Had a Stardek concrete coating put in the garage. This was the compromise that came out of the unsatisfactory concrete pouring that was done a while back. I’ll have the drywall up soon now that this is all settled. ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Garage](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Garage) Floor1.JPG]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Garage](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Garage) Floor1.JPG) ![[http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Garage](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Garage) Floor2.JPG]([http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Garage](http://www.pittspeed.com/uploaded/Garage) Floor2.JPG) ---

Taurus makes excellent revolvers. Taurus basically bought a bunch of S&W machinery and uses it to tool their revolvers- they’re the same thing as S&W revolvers. I’ve NEVER had or seen an issue with a Taurus wheel gun. I’m not a big fan of Taurus semis- seen lots of issues. Wheel guns are better for 90% of people anyway, and you really can’t go wrong with a S&W, Ruger, or Taurus wheelgun.
