I was getting ready to strap on my usual carry (the 27) when the thought occurred to me.... it was going to be a hot and uncomfortable day carrying this thing around. Can't take my shirt off, or even get it wet...IWB carry requires SOME cover!! What to do? Leave it home? Throw it in the (obvious, at least to me) tactical belly pack?
NO!! Thanks to all the information I have garnered at this site, I decided the prudent thing to do was to go and get one of the J-frames that I had been reading about.
Made a couple of phone calls and a couple of hours later I am the proud owner of a 2" Airweight. Would've been sooner but everything is an hour away from me.... then there was a bit of comparison shopping
Total package including ankle holster, pocket holster, speed loader, defensive ammo and another cleaning rod less than $400.
The point of this is to express my appreciation for what y'all pass on in conversation. I knew that the Scandium’s (sp?) were lighter but would kick. There was one nice thread about the sights on J-frames and another about ammo.... all came into play while making my decision.
I put about 100 rounds through it last Saturday and was very impressed and satisfied with the accuracy and handling. Fits nice in my hand and even better in my standard belly pack. Does not print, is not heavy and best of all is WITH ME!!
So just wanted to express my thanks and let you know that I enjoy and appreciate this site.
