I recently bought a bunch of stuff from a friend’s widowed sister in law. She threw in a bunch of dies. One set was 9mm. So I felt obligated to buy my first 9mm. Any excuse for a new toys. It’s so light it kicks like a mule.…it’s ‘snotty’ a friend called it My 1911 shoots like a dream next to it but the plastic 9 is much easier to carry around.

I have a double action revolver in 44 mag. And 3 SA revolvers in .45 Colt.
I gave a double action Smith in .357 to my son.

Of course this was all before I lost ‘em all in that canoe accident.

“I have a double action revolver in 44 mag.“

One of Mrs. L’s favorites is our 4” Model 629. I built a “wife load” consisting of a 210 gr JHP over 8.5 grains of Bullseye. Plenty hot, light recoil, and will certainly do a job.

“I gave a double action Smith in .357 to my son.”

We’ve got a vintage 4” nickel played Colt Python that gets worked out from time to time. A few years back I sold off a 4” Illinois State Trooper surplus Model 19. Stupid, stupid, stupid....

I know who has it, he simply loves it and won’t part with it. Smart feller.
