The 80’s are calling…they want their EDC back.
Back in the dark ages before semi-automatic pistols were boringly reliable right out of the box, and before the herds of Wonder 9's roamed the Earth, the revolver was still king. If you were packing heat back then, you might have found yourself with something like this: .38 Special Llama Martial, 4 inch barrel with adjustable sights.

I used a Poly80 PF9SS olive drab frame and set it up with a sniper gray Suarez slide. I topped that off with a Holosun 507K X2 sight and a set of Ameriglo irons. I added a Shield Arms steel mag release so I could … [Read more...] about Building Out My Mock 43 Everyday Carry Gun
