Stampede, Question (another which would you do..)

BerettaCougar · June 23, 2005, 10:35 AM

Okay I'm not really into revolvers, especially ones with cowboy actions or whatever it's called (I have no idea) I own a very small Taurus 650s.

But yesturday I went to the gun shop to see whats new, I've been saving up for my next gun I saved up about 600 dollars, went in the store cash in pocket looking around, shop keep pulled two Revolvers out and at first I was like "Nah, show me new semiauto's", and I picked one up and wow! I was amazed, felt very good in the hand, finish is gorgeous. but he had two of them, same model same size, same caliber .357mag i beleive. well they were different shades in color, one darker than the other..

Out of these TWO (dont suggest another gun model or maker) which would you pick?

My 2 cents? I like the finish on the top pistol better............
although they are both beautiful.

I just passed on both for a similar type gun, but different. The style, and finish do nothing for my eye. Having said that, you like the feel, so which one are you leaning toward?

BerettaCougar I hate you. Mywifehates you. My bookeeper hates you

I had no clue that Beretta was making the Sheriff style S.A. till I saw your post.
SOOOOO I just had to see one for myself. I did and now well I gonna end up in the doghouse for sure. These are the sweetest pistols I ever handled.
The action is silky SMOOTH. I took a Stampede and compared it to a new Colt SAA that the dealer had. Good lord if you taped over the prancing pony on the Colt you could not tell the difference. Exceptthetrigger is wide on the Stampede. Well that and you can buy THREE Stampedes for the price of the Colt.

Another vote on the top finish although both are very nice. It's called the Marshall

I'd order one in .45LC.
