I own a 340M&P, very similar gun. light as a feather but with that said when you shoot mags out of that gun it will get your attention. They are designed IMHO to be carried a lot but not shot a lot at least with full power .357 rounds. I think most shoot +P .38 specials and that's what I carry in mine. In other words BUY IT. Especially if its lower than new price. look on Gunbroker to see what there going for and offer him the same. If you buy it and need a carry holster look at simply rugged holsters. I have 2 of them. the model with the belt slots and loops. So inside or outside waistband carry. post pics if you get it
