    So who is good at identifying wood?

    Very nice! (And becoming very scarce; it's now on the CITES Appendix II list.)

    .38 wadcutters in a .357

    Well, I don't want to put you off buying a new gun if that's what you want, but they'll be fine in your 686 or 386.

    ahrends j frame RB tactical combats

    I like them, but they do feel fairly slim, especially toward the bottom. In all fairness, though, I had the Pachmayr Compacs on before, which are decidedly fat at the bottom. I have pretty medium-sized hands. I can still pocket carry my Model 60 with no real issues.

    ahrends j frame RB tactical combats

    They're osage orange (bois d'arc) when they were brand new and still very yellow. They've mellowed to a richer orange since then.

    Anyone Carry a 4" Revolver IWB?

    I carry a 4" Model 13 or 19 in a Milt Sparks SS-2 sometimes. It works fine for me; I don't really notice the barrel length.

    what do you guys think of model 13's

    I unabashedly admit to using my 13 primarily as a strong .38 special, instead of a full-house .357. For the most part, I just don't need that much drama in my life.

    what do you guys think of model 13's

    Yes. it's an EPS #77 Tortilla, with a few miles on it. Actually, I think the only refinement the setup needs is a set of Grashorn's elk stocks; I'm in the process of rectifying that now.

    what do you guys think of model 13's

    Well, mine doesn't look special in any way, but it's probably the last gun I would part with. I know I'm probably supposed to like my 19's and 28's better, but I don't...
