I just got my detective special, am way excited and want to hear about your snubbies

[MCgunner]

I've carried a Taurus M85SSUL for the last 15 years when I'm in a revolver mood. It's very accurate, fantastic trigger, points well, and always goes bang. :D At the time I got it, it was one of the few alloy frame guns (17 ounces) that was +P rated. Now days, they all are.

[56hawk]

I sometimes carry this S&W 500ES. Put it on my permit mainly for when I go hiking in the mountains. Surprisingly easy to conceal. I've yet to have anyone notice when I'm carrying it. Even when I tell people they can't figure out where it is.

[Coal Dragger]

I only own one, and it is not a concealed carry gun. However when I go afield I find myself grabbing my Freedom Arms M83 .454 and a Galco Kodiak holster that it rides around in with me. The Kodiak is made for up to a 7.5" barrel, so the 6" on my M83 is has a bit of extra room. The rig rides well, is easy to wear in the truck, and goes on and off in a snap, plus it easily adjusts to fit over or under winter coats depending on how I want to wear it. A little pricey, but worth it for the convenience of being a first rate field holster.

[Lawdawg45]

I'm blessed to have many options. My everyday carry is a S&W 649 (stainless J-Frame with shrouded hammer), but I'm one of those rebels who carries a single action 45 colt, and that beauty is a Ruger Vaquero Sheriff's model with Birds Head grips. I also have carried a Charter Arms Bulldog in .44 spl. and am currently searching for a model 10 S&W.;)

[wlewisiii]

When I carry a revolver it's my 4" Model 10. Beautiful blue steel delight.

[roaddog28]

If I do carry I have three choices. My S&W 10 4 inch, Ruger Police Six 4 inch and my S&W model 36. I have holsters for all of them.

Love that diamondback ever since Mcqueen carried it in Bullett! I still carry my 1993 detective special when my paranoia causes me to mistrust my semi's!

[psyshack]

When I carry a revolver which is rare.

I carry my 686P.
http://www.cleanmpg.com/photos/data/638/medium/6861.jpg

Or the wifes 60 Pro.
http://www.cleanmpg.com/photos/data/638/medium/m60pro1.jpg

Truth be known. I prefer the wifes 60 Pro between the two revolvers. I can man handle it with ease with full house .357's in it.

But the sad and horid truth is: A PF-9 gets carried 24/7. If I feel the need to go up gun. A M&P .45 is ready for action and there is always a wonderful G20 with loads way over book ready to make holes.

We wont own a revolver with less than a 3" barrel. Many will but we wont. True subs have no place in our plan of defiance or active shooting (aggression). And 3" plus barreled revolvers will always be a part of our armory in .357 or larger.

A revolver can and will give the shooter excellent shot placement if they know what there doing. The only limiting factor concerning high hand is the hammer. No slide bite.

[wrs840]

I carry autos in town. Back home in the sticks, I switch to a revolver. A S&W 637 2-1/2"bbl is in my pocket right now (in a Desantis Nemesis), and I like it way better than a hammerless snub, it fits jeans or Carhartt pockets just fine and is a homeplace staple. When I switch to hip carry for outdoors, I've really become habitual on my S&W M64 3"bbl in a Desantis leather pancake holster. It's comfort and ergonomics on one hand, and on the other, of my my numerous choices, I've come to like and trust both of the individual guns a lot.

[dusty14u]

I recieved a Rhino from my wife for Christmas. It is one nice CCW gun. The recoil from full house .357 loads are like target 38 Specials. I carried an SP101 before I got the Rhino if I was carrying a revolver.

[Haywood]

My carry Revolvers are Taurus 617 dao Stainless, Taurus 605 stainless, SP101 dao 2", LCR357, S&W 442 and S&W 37dao. Most of the time I carry the Two Rugers. SP101 IWB and the LCR357 in the of hand pocket as back up.

[ColtPythonElite]

If I'm belt carrying, I carry a SP101 in a leather pancake 99% of the time. For those occasions, when I'm wearing a suit I carry a Colt Cobra in the same pancake. The lighter package doesn't tug down dress pants like the SP does. If I'm pocket carrying, I carry an Colt Agent simply dropped in my front pocket.

[Hondo 60]

I carry a S&W Model 38 in a Blackhawk pocket holster

[Guillermo]

What makes a daimondback different from a det. spl.?

Top strap (section of the frame above the cylinder) is thicker (which obviously leads into the thicker vented barrel)
2.75 inch barrel
as you mentioned, adjustable sights.

Also the action, while of the same design, is hand fitted and tuned to Python smoothness.

BTW, a tuned Detective Special is, perhaps, the finest snub revolver ever made.

No snag sights are a big plus.

I had a 3rd generation DS that I gave to a buddy.
A truly great gun.

[TrakHack]

Detective Special here, too. It's a "shooter" version of my very nice Cobra, both second generation. I purse carry with a pocket holster placed in a small messenger bag that I can put in my larger tote bag or clip to my belt loops. It's a little heavy when clipped to belt loops but so far is the best way I've found to carry on on my body.

I've thought about getting a small semi-auto that's easier to conceal, but I just don't care for them.

[asia331]

An SP101 is my everyday back-up. Primary sidearm is either a 5"1911 or 4" GP100..depending upon my mood. Realize that's not very scientific. The truth is I like 'em both..and carry both.

[buddyemily]

K frame model 10 and Taurus 605 in 357 mag. Both are snub nose. Great guns and real shooters.

[shiftyer1]

Right now it's a security six or a blackhawk but not in public just oc on the property. I'm in the market for a snubnose 38 as we speak. I was eyeing a chiefs special but the price wasn't right.

That rhino makes me curious.

[Tomcat47]

I like My Taurus 905 9mm....

tell me a story
My brother bought it to carry when he was jogging. He replaced it with a Ruger LCP. I bought it from him and wore it in a Galco IWB holster. His wife wanted her own small gun, and I gave it to her as a wedding present. She is not too fond of revolvers and "adopted" his Glock instead. He gave it back to me for my birthday, this time with a Clipdraw holster attached.

This is my summertime gun usually. It hides better than my XD9 with only a T-shirt as cover. Would have never bought a Clipdraw myself, but I like the no-bulk carry it offers, so I will keep it.

[MedWheeler]

When I do carry a wheelgun, it's usually one of my two Charter Arms Undercovers. One of them I purchased new in December of 1987, the day I was hired as a cop. The second I inherited in December of 2010 from my dad, who had also used it as a LEO. The serial number on his dates it in 1967.
Lately, I have also been carrying my Ruger Service Six (also inherited when my dad died) on occasion, to test my ability to CC a full-sized service revolver. I have only a couple of shirts long enough to cover it, though, so it's far from a frequent thing.

tell me a story

I just got my detective special, am way excited and want to hear about your snubbies
the Detective Special is a nice little gun. my mother has had one for years, and carried it every day.

i currently don't own any; i sold mine to fund other purchases, or to pay bills. but i did own, and religiously carry, a S&W Model 642 (no lock), and a Taurus UL85. the S&W had a better fit and finish, and carried better in the pocket. the Taurus was easier to shoot, and was faster on follow up shots (the barrel had custom porting).

i miss them both, and hope to buy another 642, at least. another revolver i have in mind is the Ruger SP101. my good friend has one that he lets me shoot regularly. it's not a lightweight gun, but it shoots better than any revolver i've ever shot.

[jahwarrior]

DS.
Derry, those pictures are beautiful.

[krupparms]

I have a few to pick from. For open carry a Rossi 971VRC, S.S., .357 mag. or a S&W 1917 ARMY MOD.in .45acp. .For CC, a S&W mod. 638 or S&W mod.642 . Both the snubs have C.T.laser grips. All 4 are great guns & I can shoot them well. For deep CC I use a NAA Blackwidow in .22mag. These are working guns but I shoot them for fun also.

[krupparms]

Almost never carry one, but when I do I alternate between the smallest and largest. Around the yard I'll sometimes carry my 5.5" Vaquero .45 Colt in my overalls. If out and about, I'll only ocassionally take my Detective Special.

[SharpsDressedMan]

"That cut down 1917 rov. is a nice looking gun! That has to be the best looking job I have seen, Who did the work? " .................................................................. Krupparms, that was done by Kent Singletary, Glendale, AZ. The finish is just a matte bluing, and the grips were rather plain Ahrends cocobolo. I smoothed the grips edges up a bit, and then used a wood chisel to give them a kind of "bark" texture. Didn't turn out quite like I wanted to in looks, but it is perfectly functional, giving the grips some "grab". I picked up the gun already shortened with the sight mounted, and it hit centered, but was WAY too low (about 16" @ 25 yards), and that is why the sight got "flattened", to bring point of impact up to 25 yards. Kent could easily have done the sight & barrel work, as he has done a few other S&W's for me with such. Here are a pair of S&W Hand Ejector's in .45 Colt that were modeled after the "Indiana Jones" gun. http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m247/matquig/DSC06058.jpg

S&W 442 daily EDC.

[iLikeOldgunsIlikeNewGuns]

Most of the time I carry a large semi-auto .45acp, but I do indeed carry my 4" S&W 629 .44 when circumstances see fit. I carry it in an old Safariland shoulder holster, and I carry it on the same side as my dominant hand, I'm a righty, so I carry it where a lefty would have it for cross-draw. I have practiced with snap caps and live fire and this is the safest and quickest draw for me. The holster allows me to pull the gun straight out and away (instead of up and out) I twist the gun as I bring the sights up to the target, resulting in the muzzle going in a straight line from the holster to the ground in front of me and on to the target. Also is quicker than cross-draw, I practiced the heck out of both. What works for me may not work for others, but this works great for me :)

For sentimental reasons, I may pack my father in law's old Model 36. Nice ol' shooter, and built to last several lifetimes.

I think my next handgun purchase is going to be another revolver of some sort. I think I need a heavy .357 smaller than my 6.5" Blackhawk (that's a chunky gun). I've got my eye on a 3" SP101. Heavy but yet easily carried.

Here in IL where we are so obviously safe and protected by the police/Chicago bureaucrats, I cannot carry except at work in the shop or on my farm or at home. So, in order: at the shop it is either a 49 Smith, a Diamondback, or a SP101. On the farm, I go a little bigger and take either a 2 3/4 or 4" Security Six or a Charter 44 or, if I'm feeling sturdy (just had spinal fusion of L2-L5) my 624.
At home I have several 357s strategically stashed around where childbride and I can easily get to them.

[Ralph G. Briscoe]

I'm a reformed "bottom-feeder" guy. I've had 1911's, Glock, CZ, Rugers, Brownings. Since getting my CCP it's strictly revolvers--snubbies-- for reasons too numerous to go into.
Most of the time it's a 642 in a Sparks pocket holster but, depending on my mood and the circumstances, it could be a D Special, Cobra, Agent, Chief, 49, LCR, 2" Model 10 or a 327 PC.

[WC145]

WC145 that 9mm is what i want made except internal hammer with no lock
does it feed and extract well? if so why wont smith and wesson make it?
I guess S&W doesn't feel there is a demand. I've spoken to their reps before and even showed them my gun but no dice.

I have no problems with cases sticking and it's a great shooter, no difference in accuracy from shooting .38s to shooting 9mms. The cylinder is actually cut to 9x23 so in addition to 9mm I can also shoot .38 Super, 9x21, 356TSW, 9mm Largo, .38ACP, 9x23, etc.

Get your hands on a scandium framed Centennial with a steel cylinder and send the cylinder to Pinnacle High Performance, they'll fix you up.

[Rexster]

The SP101 has been my most-carried weapon since the late 1990s, as a secondary weapon while in police uniform, and primary or secondary off the clock. Actually, as I own several of them, there have been times I carried two or even three at the same time. These wear their factory grips. Two have been lightly customized by Jack Weigand, with his Tame the Beast package, but not ported. (Jack Weigand no longer does custom 'smithing, but Gemini Customs still does this type of work.)

My next-most carried revolver is my 4" S&W Model 19. As much as I like custom wooden stocks, this is a working sixgun, and wears quite plain-Jane Uncle Mike's rubber boot grips.

When I want to carry heavy iron, I have several GP100 sixguns, all wearing the original, pre-Hogue factory Ruger grips, which seem to have been designed by a long-lost twin, from whom I was separated at birth.

As for posting photos here, even though one of my job titles is photographer, and I take digital photos that are used as evidence in court, I am totally ignorant of how to make digital images appear on-line. The proprietary upload

I have carried a M38 for a while. I replaced it with a 642. I replaced that with my current carry an LCR. of course I prefer to carry my revolvers in a pocket so I'm probably going back to a j frame. I shoot my lcr quite well its just a little bigger than my j frames. I guess my next decision is is there enough difference between a 60 and a 637 to matter?

This is in my pocket at work and on my belt when I'm not. At work it backs up my Glock 22; off duty it backs up either my three inch S&W Model 13-3 or my four inch S&W Model 10-5 or both.:D:D

PS. Yes, I know it's loaded. It's always loaded. It's too light to be a club and too pretty to be a door stop.

:D Best CCW/OC shirts EVER . :D

Search for Hilo Hattie's (the originators of these retina-searing shirts) or Aloha Republic.

The effect is as desired, you'll be so focused on the hula girls or parrots you'll never see the gun. ;)

Hey, reppans -- is that Wasp actually on a keychain lanyard, or is that a bit of trick photography? :confused:


.

[reppans]

^^Yeah... just joking around. But it is my CCW when I can't carry something larger (like right now).

Thanks -- I was just wondering if someone had actually turned their NAA into a "keychain gun"... :D

By the way -- that's an absolutely gorgeous B&W photo you took there! :)

[reppans]

I'd love to really make it a key chain gun, but I suspect it might interfere with the draw somewhat ;), not to mention creating some brandishing issues in the parking lots, and whatnot..

Thanks for the photography kudos!

S&Wfan,

I always like to see that custom 25-2 of yours. Very cool.

[skoro]

Mine's a S&W 642.

[Mp7]

what JTQ said.

That airweight is a beauty.

The keaychain photo is greatness, also.


And i enjoyed the rest of the thread, too.

Mostly a Charter Arms Southpaw. But on ocassion when I'm feeling whimsical.

It's a great conversation starter at the gun shop I frequent most. I had one LEO swear he'd rather get shot with anything but those soft round lead balls. They do tend to make a mess of things. I'd post an image of a bunny I shot with it, but it might offend some.

That is pretty cool, is it a magnum ? I carry a Mini-Mag.

[Husker_Fan]

Here is what I have most days. S&W Mod. 38 Airweight. I love this gun.

It's a wonderful example of the old school craftsmanship that went into these guns, and the flat latch and diamond magnas just add to it.

I like it with the grip adapter, but I might move to something a bit thicker. I think some nice boot grips in a very red cocobollo would be good.

[bannockburn]

Currently I'm carrying a S&W Model 638. Weight and balance are just right for me.

[The Bushmaster]

S&W Model 19 nickel plated 2 1/2"...

[Doug Add]

Sometimes I carry my 4" S&W 686, but that is usually just when outside working on my property. Out and about for regular daily carry the revolver of choice is my 2.25" Ruger SP101. In fact, I just acquired a new IWB holster for it here on the forum a few weeks ago.

Showing 18 years of carry wear. Grips are a few months old.

S&W 642. I love this gun. It is so small and light i can wear it jogging or i can throw it in the pocket of a heavy coat. I bought it for my wife, but i have confiscated it.

[JFrame]

I love coming back to this thread every time I see a "Revolvers Are Dead" thread elsewhere... :cool:

[Elm Creek Smith]

In addition to my Model 37 in post #94, I carry this 1982 Model 13-3 in a black Don Hume JIT slide.

The grips keep full house magnums from hurting my hands and keep the hammer from wearing out the inside of my clothes.

[TimeIsRunninOut]

How well does it carry and conceal?

[black_powder_Rob]

also wanted to add that I carry a taurus 905 mainly but have a s&w642 on stand by. I just seem to shoot the 905 better than the 642.

weight there, I'm at work and I don't have the box near me)

[BlackSky]

I really only have 1 carry revolver at this point. S&W 624 3" in .44 Special riding in a Lobo IWB. It carries surprisingly well.
