For some reason I felt a sudden urge to buy a .357 magnum K frame model 66 in stainless. But what do I do with this thing. The .357 for defensive carry is too loud and blasty for the likes of Clint Smith when he was challenged as to why he prefered the .44 special. The K frame is a dead design because of the inherent weakness of such a small frame for such a hard recoiling load according to Ayoob. All stainless guns are pimp guns and should only be worn to BBQ's according to almost every police handgun instructor I know. The 6 shooter is simply obsolete according to 99% cops out there.
I only have carried autos, this is like an alien being to me.
I carry light weight, easily concealed weapons, at times I find a Sig 229 to be heavy.
I am an advocate of the .40 and 9mm as defensive rounds (9mm with the proper load of course).
No police dept. I will work for will ever let me carry this thing.
I don't collect guns anymore, it's too expensive....but I didn't have a revolver.
I find the Glock 23 to be snappy at times, what the heck am I doing with this?
I'm giving consideration to trading it for an SP101, but I've always been told that a .357 has to have a 4' inch barrel to work like it should.
