Re. the revolver, the only technological advancement that I can see is that now the barrel is screwed into the frame.

A saga of a journey very evocatively written. Your wit sparkles through the prose and brings smiles to the readers' faces. Certainly deserving of the Poster of the Month award.

SS,
If you did look like that, I'd be willing to ask you out on a date. :)

Note to self: Post one good picture, motorcycle or woman(or both!) and the testosterone levels on our forum will rise! :)

Dany, glad you enjoyed reading it. nope..no transfer bar safety. ..so this one will fire too if I drop it from my waist! :D
I can put up pictures if you can specify what you are looking for? Ck's request for posting the other side of the revolver is still pending. Will do that soon.

Winnie, Microflex, thank you for your vote for the PoM award.. :cheers:

Cheers,
SS

Hello SS
First and foremost, I wish to thank you for posting the photos of your bike. Man what a lovely lady! Secondly I wish to thank you for taking the effort to pen down your extremely interesting and if I may add, riveting story of your quest for the revolver in question. Finally, the style of writing was very smooth and extremely fluid, something I haven't come across thus far in the past.
Thank you again and you deserve the Poster of the Month award. :cheers:
Congratulations and looking forward to more sagas of the Man and his Bike.
Regards

Congratulations on the Triumph, The IOF MarkIV and being POM. I for once was unpleasantly not too surprised that a British MC has electrical issues, but was pleasantly relieved to hear of it being an operator error. So let's meet up and celebrate the three highs in your life..

Hvj1, glad to hear you enjoyed reading the post. It was a memorable trip and it felt good penning it down and sharing it here..

Aadhaulya, inspite of choosing and owning the most technically advanced revolver available in this country I am by no stretch of imagination a gun expert. Enthusiast and RKBA supporter,absolutely!

Captain, hope to catch up soon. Raising a toast is long overdue..

Thanks, Vivek!
