This issue of "Shooting Times" has an article that arrives at the same conclusion vis a vis the best 38spl carry load based on a study that was conducted for the Dallas PD some years ago. It is interesting reading.
I am also experimenting with Unique powder. The Titegroup powder is easier
to work with due the the smaller granulation of the powder.
Glad you are feeling better, I had that bug a year ago. Bad stuff, talk about being put out of ones misery. I probably needed an IV at one point.

"For those of you not from around here, state parks in Texas list firearms as prohibited items in their posted rules, however the head of the department has issued a clarification letter indicating that those licensed to carry in Texas are exempted and welcome to carry in the park."
Can you give me any link to this ruling or letter?
One question I do have is with the LG-405 CT grips. I've thought about ordering them separately or getting a M&P 340 with them. I did *not* like the stock uncle mike grips because the thumb rest was way too pronounced. I'm using the hogue bantam grips right now which are basically the same size, only lighter and softer. They also seem to fit my hand a little better.
I have fairly big hands but nothing massive. I'm just wondering if I'd still be able to get a good grip on the 405's, and if the covered backstrap worsens concealability. I don't want to spend $250 and end up not using them, so any advice on that would be appreciated.
Knowing me though, I'm sure I'll talk myself into it within the next week or so.
586L Comp one of my all time favorites. Whenever I have encountered one it has been $950 Plus. Is that still the case?
In a previous post in this thread, I bought a 642 this past Friday.
I went to the range yesterday and put 100 rounds through it.
I had been carry a model 36, but the 642 is so much lighter. I'm currently pocket carrying as a bug. I'm using a pretty nice Safariland.
I ordered a Mika round pocket holster. I can't wait for it to arrive.
I also ordered a CT Lg-405 grip.
I'll get some pics up soon
j642, don't listen to this rabble rouser named "DA".DAdams said:j642 - Have you checked out the M&P 340 site?
