renegadecow Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 There are jet loaders made specifically for the Win Gun revolvers which might be more reasonable for you as they already come with a set of shells. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dagonet Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 A picture of the future new shiny thing home to be. Â It's a job lot of jet loaders and pouches RC so if they fitted i could keep what i want and sell some on. Just curious if anyone has used the make of Safariland jet loaders in there Dan Wessons and to check the size. Â I am taking a gamble that most 6 shot .357/38special cylinders are close enough as there is only a few variations which might be to do with fitting around cylinder latchs and grips.

I checked: a Dan Wesson cartridge is a little smaller than a .38Spl round. A .38Spl round fits in a Dan Wesson speedloader without problems. Not sure how the tolerances in RS speedloaders are.

Dagonet Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 Thanks Mike, heard from someone else as well who tried a dummy .357 and .38 special in the ASG Wesson loader, both fit and function but he has never tried real speed loaders. It looks positive, sort of, might have a punt on it as i really want the pouches in the job lot. Going about this backwards really, had the holster for years anyway, now getting the extras before i even have the pistol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SpankyTheDolphin Posted October 21, 2012 Report Share Posted October 21, 2012 Took me forever to find one, but it's my favorite gun now. Marushin SAA Colt Peacemaker. Came with 6 extra shells too. Knife is a 12" Damascus steel clip point bowie knife. Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fraggle Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 (edited) The amount of revolver porn in this thread is simply ludicrous.  I've recently returned to Airsoft after quite a few years away (my toys were chucked out of the cot and then quickly sold prior to the VCRA nonsense). There's 2 revolvers I regret selling - one was my Tanaka fast draw special - Tanaka's are pretty much useless unless they're an SAA accuracy/consitency wise but dammit they look gorgeous. The other was my full metal Tanaka M629 4 inch. Again usless distance wise but lethal at a few metres. Actually there's a third - my Tanaka M29. Again useless at distance but it felt great to hold and was a beast in CQB.  My favourite airsoft gun of all time though is the Marushin Super Redhawk - I'm currently on my second and about to order my third (in case anything goes wrong with it). The latest one is the X Cartridge (I'm making a massive assumption here that all that is changed is the design of the cartridge and that my old ones will work). I use Mulberry Field carts - look lovely (with .44 mag markings) and give extra power due (I guess) to the higher quality finish and seals. Average chrono went up from 340 to 348 (with 0.45 8mm's) with these beauties.  I've skirmished with this so much over the years - my first was killed by me using the double action - so I only use it single action - and although I can no longer get the 0.45 8mm's - I've found the 0.40's work even better. 0.34's really aren't up to it. This is with propane and plenty of silicon lube. Its basically a pocket sniper rifle and increibley consistent when you get the hop set.  My current loadout is my ICS Sig 551, beloved Western Arms S&W 1911 (SWC ver 2 with a pair of mags) and my Redhawk.  The amount of times I've dropped everything and gone out with the Redhawk - well I've lost count. I love using it - it means I can go light, it punches through the undergrowth like you wouldn't believe and the challenge and joy of using this with good field craft is incredible.  Anyway here we go Mulberry Field cart (with discontinued 0.45)     My current 'hawk. Just as is. I use a VFC "fake" distraction device to carry extra propane when going solo with her. I get about 24 shots per charge.  The VFC gas carrier sits in the grenade pouch of a Gorod OMON BDU with a 12 guage BFG in the other one.       Camera Canon EOS 7D  Focal Length 24mm  Aperture f/4  Exposure 1/60s  ISO 400    Came   HKS speedloaders/pouches. These sit on belt next to the holster. I'll dump then spent shells into one of the small mag pouches in the OMON vest.  When I get a quiet few minutes I'll reload the shells in the speedloader using my BFG priming rod. Then I'm good for a reload and more Redhawking.       Camera Canon EOS 7D  Focal Length 28mm  Aperture f/4  Exposure 1/60s  ISO 400    Camera     And this is my Bianchi Cyclone. Probably cost more than the gun. Incredible piece of kit - I oil it regularly. Stained, battered but wow.  Allow you keep the Redhawk safely cocked (the snap in goes seamlessly between the hammer and body).       Camera Canon EOS 7D  Focal Length 24mm  Aperture f/4  Exposure 1/60s  ISO 400    Came   I'll be putting up a full retrospective soon on my new website of this "classic" - along with a comparison with the X Cartridge version (which I hope looks like the only difference is carts). Amazing piece of kit if you it double action as a target piece. It was a feared legend at Stirling, my KGB days (cheers for stealing my review without asking guys - colour me disappointed) and now at CAA.  I'll be posting up my full metal two tone (silver/black) Tanaka cavalry SAA in the next fews days.  Keep the revolver filth coming all Edited November 18, 2012 by Fraggle Quote Link to post Share on other sites
renegadecow Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Can't remember where I read it and who said it, but on the 8mm .44 line you can chamber the new X Cartridges in the old system, but not vice versa. Also Vanaras (only at RSOV it seems) makes inexpensive .45g 8mm that fly pretty well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Also Vanaras (only at RSOV it seems) makes inexpensive .45g 8mm that fly pretty well. Â While I haven't done it myself, it would make sense: the old shells have a step in them that's narrower than the new 'bullet' shaped X-cart front end Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fraggle Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I'd agree with that from what I can see - so I'll be ordering a spare two sets of shells for the X-Cartridge model. I really want a spare for (if) my skirmish piece bites the dust as I couldn't go out without one. Ill confirm for sure when its here. I'm wondering why the change was made - aside from cosmetic ? The aftermarket Mulberry Field shells offer a slight increase in FPS - so maybe these are more efficient. Will certainly be interesting to get hands on and see what any other changes maybe.

renegadecow Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 The X Cartridge .44mag (6 & 8mm), .45 Long Colt, .38spl (6mm) have the bb sit right at the tip of the bullet whereas the old versions (and X Cartridge .38spl 8mm) have them at the middle. This lends to better overall accuracy as the exiting bb hasn't accelerated much yet while making the jump through the forcing cone where it may come into contact with adding side spin.

Fraggle Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 Taken far too long to get this up. Full metal two tone Tanaka Cavalry SAA, ebony (yes, ebony) colt grips, CAW metal outer barrel & hopeless tight inner fitted.  There's a little wear on the grip - I actively skirmished with her - these days she's just for sleeping with when the wife's away. I love revolvers - but I'd say this is one of the best "holding" weapons I've had. It feels perfect.      Camera Canon PowerShot S100  Focal Length 5.2mm  Aperture f/2  Exposure 1s  ISO 200   Quote Link to post Share on other sites
