My latest purchase was a S&W Victory 22 in camo. Put a tandemkross triger in it and a red dot scope on it. My grandkids want me to teach how to shoot a target pistol and they said the camo was cool. I took them to a gun safety class and they sure are learning how to shoot. Wish I had thier...
Welcome, I have a several SW revolvers and none of them have ever let me down.
You are doing it right, but you will find out the more you shoot more guns you will want.
Keep shooting and collecting.
I carry a LCR 357 with one speed strip in my pocket. If I feel the need for more I will carry my SW 642 pro in a ankle holster and bring my wife along with me she carries a SW 38 body guard with one speed strip.
My latest purchase was a Henry Golden Boy 22 lr with large loop. My grandson said we needed one. He thinks I will give it to him. Someday but not today.
My everyday CCW is a Ruger LCR 357 next is S&W 642 pro series 38. But my favorite hand gun is a S&W pre model 27 with 3.5 inch barrel produced in 1955 love the 5 screw. Sure wish it could be my everyday CCW but it is nice just showing it to my friends or anyone that appreciates a nice revolver.

I personally say I will continue to CARRY my RUGER LCR 357 because when I pull the trigger it goes BANG.
I carry a LCR 357 or a SW 642 pro series.
Like you I am 63 years young and have arthritis in both hands and they will beat you up. So I practice with a LCR 22 and continue carrying the revolver.
But the shield 9 is proven and will get the job done they are a pleasure to shoot.
