    Poll: Choose .38 special +P for 4" .357 magnum

    Talk about your distinct minority. Poo, Sorry about your wife's problems. My feelings are that she and your elderly Mom would be well served with a high capacity .22 semi auto or a nine shot .22 revolver. Not trying to drop a deer or kill a wild boar. Just stop your average thin skinned BG...

    Poll: Choose .38 special +P for 4" .357 magnum

    To get WAY off the subject: Please do not bother to read this if you are only conserned about the poll subject.---If now we are talking about stopping an attack, lets not forget the "ouch" factor. Been stung by a wasp?? Hurts like hell. Stop and think about your physical reaction to that pain...

    Serious Question: Have you ever had to....

    I do feel for you, Toolmaker. Hope that helps. On topic: Yes. Shots fired. Ruger 10/22. Assistant DA girlfriend not pleased. Legal reasons dictate lack of further detail. On a more positive note. I have been of service to several victims of violent crime. One with a movie contract. I doubt if...

    New styled pocket revolver

    The S&W 317 Okay, it is supposedly a J frame but is so small and light it is more "I" in my HO. Yes, it is just a .22 but what a fine little piece of 9oz. 8 shot She-Devil it is. And 8 Stingers is better than a sharp stick or a dirty look. Pocket carry is a breeze. A set of Hip Grips and you...

    Old Revolver Suggestions...

    Will this do?? Here is a Mod 10 Smith or a pre 10. Around forever as the .38 M&P. This was the common side arm of cops and robbers. If you require an earlier handgun, there are lots of photos around. Just ask.---Tom

    What's the most obscure handgun you've ever carried?

    Long, boring story, please ignore A Jennings J22--This is a copy of an email I sent to K Frame. Feel free to yawn. x X K Frame--always wanted to tell this story. Bought a J.22 at a gun show. Would not get through 3 rounds with out a jam. Called the "dealer", a home based FFL. He said tough...

    38-40 info needed

    Progress or LACK of???? Didn't mean to hijack this topic. I am not a fan of the 44-40 nor do I now (weeping) even own a 44-40. I was just surprised at the performance of the topic caliber, the 38-40 and wondered about the 44-40. But now you raise another question. The plain old .44 Special in...

    38-40 info needed

    Progress??? Jim-- Just ballisticly speaking. So if the 38-40 equals the modern 40 S&W, the 44-40 must surpass?? The 44-40 is about 100 years older and superior? Yes, I know the case is vastly different, but just from the practical point of view, those old guys must have had some potent...

    Safe to shoot +P out of older S&W Airweight?

    Shipping date for your Smith MM--If you will PM me the Mod # of the Smith and the serial #, I can get you the date the Airweight was shipped from Smith (through SWCA) or you can get close ( as with horeshoes and handgrenades) with the Standard Catalog of S&W in wide useage here on this forum...

    38-40 info needed

    38-40 compared to 44-40 Jim--If the 38-40 is a pretty good round for self defence and about equal to the 40S&W, how does the 44-40 rate??? A better than S&W40? That is the question. Off topic rambling to follow. Need not read.---- Thanks, Tom x x I once had a collection of 44-40...
