I have decided to sell my Colt Detective Special. I'm just not happy with the trigger pull given the amount of stacking it has. I really like its size, weight and 6-round capacity. It has been my field gun when I go bird hunting or take long walks in the woods with my hunting dog. Figure it's good to have for coyotes or other predators I may encounter. I wear it in a owb field style holster and it's easily concealed under a light jacket or hunting vest. I like the exposed hammer and large front sight for more sighted shots. I prefer fixed sights. I don't need .357 capability.
So, what options are out there that I should consider? I know nothing about the S&W 36-Chief's Special.It seems a likely candidate albeit with a 5 round capacity.
I have a S&W 649 that I sometimes carry with a Barami hip grip appendix style for CC. I also throw it in a jacket pocket. I will likely buy a S&W 642 for front pocket carry-I like the lighter weight versus the 649 for that application.
I had, and foolishly sold, a S&W 65 with 3" barrel. Sold it to a friend who "needed" it to round out his collection and keep his 3" Model 13 company. Yep, you guessed-he sold the 13. Grrrrr. It's a very fine revolver, but a bit larger and heavier than I need.
I hear very good things about the Ruger SP101, but know nothing about them.
Or should I just carry my Glock 26 or Colt Ltwt Commander IWB and call it a
day?
All thoughts will be appreciated. Thank you!
