    Which J Frame?

    Thanks again guys. I'm leaning towards a 638. Had one and loved it, so will probably stick with that. However, this one may wait a while. I just ordered a Colt Defender form the local dealer. Handled one (already sold but the buyer was kind enough to let me look it over) fell in love, and...

    Which J Frame?

    Thanks for all of the feedback guys. I'll take a look at the 642. A local dealer has a used 638 at a good price, so I'll look that over this weekend before I decide.

    Which J Frame?

    I don't feel a need. It's just what I'm used to owning.

    Which J Frame?

    I no longer have a small gun for concealed carry. I had a 638 that I loved carrying, but lost in a divorce. I'm looking to fill that niche, and have narrowed my choices down (I think) to a 638, 637 or model 60. The 637 that I am considering is the PC/Talo version. The model 60 that I looked...

    Priming on the press?

    I've been priming on my Lee single stage press for years. I only use a hand primer when loading very small quantities of ammo. The press unit is fast, efficient and is easy to use once set up.

    Sounds like a great deal and looks like a great carry piece. Let us know how it shoots!

    New 686 38 special +P

    Picked up the new revolver last night. Unfortunately, it was too dark to do any shooting, but hopefully tonight! One interesting note...the chambers appear to be cut to .357 dimensions. When loaded with empty 38 special brass, there is a slight gap between the leading edge of the brass and...

    New 686 38 special +P

    Just because it was something different. I plan to pick up a 4" 686 in 357 at some point as well.

    New 686 38 special +P

    Hi. New to the forum, and thought I'd introduce myself and the new revolver. Just picked up a 2 1/2" 686 in 38. I had a model 66 and a model 38 airweight that I let go, and have regretted both ever since. I guess I am a revolver guy at heart. This is my latest, but not last S&W revolver...
