The very example of the usage of the idiom "string together" is: He can hardly string a sentence together.

Here's how the language actually works. On strings words together in a sentence. One strings sentences together in a paragraph. You string your children along so that they don't realize you're incoherent.
Careful there, pally! Your own use of punctuation, grammar and syntax leaves a hell of a lot to be desired. You might not want to open this particular can of worms.

Something the USA shares with the Middle East is having some of the best armed nut jobs found anywhere.

Black powder rifles and revolvers have a lot less restrictions on them. How much less depends on which state you live it.

I suspect the Python may be having a resurgence in popularity due to the TV series "The Walking Dead"

Afaik, trigger work is what makes the Python special. Otoh, I've handled a Python and am perfectly satisfied with a Ruger Speed Six .357.

No issues. He tends to just make shit up.

The Python is particularly unwieldy, much like a Desert Eagle...

Exactly. Browning P35 is still the best IMO.

I've got a Ruger GP 100 with the 4 inch barrel. I like the way it feels in my hand. The 6 inch barrel felt awkward. I've also got the older wood insert grips. I do not like the Hogue Rubber Grips that come with the newer ones.
