I EDC a 2.25" SP101.
I have a 6.5" stainless Blackhawk that is a tack driver.
My favorite revolver is a 4 5/8" stainless New vaquero.

I don't reload, so a big bore isn't economically viable to me. I have really grown fond of the versatility of the .357.
 
Since multiple entries aren't an option in .357 Magnum currently I have a S&W Model 686-no dash and a Ruger Blackhawk. If I had to list revolvers I use to own it would include:

Colt Trooper Mk.III
Colt Trooper Mk.V
Dan Wesson Pistol Pac 15-VH
Ruger Security Six
Ruger Speed Six
Ruger GP100

Ruger Blackhawk Flattop times 2
Ruger SP101
Ruger Redhawk .357
Taurus 66

With the five listed above plus three S&W K frames in 38 special plus Contenders in 357 Mag and 357 Max, I figure I've got that bullet diameter pretty well covered. ;)

Currently I own none. If I need more than what a .38 Special +P can do, I jump up to .45 ACP instead.

That said, I prefer the K frame magnums and if I had the money would buy a new 66 in an instant.
 
From small to large:
S&W 65-5 Ladysmith 3"
S&W 66-1 6"
Uberti Cattleman 5.5"
Colt SAA 7.5"
S&W 681 4"
S&W 27-2 6"
S&W 27-2 8-3/8"
S&W 28-2 4"
S&W 28-2 6"
S&W TRR8 5"
T/C Contender 10"
 
Colt trooper mkIII, 4" and 6"
S&w 28-2, 4" and 6"
S&W 66-1
S&W 586-2, 4" and 6"
Ruger SP101
US arms Abilene

S&W Model 66-4 4"
S&W Model 28-2 6"

Love the N frames but, doesn't get any better than the K frames.

OTHER - (SPECIFY): Dan Wesson Model 715 with 6" and 2" barrels.

Also voted for my Smith and Wesson Model 19-4 in 4" barrel.
 
Okay, ladies, gents and others, this is a new poll. Please ignore the previous one, as I DO WANT THIS ONE TO BE ACCURATE.

Never happen, you can only pick one and who owns just one? When you go to select others it moves the dot off the first one.
 
That’s some pretty sparse options for S&W. You left out models 27 & 28 among others.

And what’s so odd about having a gun in every room? I do, with-in arms reach, and I live in a quiet, peaceful location.

Mine would be: S&W Models 13-2 3”, 19-3 4”, 19-3 6”, 27-2 6”, 28-2 4”, 60-9 2”, & 65-2 3”. There used to be a Colt Trooper, but I traded it for a S&W.
 
Ruger SP-101 3.06"
Ruger New Model Blackhawk (4 5/8", blue)
Ruger Security Six (4" stainless)
Ruger New Vaquero (4 5/8", stainless)


Got a rifle, too. It is definitely a go-to caliber for me.


EDIT: For voting purposes I went with the SP-101. It was my first and only one for about 12 years.
