One revolver only - which one?

6" S&w 686

 

[RNB65]

The one I have -- 6" GP100.

This is a tough one. I'd opt for a S&W 625 (.45). Solid HD firearm, super for IDPA and sport -shooting (albeit not for hunting). Certainly not ideal for CC (well, at least not in the summer under light clothes!).

Made a coice yet?

Okay txgolfer45 there are now three pages of responses. Have you decided?

Oh incidentally I'm going to be a rebel. I like the S&W N-frame. I own a 4" 686+ and a beautiful 6" 586, but I recommend a 4" Model 28 Highway Patrolman. You can still find them. Excellent revolver.

Been out of town at a conference. Haven't had a chance to read through the responses yet.

Only 1 revolver

My hands down choice would be a Smith & Wesson Model 19 with a 4" barrel. You have the option of mags or 38s. Lots of fun! NRA PATRON LIFE MEMBER

If you want to stay in the .357 range look at the Ruger Blackhawk, you can pay a few extra bucks and get a 9mm Luger cylinder to go with it, incase money gets tight. I have one in .44 mag and I love it, my only complaint was, until I started reloading it cost me about 50 cents every time I pulled that trigger.
