GP100 357 with a 6" barrel. For just shooting period, I love it. I love pulling this thing out at the range with friends and laying it next to their plastic toy looking things. Then following up their "bang bangs" with a KA-BOOM!!

Nice. I'm looking to get a 2.25" version for carry (357). Nice guns for sure.

Nice pair, Dan-O. I need to get some of those HiViz sights. I'm hoping to add a snubbie as well (with a SP101).

I've never regretted buying my GP100 6" SS. I personally wouldn't get anythingless than a 6" unless I was doing a lot of carrying. I'd like to get a S&W one day, though.

Was that DA or SA? I'll have to hit the range when I get my SP.

I've shot the SW airweights (642?). I did not enjoy shooting it at all. Very jumpy. I'd go for a little heavier modellike the SP101.

Just ordered the Gunvault from sportco.com. It was $83 shipped. It's the 1000 STD model. I have a little one coming and wanted to get used to keeping the gun by my bedside in a safe instead of the dresser.

KJS - that didn't include tax. I paid about the same as you.

Ah, forgot about the drug wars. All that popped into my head was illegal immigrants, which most will go out of their way to avoid confrontation. I'd feel outgunned, too, then. Actually with anything less than an assult rifle.

Sorry to veer off topic, but SoCalShooter - why do you feel outgunned near the Mexican border? Is it hostile environment down there? Just curious. Can't imagine it being like the 38th parallel.

Two weeks ago, I shot various 357's, including a 6" GP100, and a Ruger .44 mag with 7.5" barrel, and honestly, the recoil "felt" about the same on both. Of course the .44 had a little more oomph, but I didn't think it was anywhere near intolerable. I'd say get it in 7.5" from your uncle. It was...

j21bj - the gun he has on layaway is a 3", not 6".

I'd keep a Ruger, DW, one of the 9mm, and a Model 10 for yourself. Give either the other Ruger Service or 9mm to your sons and the other Model 10 for your daughter.

Sorry guys. English is my second language and sometimes, I cannot write as eloquently as some of you. Mods, feel free to modify as you see fit, or even delete the thread.

Sorry if this has been posted before, but I just wanted to know, how many have actually emptied their chambers/magazines in a shootout? (War zone scenarios excluded. I'm talking regular civilians.) Many of you say you carry a 15-19 rounds in the gun, along with a mag or two. Others carry 5...

I'd take a 357 or 44 mag for hunting.

Not sure, but I bought a brand new one (6") for $499.

I'd like to hear the gun range report. Looks nice.

That's not Tae Kwon Do. What most people in the US and other parts of the world see is watered-down, commercialized crap worth about as much as Tae Bo in hand to hand combat.

Do nothing. As in, don't get a gun, practice shooting, don't even think about killing another human being. Lock your doors and hope for the best.
