I like Hornady 110 gr. Critical Defense. Tests are pretty consistent regarding expansion out of a snub. It doesn’t expand too much and thereby penetration stays decent. Recoil is relatively light and accuracy is good.

It is conceivable that Jones was sent to investigate the UFO. J Edgar Hoover was angry that he was never in the loop regarding UFO investigations. The Army and Navy wanted to keep all information restricted to only a few select officers within the military.

With some hollow points, tests indicate an inverse relationship between penetration and velocity (bullet expands too early). The water gets pretty muddy with alot of this.

I agree that the multiple cycling was more of a torture test than what should happen in the real world.

Yankee Marshal did a YouTube video testing different self defense ammo for crimp jump in a LCR 9mm. Some was ok others were not.

For full size semis intended for professional use, I would agree that semis in this class are very reliable. For small concealed carry handguns, I don’t think semis are as reliable as revolvers, especially when you get down to pocket size handguns.

AlienGear has a tuckable hybrid for a 4 inch k frame that would fit the 3 inch barrel.

If S&W thinks they can make a polymer revolver at less cost and sell for the same price as the existing metal ones, then they will start making more polymer ones.

Although you are intending to carry the 637 in your pocket, you might end up preferring to carry it on your belt. In that case the exposed hammer should not be an issue and might be preferable instead Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Hello everyone! New S&W revolver owner from Texas (got a new 67-6). Looking forward to learning some new things here.
