My S&W M&P9 goes bang every time, just to big for concealment

Modern semi autos of reputable manufacturer go bang every time also.

For someone that just carries and never trains for real life situations I'd recommend a wheel gun in 38,maybe 357 for bigger folks that can handle the added recoil.For the person willing to train under stressful situations I'd recommend a semi-auto..........I've literally seen every make and model semi-auto,regardless of price, stovepipe,experience ramp failure so on and so forth.Usually this is an ammo issue but must be dealt with just the same to get ammo feed.


I love my little S&W 642 just for this reason,small,light,perfect back pocket gun,up close and personal it's a beast and it always goes boom

I also love my little Glock 26 and it holds 5 extra rounds

Out of probably 7k rounds I’ve had exactly one round stovepipe in my H&K and I can clear much quicker than a revolver can reload.

Wheel guns are good for old people, people with wear hands, and people not familiar with firearms.

They are fun to shoot, I like hunting with a .41mag as well.

Man those new Colts are pretty.

I immediately regretted selling off my old ones. Almost never shot em, but I liked having em...

Hopefully you aim yours better than that limp wristed Limey does his. 🌫



My favorite wheelie to shoot is a 4" GP100. Fantastic gun.

Mine is a S&W Combat Masterpiece from 1958, my FIL's cop gun.

The father of a dear friend and who was my assistant manager at one of my boot stores in the early 90's scrimshawed it for me. Has a rattle snake. His name was Robert Carrera. (sp?) Super nice family. I think they have all passed except the mother. Great people. Thank you for asking.

nice piece, that Python...how do you conceal carry it?

You wear a loose shirt and put it in a Galco leather belt holster. Or, consider wearing a sports coat. You do NOT have to carry only the tiny micro-guns. With proper planning and clothing we can all carry big boy guns.

I want me a revolver for me and the wife for home security. Semi automatics are not a good option when in a stressed situation. I have one on each side of the bed a revolver I think would be a better choice. Thoughts are sure welcome and what you would buy.

but I swapped out the Hogue Monogrip for these (the backstrap bump on the Monogrip bugs my hand)

Looks like this now

They are solid, decent price, and if you are just a little bit handy, you can clean up the action and other bits if you got a "rough" one. I got lucky with mine, with the exception of my hammer dog gap, which I might shim up someday.

Some people swap out springs, etc......meh......just shoot it, stone out any imperfections, and have a revolver that will last a looooong time.
