Hello folks,
I've just bought my first revolver... a 342PD. I am very excited about the lil guy and looking forward to learning from you all about S&W and, more specifically, about this snubnose.

Thanks for the welcome. Thus far I am very impressed with the "culture" of this forum. Folks seem to be positive and respectful in attitudes with one another. As a newbie..this is very encouraging to see.
 
Welcome from another resident of NVA and congrats on your new purchase. I have a 360 M&P and keep it loaded with .38 +P jacketed ammo. The lead stuff, .38 as well as .357, tends to "pull" (the last round in will pull past the crimp tying up the gun). I suggest testing your carry ammo by shooting four rounds and checking the fifth to make sure it is still in the crimp, and has not pulled. While I've read a lot about this I have not experienced it, but caution is warranted when carrying the titanium S&W wheel guns. That said this is a great carry piece, but I practice with it often since it shoots differently (e.g. more difficult to keep at point of aim) than my aluminum/Airweight J frames. Best, Old Cop
