The palaver about kit guns has brought the idea to me that I have known of at least one kit gun in .38 Special.
The gun belonged to my friend, the late Cecil Vick. It was a J-Framed .38 Special, before model numbers were instituted. The gun was blue, of course, and had a 3" heavy barrel and adjustable sights. He stoked it usually with .38 Special wadcutters, but at times we shot it with some 110 gr. JHPs. It was usually found in the pocket of his hunting coat, and after a morning of squirrel hunting we passed it around for some plinking, and a time or two he knocked off a squirrel with it.
And I'm still thinking a little .38 Special, maybe the one from Cimarron, just might fill that bill today.
