Buying a new handgun tonight… and wanted to see what people thought…
Looking for a 357mag with a 4+ barrel and stainless… I want it for home protection and range shooting… so what make and model do you recommend… price between 600 and 1000.00

The two most popular choices would be a S&W686 or GP100. I'm not that current with prices, but the Ruger should be definitely under $600 and the S&W may be close.

Between the two I chose the S&W 686+ 7 shot. I thought it had a better trigger.

I just looked at the S&W 686 the other day at Cabelas in Denver. They had it listed for $599.99. I'm not sure if it was the 686 or the 686+, but I personally plan on getting the 686+. I don't think you could go wrong with that.
