LOL, Yeah that would work, Then again I suppose you could get the
reverse effect with some individuals.
FWIW I very rarely shoot .357's its hard on my K-frame revolvers. When I
shoot wheelgun matches I use 151 gr RN Super .38's I load into .38
special cases. *UD *


Mine is an S&W Mod 28-2. I don't often fire .357 rounds through it. Usually
it's just .38 wadcutters. I've got hundreds of those damn things from when
I had two brothers who were cops.


This isn't mine, but it's the same pistol.

I am not a firearm guy, but it doesn't look like a very efficient
piece of equipment. *Not trying to be an ass, just sayin'...


Oh they are about as efficient as any, and have been aound for well
over 150 yrs. ,,, and I like a revolver, but one wheel gun I can't
stand is a .22.


To me that's a waste.


this is what I have in a 35 *Only with 4' barrel though

Did you mean .38?

Actually 357. sorry I didn't hit the *7* but eh, wahtheheck.

Oh It also has a 4" barrel instead of a 4' .
I'd like to find a 4' barrel for it and a shoulder stock, but for some
reason I think the BATF frowns on stuff like that, but I'm not sure.

Oh well, it does fine just the way it is.

Oh but BTW and this isn't nit picking but a 38 cal is actually .357,
And If memory serves me correctly (maybe) I believe the round was
origionally designated to be called a .38 magnum, but was dropped to
name it for the bullets true caliber.

I don't' know why the mfj's do stuff like that.
