For me it's my pretty S&W 10-5--practical, accurate, and reliable. My nightstand gun, wearing Don Collins's bird's-eye maple stocks.

 

[Comrade Mike]

Model 36 for me. Worked as my dad's back up and now it will work for mine and for summer carry.

 

[CajunBass]

For me it's this one.

Smith & Wesson Model 12-2.



Six shots, Airweight aluminum K-frame, 38 Special, 2" barrel, Tylers T-grip.

I've tried the J-frame guns but just can't warm up to them for some reason.

 

[Cocked & Locked]

My plain and ordinary S&W 36-2 is my favorite. I like the size, weight and balance...and the smooth trigger face.

My favorite is my S & W model 60-9 with the 2 1/8" barrel. I also have a 60-10 with a 3" barrel, but the shorter one is my best ccw revolver. I use 38 Specials in both. wyatte

Favorite short barrel revolver

Either one of the above, but the S&W 66-1 is a bit easier to pack that the Security Six.

I've owned both of these for maybe 30 years now. Both wear Eagle Secret Service stocks and both shoot dead on as well as being zero-zero tight (that is locks tight, cocks tight, no cylinder shake or end shake.)

One heck of a good pair.

We can go from pretty to down right homely too.


Not too bad for 98 years old

Iggy,

Once Hemingway wrote about the comforting feel of 'well worn checkered grips' while in perilous circumstances.

You can see he was right.

I don't consider 3" or more a snubby, but to each his own.

Therefore, I have just one snubby left, a Ruger LCR, and I really like it.

 

[V-fib]

642 with CT grip

My two Taurus® Mdl 85SS2UL 38 Specials.....

 

[Barry the Bear]

Colt magnum carry, got to shoot one once and fell in love.

 

[NMPOPS]

Here's mine an S&W M638. The locks been deactivated.

[Deus Machina]

Me and my Taurus M85 are getting along just fine.
I'd trade it in for the S&W equivalent, but like the weighted barrel contour (more like a Ruger) and couldn't find a J-frame with a 2.5" barrel locally.
I loved my friend's SP101, too, but the barrel was shorter and it was a bit heavy for the pocket carry I wanted, so passed.

 

[ColtPythonElite]

I have a variety of snubs, but carry a SP101 most of the time.

 

[huntershooter]

Another mod. 12 fan.

My NAA 2" BW is always in my front pocket, 2nd place is a 3" 629 44. The BW has been very useful on small game from the tractor and the 629 keeps the freezer filled.

 

[F-111 John]

S&W Model 60 no dash that I inherited from my Dad. Grip has since been replaced with a smaller Hoague.

 

[hardluk1]

I carried this taurus 85SS in my front pocket mainly for 20 years. Still looks good today , almost 26 years later. Best trigger ever too.

 

[highpower]

I'm rather partial to this Colt DS I picked up a few years ago:

 

[skoro]

One of my carry pieces:

S&W 642 with Crimson Trace grip.

 

[jeepnik]

Well, now I have several snubby Smiths. But the one that gets carried the most is my Charter Arms Southpaw. Yea, I'm a lefty living n a right handed world.
