I have posted about this type of thing in the past- still trying to figure it all out.
The LGS has a Colt Cobra, .38 special, in what seems to be good shape.
I would like to buy it for a home defense gun, and future CCW-
PRO's-
1. accuracy
2. 6 rounds
3. Colt quality
4. Size; between 442 and k-frame? Better in my large hands
4. OK, I'll say it----cool factor
CON's
1. If it breaks, I'm done
So I am trying to convince myself not to buy the Colt; go with a Smith 442 which is smaller and doesn't fit my big hands as well. Or (sacrilege) go with a Ruger LCR....
Any encouragement on the Colt? I know this is my decision, but I guess I am wanting the best of all worlds.
BTW, I am not interested in buying multiple guns in case one breaks, etc....I need the gun I buy to be durable, everlasting, etc...
