LOL, Yeah that would work, Then again I suppose you could get the

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'...
Well, how do you define 'efficient'? It does what I've wanted it to do, and
it was a gift from a cop.

It's not as efficient at some things as at others. All depends...

I dunno, it looks like it has a pretty short barrel so unless someone
is a pretty good shot, my understanding is that a weapon like this is
not good for anything beyond a few feet. Hard to handle too I would
imagine, must have a hell of a muzzle lift, but again, I don't know
from firearms


But as you yourself say, you don't know from firearms.

So, it isn't good for anything beyond a few feet. Why not stand 15 feet
"downrange" and have someone shoot it at you and see what happens.

That'll settle the question for you.


Harry, why not go back to bed and quit being a smart-ass all day?
