Saw a posting the other day where the poster said they were going to take their snubbies to the range for an outing. That sounded like a great idea so this morning I opened the safe and got all my snubbies out for a trip to the range. Snapped a pic before I left for the outing: From the 12 o'clock position clockwise; Blue 36, Mod. 60, 19-3,66-1,
15-2, 10 no dash, 31-1, and 36 nickel. All good shooters but my favorites are the 15-2 and the 66-1.

That post was mine. Going out tomorrow. You have a pretty decent collection yourself, though I must admit I prefer blue steel guns. Too much of a traditionalist I guess. That being said, I wouldn't throw any of yours out.
 
This thread requires an initially academic but increasingly contentious debate about what constitutes a "snubby". :D
 
Usually, once or twice a year, I make a "little gun" range trip. where I work my 442 and .380 Kel-Tec. An older Cobra usually goes along, too. It's beneficial for me to concentrate 100% on the hard-to-shoot stuff for one day. They get shot sporadically throughout the year, as well.
 
Dale53 and I periodically have an "Itty Bitty Belly Gun Match" when I visit him. Anyone who knows us that it is the gun that is itty bitty and neither of our bellies! :D :D

Most times, I favor either my post-War true I-frame 32 HE or my Baby Chief with late style ribbed ramp front sight, but I can stretch the point and we can both shoot our Model 60-4s (3" under lug bbl w/ adjustable sights.) Our game, our match, so we can shoot what we like! ;)

Beautiful... just beautiful!
 
I enjoy my SW 60 stainless snub purchased (1969) and SW 19 chrome 2-1/2" purchased (1971) both have nice Pach grips and both are very on the money at 50'. I used both during my LEO years as detective and relied on them for my life.
