    CCW for Road Biking

    Armed and riding I'm glad to see I'm not the only one. I carry a S&W 340pd inside an uncle mike's holster inside the biking shorts on strong side. some times I carry the smallest fanny pack (the kind it only fits an I pod) where I put my ID and 2 strips of bianchies strips. The strap on the...

    S&W 340 PD, anyone here own it?

    340pd Vs. 642 I own both. I first bought the 340pd for pocket carry and backup gun. It turned out to be such a comfortable gun to carry that I found my self carrying it more than my semi. Then I bought the 642 as a backup to the backup. I thought the same thing 3 oz is not that much. Well I'm...

    Who here has shot an S&W 340PD? (Airweight .357)

    Locked up 360pd Socrates: Looks like you got an ejector rod coming unscrew while the cylinder was closed. This happen to me on my 340pd. Try to pry the ejector rod of the lower front barrel log. When it opens, unscrew the ejector rod (careful with the springs) and put some locktite and screw...

    Who here has shot an S&W 340PD? (Airweight .357)

    340pd +1 Sawbones. I settle on gold dot 135gr 38 +p. I fired many 357 mag rounds through the 340pd. They where all manageable and not uncontrollable ( I have Crimson trace rubberized grips in it), however they where not as accurate as the Speer gold dot 135gr 38 +P. It is the only snobby...

    .44mag 4" S&W 329 OR .454/.480 2.5" Ruger Alaskan for trail gun

    decisions, decisions!!! Hey Jhailet: All things being equal the 454 casull have as many or more option than the 44 mag (as far as bullet weight and velocity). I don't know about the .480 caliber. To help you brainstorm; First identify the primary target. Let say Brown bears. Second...

    S&W 329 opinions???

    No crimp jump Jhaislet: I have to admit that I have only shot the Garret 310gr cartridge made for the 329 only 18 time ( three cylinders full). The 310gr cartridge @ 1325fps I only shot one cylinder full ( 6 shots) out of the 329. Not enough for a definite answer but I didn't have any crimp...

    S&W 329 opinions???

    Yes Jhaislet: Garrett in my opinion makes the best Hard-cast bullets which will penetrate better than anything out there. Garrett ([URL="http://www.garrettcatridges.com"]) have 2 types of 310gr bullets, one with reduce recoil (1020fps) and the other for steel revo's and goes at 1325fps. I...

    S&W 329 opinions???

    I Love my 329pd!!! I'm an avid hiker and fisher. I used to carry my 629 6 1/2" stainless to some fishing trips. Now with the 329, I always carry the gun. Very accurate with 44 spl and some 44 mag loads. It carries very well in a fanny pack with camera and all. It never gets in the way, like...

    External Hammer vs. internal Hammer

    My 2 cents. I think that if you're going to carry inside pocket, you would be better served with a hammerless design. The Body Guard still collects lint inside the crack of the shroud and is one more thing to clean and inspect on a frequent basis. Besides self defense guns are almost never...

    Garret Hammerhead Cartridges

    I recently came across, through this forum, on Garret Hammerhead cartridges. I did a search here and in hunting forum to see any fields reports, but no information came up. My questions are. Do you have any experience with this cartridge, 44Mag 310gr or 310gr for 349pd or the 330gr(+P) for the...

    lazer I have a 642 with lazer (crimson trace) and that is where they shine, in low level lighting. Most of the times I also carry a S&W 340pd. It has the low light high viz front sight. It also has crimson trace lazer. By the way good SA (situational Aweraness) and great plan...

    Any ideas on how to carry a Colt Trooper while backpacking?

    Fanny pack The kids and me are avid backpackers. I have been hauling a gun (629 6") for about 15 years. I used to carry it in a side nylon holster that I would conceal with a large shirt. It sucked when you have the backpack on and the straps are over your shirt, cant draw unless you drop the...

    Contemplating a 629

    What is an inch between friends? I have a 629 6 1/2" that I used for hiking, camping and fishing for more than 15 years. I found my self thinking twice of taking it in long hikes and also for fishing. It felt heavy after extended use and more uncomfortable for moving around and sitting down...

    Scandium questions.

    Scadium very light and very strong I carry the 340 pd regularly and shoot it once or twice a month. Last year I used .357 mag loads and even though I don't practice with a full box of it I shoot about 10 to 20 rounds of it every month, the rest were .38 sp+p or just spl. I still shoot about 50...

    How did you come up with your name?

    Double O 757 When I join the Air Force my Pilot tranning bodies could not pronounce my first name well. So they try different nicknames, none stuck until they used my name abreviation O.O. (Double O). Double O stuck till this day. I also fly B757 as of currently. DoubleO757 Double O

    what do ya'll think of the 360 pd?

    340 Pd +1 revo +1 1911fan. Had it for 1 1/2 years. Carry it more and more. Use to practice and carry 357 mag (not full load). Now carry 135 gr gold dot on 38+p. Use to practice with 357 and now with 38+p. Exellent gun, but is not for everyone. It is fun to shoot in 38 special and 38+p. Not...

    My idea to improve snubbies.

    J-frames better My 2 cents: I would remove the front part of the triger guard. So as when you draw your weapon with index finger extended and then pull triger. It would not cause your sight to move out of aim point, as your finger brush the front part of the triger guard...
