S&W mod 64. Simple to use, effective and easy to care for. Also more easily controlled than a heavier caliber revolver if a follow up shot is needed.
Hard to beat a S&W 686. 357 Magnum with six or seven shots. With a four inch barrel it handles really well and would be great for target shooting and home defense

What do you have against the Governor?
Which of those ammo types is less expensive than .38 special?Pfletch83 said:Price wise it offers 3-6 choices in ammo.
Pfletch83 said:For close range home or personal defense the .410 buckshot load by federal is throwing 4-pellets per trigger pull
Pfletch83 said:How much does a 686 go for these days ($800.00-$900.00 maybe)?
Pfletch83 said:A ruger does not a smith make (nothing against ruger)
For what is going out of the muzzle per trigger pull,and the weight of each pellet,plus velocity and intended application...the Federal 2-1/2 inch buckshot load is the cheapest going.
Pfletch83 said:Why buy a .45acp only when you could have a .45 acp plus 5 other cartridge choices?
Pfletch83 said:A person with the Governor isn't heeled into just one type of cartridge.
Pfletch said:What is your less expensive option? (Keep in mind the Governor's M.S.R.P. is $679.00)
And why would it be useful to HAVE to use one type of round only?
