Great content in this. But myself? Rather have a .38 special in snubnose.
Same here. My carry gun is a snubnose Ultralite .38 Special.
The local concealed carry class requires a minimum of 38 S&W Special. It is taught by former policemen and sheriff’s deputies so it’s safe they know what they are talking about.
I carry the Taurus 22 Mag because of arthritis in my hands, but because it has so little recoil, I can get off three rounds in the time it took me to get off one in .38 special.
