Default 44 Special

I have a blue 3 inch 431 but it is just to big for carry. Was really wanting a stainless 2 inch RB but they are few and far between. You just never know what you'll find when you walk into a Pawn Shop, I was about to leave when I spied this one. Owner talks me into doing their 10 month free layaway so I couldn't resist. If it shoots like the 3 inch SB it'll be great for carry. This one was made around 94-96 time frame and does have a great SA/DA trigger.

SWEET ...nothing like a big bore snub !

My daughter got a Taurus 5 shot , 2 inch snub 44 special , model 445 .
I got a 45 acp version, model 455 , 2 inch ported barrel. I got 45 acp because I was set up to cast and reload for it ...I have discovered the moon clips are a bit of a pain.... the 44 special is the better. I don't know why so many love moon clips, I don't.
The 44 special in a small framed revolver is an excellent combination of size and power....you gonna like it ! They are nice shooting.
