#Top-Break

I’ve been making some progress in reviewing my Harrington & Richardson Top Break Revolver, and I hope to bring that review to you in the coming weeks on TFB’s Wheelgun Wednesday. However, part of my review really has me thinking about how the next, future top break revolver should be designed since the topic occasionally gets brought up. Claims are often made that modern metallurgy and engineering are up to the task of this mythical future top break revolver, but it seems that we should help round out what exactly we’re looking for.

A couple weeks ago, we took a look at Rudukai13’s “Apache Pug” knuckleduster revolver. Well, he was also been working on a modernized Schofield revolver design that he’s now completed and agreed to share with us on TFB’s Wheelgun Wednesday. I should note that Rudukai based this project around his reproduction Schofield top break revolver, a Uberti Hardin, which is based on Smith & Wesson’s Model 3. Despite not being an original Schofield, the Uberti Hardin reproduction commands its own special price of $1,699, so Rudukai’s desire to modernize, or desecrate it, should show his dedication to making his firearms work the way he wants them to. He also admits that he’s willing to rustle the feathers of purists at the same time. Let’s see how far the desecration of his top-broke revolver goes.

Thanks for joining us on another Wheelgun Wednesday on TFB, where we try to cover all things revolvers. This week, we’ll take a quick look at the two revolvers I scored from a local gun auction, a Harrington & Richardson Auto Ejecting .32 S&W, and a Smith & Wesson 1917. I’m still quite stoked that I landed these historic firearms, even if it means that I’ll be widening my caliber footprint … again.

Welcome back to another edition of the  TFB Round Table sponsored by  Ammunition To Go! For those who are first joining us, this is a multi-part series where TFB discusses the characteristics of great ammunition for specific applications. This could vary from big game hunting, plinking, precision rifle matches, small game hunting, or even pistol competitions. Chances are there is someone here at TFB who can offer you advice on buying the right round for your task at hand. This week I am back on TFB Round Table to discuss and recommend a cartridge that is obscure but also still available today in the firearms industry. The cartridge in question is that of 38 Smith & Wesson. Do you have an old British service or Colt police revolver chambered in this itty bitty lead tipped cartridge? Are you finding yourself pondering why it’s not chambered anymore? Stay tuned! Let’s dive right into the old school 38 S&W and some  ammunition options and information to bring your old gat back to the range!

This week I’m at the helm on  TFB Round Table to discuss and recommend a  cartridge that has been long phased out of the firearms industry. The  cartridge in question is that of the .44 S&W Russian. Do you have an old revolver chambered in this comfortable target round? Are you finding yourself pondering the reason behind Russia being involved? Stay tuned! Let’s dive right into the .44 Russian caliber and some ammunition options to bring your old gat back to the range!
