Default Another J frame

I put my newly acquired 360 in a sock draw with my 627 pro and...
Actually this popped up on armslist a few days ago and I couldn't resist. The Hogue grip felt nice but it's to big. It now wears a Uncle Mike's boot grip. Gave it a good cleaning and have to wait till next weekend to shoot it. Shares the pocket holster with the 360, and you know it's there. Might look into a belt holster for it. J frames... who knew they were so addicting.

Very nice. J-frames definitely have a way of multiplying. I’m up to four now.

2 x 36ND, 2 x 60ND, 60-15

Looking for a Centennial-style 640 or 640Pro but these seem to be as scarce as hens teeth around my parts.

J- Frames are like potato chips. You can’t stop with one.

I wanted to like my S&W 638. It was light weight & so easy to conceal. What made me sell it was the inability to consistently keep any rounds on a target at 10 yards +. Add to that the recoil didn't allow me to fire any more than 20 rounds or so, since my shooting hand has arthritis & it was painful.

I had to add Pachmayr Compacts and Hogue Tamer’s to mine. I had a hand injury years ago and need the cushion. They still fit most pockets.

Am glad you worked with it! I have an affinity for these little chickenpluckers since they can fit in many pockets and those are the times when you may need a snub. As I've mentioned before, an inexpensive weight-lifting glove leaves the fingers free and can offer some cushioning.

Interesting. I just got my first J-Frame, a 442, and was thinking I needed a 640 Pro to compliment it...
