Sounds like a nice gun. Better than them 38's Big Grin

So S&W must be your favorite gun.


If you're going to make a hole, make it a big one.

There's only a 3 number difference between .38 and .41! jumping (I say this in jest)

Let's see the pictures -- don't tease us!

That would be true if the 38 was acctualy a 38 but, since it is a .357 then there is a larger number between them... thumb

Nice... I am a 41 fanatic. FWIW, I have shot all the way up to a 295-grain bullet (my own cast) out of my 6" Model 57, and although accuracy is not world class, the load is "hunting accurate" out to ~50 yards. Out of my 654 silhouette FA it is phenomenally accurate, but there is a lot of difference between 1 in 18.75" and 1 in 14"...

And by all means, get the 4" when you can. I have a 4" nickel 57, and that 4" N Frame is just sweet!
