Greetings,
My wife recently took her CCW class and will be applying for her permit soon. She is an excellent shot with our .38 Special Colt Police Positive Special and S&W Model 60, and practices both SA/DA . She has stated numerous times that she is uncomfortable with semi-autos, and definitely prefers the operational simplicity of revolvers. Right now, I am leaning towards getting her a new S&W 638 to combine the best features of the 637 and 642 into one gun with a snag free draw and the ability to fire SA if necessary. Of course, I will let her handle one at the store before we buy, but this will be my recommended choice. The ammo choice will probably be Winchester's standard pressure 158 gr. LSWC or 110 gr. Silvertip, but the 135 gr. Speer GD SB will be an option if she feels OK with it.
Please comment.
