For a while now, we have promised the Site Supporters that we would be PIF'ing something cool just for them. Without further ado...

PIF - Eibar .38 Special Revolver

What we have here is an older wheel gun, made in Spain. The maker is Eibar, who then turned into Star. She is old, she is a little tired, but she still goes bang. Chambered in .38 Special, Steve (Madpick) loaded me up some "pussy" loads for it to test it out and it was a fairly accurate shot!

There is a small timing issue which is, as on occasion it would shave a little of the bullet jacket during fire. This should be used as a fun plinker, and not a self defense weapon. Since "Spanish metal" has always been rumored to be soft, please do not attempt to hot load or +p this gun, the results could be pretty bad. I will include 8 rounds of the light loads Steve made me (called .38 Thpecial, with the lisp).

Rules or the PIF:
    Reply to this thread saying "I'm in" or something to that nature
    Contest ends 12/1/2011
    You must be of legal age to own a pistol
    You must be legally allowed to own a firearm
    You must be a site supporter to enter. (This means that your name must be orange, unless it has been changed for another reason such as becoming a moderator.)
    You must have your avatar and location in your profile
    You must be a resident of Washington state
    Transfer of the pistol will be a private transfer, in person, location to be somewhere near me.
    Winner will be chosen by a random internet list generator
    End user promises to use light loads

** This is not a $$ drive but.... If you want in, you must become a Site Supporter before the drawing on 12/1 and state "I'm in" in this thread. To become a supporter, please read THIS. Donation amounts are fully up to you. **

I would like to end this saying thank you to all members. General members, supporters, mods, and the other admins; This site would not be what it is and where it is without all of you.

Nope, Hammy did just fine. We manually put people into the Supporters group and I was out and about when his donation came through. If you look now, he's colored up!

Hammy, thanks man! :-bd
