That was my thinking 10 to 15 years ago when I passed on an excellent condition J frame Terrier for $100 or $150, I forget which. Lately I've bought knives that I do not need in that price range just because I like them. Call it collecting. I wish that I'd bought the Terrier. One of my odd ball bullet molds was cut to drop an over size and heavy .38 bullet. I'll bet I could hand load it fast enough to make you say ouch. Regardless, at this point Terriers are long discontinued historical artifacts or collector items. If you had one wouldn't you shoot it?
By the way, the Queen's army thought .38 S&W was a better choice than .455 Webley. Are we really more expert than the Queen's generals?
