1st Snub nosed revolver...
After long debate and consideration I have decided to ADD a snubby to my arsenal. Have not decided WHAT yet. The purpose of this gun will be to carry concealed here in Northcentral Arizona. Some serious questions remain for me though: 1) 5 or 6 shot? 2) J frame (or d frame colt) or K/L frame? 3) If a S&W do I get a new one with the "Hillary Hole" or look for an older one? What are the drawbacks to having the internal lock? 4) Do I need a .357 or will a .38 +P gun be sufficient? 5) Who makes the "best" IWB holsters for snubbies? 6) What self defense ammo has the best track record for 2-3" snubbies?
I own several 4" and 6" S&W K frames, and shoot them rather well, yet I am drawn to the J frame that could be carried "in pocket". So, I defer to you guys, who I am sure can give me greater insight into what I should do. Thankyou in advance for your suggestions.
Keep your aim straight and your powder dry,
