherited my grandfather's .25 caliber Colt vest pocket pistol. From the serial number, it was produced in 1917. Unfortunately, I lost my grandfather when I was in the 12th grade of high school. Time is extremely short, and it goes by extremely fast. I watch all of your videos ----- especially the ones that show the days of the wild west and cowboy guns (LOL). That is what we called them when I was a youngster. Your Colt revolvers are absolutely beautiful. I also greatly appreciate your sense of humor --- it is extremely unique.
    Best regards,
    Mike

    Boy-o-boy you said it right , appreciate your folks while they're here 'cause things are never the same once they're gone . I too inherited all of my dad's guns and he had a lot of 'em . A retired L.E.O. with a passion for firearms . The funny thing is the gun he carried most (a S&W .38special mod. 649) , I never liked . After he passed I thought a lot about it and realized that a man with a 30yr career in L.E. must've known something that I didn't . Well , I've been carrying that .38 for the last 16yrs and I really wouldn't want a better CCW . Ol' school guns are sometimes the best guns .

    On a lighter note I remember when we visited my grandparents in the 60's in TN they would take me to the Western Auto to check out the store. For a 10 year old boy it was awesome!

    I'm sorry you lost your dad. I lost my dad in April also. April 4th, was 2 years since I lost him. I've told you before. He was one of the best gunsmiths in the country. 50 plus years. When he first got into gunsmithing, he bought two Colt SAAs. One was a 38 special, and one was a 357. He converted them both to 45 colt. He sent them back to Colt and had the frames color case hardened. They matched perfectly. He was a master. He loved your channel when he had time to watch. Keep the videos coming, brother . PEACE ✌️

    In 1975 my first firearm was the Hawes Marshal in 22lr. You brought back a lot of memories with this one. Glad you were in my neck of the woods here in west Tennessee. Hope you enjoyed going to Final Flight outfitters and of course Dixie Gun Works. I am only less than 10 miles from Dixie and about 14 from Final Flight. Keep up with what you do and may God bless

    Happy Sunday, brother. Pleasant video once again. Brought me memories of my dad as well.
    I learned shooting of pistols and rifles and hunting at a very early age. Then, shotguns as well. Some fishing, too. 😊 Firearms safety was always paramount to all. 😊
    God bless all here.
