For years carried a Ruger SP101 in 357 mag snub. Carried a 642 for the lighter weight until one of our daughters decided it had her name on it. Been carrying the little 9mm Shield a lot lately. Not exactly a candidate for WWF Raw I find myself looking at weapon weight more and more. If I lived in Peoria like Whitwabit I would carry two 1911s and a pocket full of mags!
