posted this on another board, figured i'd see what the folks here have to say as well. i have an opportunity to purchase either a s&w model 34 or model 18 revolver, both NIB and <$500. i'll probably end up getting both, actually, but i'm wondering what the pro's and con's of each model are from practical experience. the model 34 is a j frame, and is smaller and weighs less than the model 18, which is a k frame. the model 18 is an 18-5, so i guess that means its a newer model. not sure about the model 34. model 18 is $25 less (not enough to make a difference). i expect that i'll use the model 34 more just because it weighs less and is easier to carry around, but i suspect the model 18 might edge it out in the accuracy department.
well, like i said, ill probably end up w/ both . but just curious as to what the pro's and con's are w/ each. thanks
