    Armed Customer Halts Violent Attack in Party Store - Would You Intervene?

    If I were to lose my father in such an incident, it would console the hell out of me to know he was a "'decent man."' It would mean everything to me as a son, forever; more than any loss of his income or property.

    Any Detective Special Equivalent?

    Rossi makes some (blued, stainless; .357 or.38 only). No firsthand experience, but I've heard good things from a few other owners. I do not need one, but my curiosity has been tempted. They are relatively inexpensive (~$360 or $370? at my LGS) The one I handled there (stainless .357) seemed...

    Protecting yourself while carrying lots of cash?

    If someone has you at gunpoint, you are in mortal danger. Besides some of the avoidance/risk minimization suggestions above, if someone already has a gun on her, your wife's safest move might be to throw the cash on the ground and run.

    .32 H&R Mag J frame and .327 Federal Magnum K Frame

    PoorKnight, You know S&W made an even lighter J-frame .32 H&R mag than the 431/432, right? The 331/332 has a titanium cylinder and shrouded steel barrel liner. I don't remember the exact weights, but it is appreciably less weight (-2 oz.?) if that is better for you. Also the earlier ones...

    Ordered a New Model 638

    Research this one: CorBon DPX .38 Special +P. It seems to be the best combination of reliable penetration/expansion--consistent expansion through any penetrable barrier. The only negative you will find with this cartridge is price. Lots of knowledgable, analytical guys on this board use them...

    I am having a S&W customer service nightmare, REPLACEMENT SHIPPED!!!!

    I liked this line a lot! (Some of the language implied in the next one--not so much.) What an exasperating experience! Although the way you told it, and the incredibleness of it all, elicited several good laughs from me. (I hope that is not upsetting to you; I am sorry for your ordeal.) I...

    Life After Gall Bladder

    From what I have heard, pay attention to this one. I know someone who cancelled gall bladder removal, two days before surgery was scheduled, because neither the surgeon nor the doctor could tell him what the odds were of resulting side effects he had heard of others having, from permanently...
