Quote HistoryQuoted: Is the OP saying that he would have a Model 29 rechambered for .357 Magnum but replacing the cylinder and barrel, essentially creating a Model 27? I feel like I am missing something here. May be a reference I missed. Interestingly, one of my relatives has a Model 28 that was converted to a ersatz 1950 target with a 45ACP cylinder and barrel. So, I guess a 29 in .357 isn't really a big leap. |

P7 It's specifically designed to be a fast-draw pistol and to get the first round on the other guy faster than he does to you. Yet be safe to carry loaded 24/7 - even if your shirt gets tucked into your holster while holstering.

There's a difference between a street gunfight,
a showdown (also called a walkdown) and the traditional duel. The duel has rules and if weapon of choice are pistols, both parties use the same type pistol loaded with agreed upon # shots and dstance. This is pre-arranged by the desigated "seconds" representing each challenger's best interests. If you chose the G18 that is also what you'll be facing. |

Assuming modern means any smokeless powder cartridge pistol, and not actually current production.
dueling usually has both participants with matched weapons. If I am picking, I'll choose a Nagant revolver. Why in the world would I choose such a bad gun? Because I am familiar with it's absurdly heavy double action trigger and poor sights. My opponent almost certainly would not. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Shoot before he know the contest has started? correct. the other person involved in the duel is just as deadly. be the winner. with the quickness. my great-grandmother was born in Indian Territory in SE OK. she witnessed many, Gunfights and supposed duels. none were fair.. they were basically ambushes when one person had their hands full or were doing something that had their attention. smart-effective. in all honesty. a duel should be fought with 2 T/C contenders. (357 Magnum)- open sights. both men given 2 rounds. ( one for the Coup De Grace) 2 men enter. 1 man leaves |

Duels require social consequences to force a meeting. In this day and age there are no such social pressures. Angry guy says, "I demand satisfaction!"  Regular guy says, "Yeah, whatever buddy, F.O..."  But I suppose if you had two angry guys... |
