    Front Sight suggestions for 627-5 PC 5"

    Thanks guys. Just to confirm that the Performance Center 627-5 with 5" barrel has a DX front sight? SDM shows both on their site. Doesn't look like Hi-Viz makes a front sight for this specific gun or I am reading their site wrong?

    38 Defensive Ammo for Snub

    I carry Nyclads in my backup 2 1/8" 60. I have shot the BB 158 +Ps but with a backup gun I practice shooting one hand/off hand. The Nyclads have a good record at backup distances and are soft shooters even off hand. For me, J Frames are for up close and personal distances and with only five...
