I'm buying my first handgun soon. A 357 double action revolver. I plan on spending a lot of time at the range with this gun, and will use as much 357 as I will 38+p, in the beginning.
A couple days ago my local gun shop had a couple s&w 28-2's, and I fell for the four inch barrel with the large target grips. Most comfortable revolver I've held. (Damn good lookin too) The only problem is it's as much as a new GP100, which I hear is as good if not better when it comes to durability and accuracy. I haven't held a ruger yet, but plan on trying one soon at the range. If I buy a smith it'll be an N frame with large grips. Don't know how GP compares with the rubber grips.
What do you think is a better buy for a long life of hot 357 rounds at the range? Thanks.
