Not right now but my brother offered me his 3" S&W 37 no dash for $120

I carry a G19 right now. I don't really need a revolver, but should I?

>>32843010
Go for it. Try and get it down to $100 too, ask for the brother discount.

>>32842993

I'm in exceptional shape. If you actually carried you'd know that an extra inch on the barrel is hardly a problem. The grip is what gets annoying.

Those raised sights are a bit of a pain though, I'll admit. Can't quite figure out why Ruger decided that was a good idea.

>>32843027
$120 is already the brother discount, I'm not going to try and jew him harder.

He traded away another gun he got for a great deal and in return got this 37 and another pistol. He only offered it to me for $120 because I showed interest in it and $120 is about what it actual costs him when factoring in the value of the gun he traded and the other pistol he received int he trade. It's actually worth $450-$500, which is what he'll sell it for if I don't want it.

>>32843010
Absolutely. Even if you just turn around and re-sell it like a twat you'll have made out breddy gud.

>>32843053
Okay, $120 it is then. I wouldn't think twice.

>>32843085
You said you don't have a revolver, but it is a fact that every gun loving man should own a revolver.

Therefore, you must aquire a revolver. It's only practical.

Can confirm, barrel length doesn't mean shit IWB until you start getting to ridiculous lengths. Have carried a G34 and 4" Security Six IWB with zero issues.

>>32843188
If your revolver isn't a pile of shit Taurus or Charter the DA should be smooth enough to hit a man at any distance you should be shooting at someone. I fired my Security Six >>32843152 in SA maybe 10 times the entire time I had it, all in the first range trip just to try it out. Never felt the need to after that. I would have bought a bobbed hammer but I was too lazy. Even in DA that thing shoots as accurately as a Glock or 1911.

>>32842478
How's the recoil? I've heard it's a bitch.

>>32843219
Not him, but somewhere in between .38 Spc and .357 Mag. Not pleasant, but not unmanageable either. Even with performance equal to .357 out of short barrels, and recoil NEARLY as much, there's a lot less flash and report.

Glocks have shit triggers. I find DA significantly less accurate than SA on all revolvers. Plus, you have to stage the trigger, which is slower.

>>32843340
On my Security Six at least I could just rolled right through the trigger because it was smooth and didn't stack.

I did have a Hi-Standard .22 with a pretty shitty trigger that was basically two stages. It started about 7lb, halfway through increased to 10lb, then stopped at a wall before finally breaking at about 12lb.

>>32843346
Then why do you need so many bullets?

Are you a really bad shot or something?

>>32843359
They're okay. They aren't good.

>>32843397
I've had one as a pocket carry for years. Been a great gun

>>32843387
I mean, I can tolerate the DA trigger on the LCR. But it still shakes the gun as it breaks, even so slightly.

But the sp101? Its DA trigger is awful; 2 stage, heavy pull even after dropping the spring weight, and awkward to pull ergonomically speaking.

I love the SA trigger break on it, but I can't imagine trying to shoot the thing for a dam DA.

>>32843389

Sweet OP, the S&W 642 and 442 were made for you. Meet Carmelita, my gun wife. S&W M&P340 .357 wheelgat. Significantly more expensive than the 642/442, but it is the smallest, lightest .357 of its kind. I love her deeply and feed her only the finest short barrel .38spl +P hollow points.

Fascinating, really. The impulse kinda goes more into your shoulder, and there's a hell of a lot less muzzle flip, so faster follow up shots. The recoil is still there, just distributed into you a different way.

>>32844791
The M&P340 is the only model with a U-notch rear sight and tritium front sight. Worth the extra $$ for it's ability to fire .357 - Super small frame = Excellent self-defense carry option.

>>32842960
I'm not the only one, then. I can't get over the spacegun a s t h e t i c s of the Rhino, even if it's kinda fedora.

Does anyone even make good shoulder rigs for the 50DS?

>>32842747

There's no practical downside to having a shrouded hammer. The option to shoot SA is never a bad thing. Makes it more fun to shoot at the range too.

>>32844779
Having tried some techniques, speedloaders, etc it's rather up to you and some practice. I carry a SP101 and have a couple of speedstrips with me because A) they lay flat in my pockets so it's comfortable for me and not as bulky and B) I can reload with them however quick or precise as needed.

Although I wouldn't personally CC a revolver just because muh capacity I'm not gonna criticise you for what you choose to defend yourself with.

But I think if you haven't found a semiauto you like you wont anytime soon. The semiauto game is pretty much good as its gonna get with Glocks, XD's, S&W, HK etc.

for those who carry a .38 snubby, what ammo do you run? i carry 148gr wadcutters in the gun with a speed strip of swc for faster reload under stress. i don't trust a jhp to do its job out of such a short barrel. thoughts?

hello,

I departed from semi-autos for a short while, opting for a beautiful six-shot 78' Colt Detective special I acquired while working at a gun shop. I practiced regularly with this revolver and shot well with it.

I am on board with the current paradigm of high capacity low recoil 9mm polymer pistols, I also believe revolvers (a few in particular) are good choices as a modern self defense handgun.

Personally, after viewing a lot of self-defense shooting footage on the internet I identify two different ways to go when it comes to handguns..

The first I mentioned earlier, high capacity low recoil, which makes sense given that with modern ammunition all the popular handgun calibers produce the same ballistic performance. Most people here are on board with this, basically.

The second is lower capacity, high "FUCK YOU" caliber performance guns. Such as the S&W 586+ Performance Center. This little bastard holds 7 shots of .357 Magnum in a pistol similar or smaller in size than a Glock 19. Something like this or a .44 Magnum, in my opinion, would be a good choice for STOPPING AN IMMEDIATE THREAT.

I mean, for instance, I saw footage on live leak of this asshole who ran into a J.C. Penny's at a mall armed with what looked like a Ruger 10/22, some kind of semi-auto carbine. I tried to imagine if I was standing there at a perfume counter or something when this guy suddenly appeared at 10-15FT away from me with a carbine, what pistol would I want to draw to stop him from killing me? Well, imagining that horrible situation makes me feel vulnerable. At a moment like that, in my opinion, marksmanship might matter more than capacity.. Maybe having a fucking .44 Magnum with some INSANE underwood ammo or buffalo bore ammo would be what I want. I don't know.

just thought I would share

P.S.
My opinion on good or best carry pistols:
Glock 19, Glock 17, CZ P07, CZ P07, HK USP Compact 9mm, HK P2000, S&W 568 L-Comp, S&W Shield 9mm

currently carry a glock 19

Cocking a hammer is no worse than using a glocke to defend yourself

>>32850628
a DA in any state can claim that cocking a hammer is a "willful, preparatory action" and rip your self defense argument to shreds. hammers will either A) snag on your shit, costing you that second that would have saved your life. or B) fuck you sideways in court

For an intentional shooting this argument is retarded, please stop it. The entire point of using a gun in Self defence is to stop the threat, so of course you were willfully prepared to do so. What matters is if you were justified.

For an accidental shooting, if you cocked the hammer and you admit it/they can prove it: you're fucked.

Rugers are the Glocks of revolvers.

People call them ugly, but they keep on working.

That's a fairly good description for some of their last gen semi autos too. The P-Series were aesthetically speaking some of the tackiest two-tone ghetto blasters of their age, but are overall VERY durable and reliable, being fun plinkers or even feasible carry pieces (if you're financially limited; there are certainly better options, but these will get the job done) in this day and age.

>between premeditation and self-defense

What are you on about? Premeditation is not a verb it's an adverb. You seem to be suggesting if you shoot someone DA it will be self defense but if you shoot them SA it will be murder, all else being the same.
You might as well tell people not to rack their shotguns because that shows you intended to shoot someone.
