A new (used) purchase and a return to a hobby I had over 35 years ago. This is a Smith & Wesson Model 25-5 in .45 Colt, a cartridge introduced in 1873 in the Colt Peacemaker. I bounced two Speedotron heads off a white ceiling for lighting.

Re: I get a kick shooting this Cannon!
Nice images of a niece piece. I've photo'd all my collection as I've sold them off, and now and then, go back and look at them all again. Always makes me sorry I sold. But age dictates . . .
Good luck.

Re: I get a kick shooting this Cannon!
Thanks, Zen. I've wanted an "N" frame since seeing "Dirty Harry" decades ago. It's a real good shooter (accurate). I shot Mr. Smith & Wesson's portrait with an 85 mm and some close ups (not posted) with my macro. I sent photos to the previous owner and he has seller's remorse now.

Re: I get a kick shooting this Cannon!
Paul, I bet you do get a kick out of that. I just got my 454 back from Mag-na-port International...WOW, what a difference that makes, and it is beautiful too. Your Model 25 is a gem, it appears to be very slightly "used". Oh, your photos of this beast are very nicely done also
Cheers
