Which .357 would you choose, and why?
S&W 686P 2 1/2"
Taurus 617 Titanium 2"
SP-101 2 1/4"
Looking into a second snubby (for the recoil-rugged lady of the house) and I already own (and like) the SP-101, but the Ruger is 2 shots less than the others (and like the "warm fuzzy" of 2 more shots). I am also hearing scary stories from die-hard Taurus lovers about Taurus quality in the last 6 months going way down. Price is a bit of an issue at the moment, hence these 3 choices.
