nice piece, you could always use that to hold-up pimps and drug dealsers to make some pocket cash...

Respectfully Lubey, it's not a nickle plated .25. It an extremely light weight (12 ounces empty) .357 hand cannon. Who needs 10-15 rounds when one will put any scumbag down for the count?

Where North of LA are you? I will be in LA in a few days and would be interested. Legalities are not a problem. What brand of holster and speed loaders?

That is a great carry pistol. Most owners use a .38 special round in it. Less kick.

Would put a couple of .38 rounds in the cylinder then the .357 after that. If the first two will not knock it down, then I could care less how much my hand will hurt and its time to let the magnums loose.

my bro carries that (or one very similar) as his off duty piece. no holster needed. he has a rubber coated sock, and he has the entire thing in his front pocket. when he pulls it out, the rubber grabs the pocket and stays put.
i would love that thing, but i live in a happy crime free zone...called california. i have to go and tend to my patchoulie patch now...

That's a pretty sweet gun. I'm not a "gun nut" but that one makes me want to be

Yikes.... I've shot a fairly light .357 with a decent barrel on it and that was a mean gun... I can't imagine that beast.... Sure is purdy though...

When the **** hits the fan and you need that cannon you won't notice the recoil or noise in the slightest.
Load that puppy to the gills with 125gr Federal or Remington SJHP's and call it a day.

We shot one of those (S&W Airlite) last Sunday and it was a very nice shooter for being so light.

Birdshot will not kill anyone, but they will know they are not wanted there. Should some silly relative or neighbor be in the house, they will still be alive. Should it be someone with "less than good intentions" then the next four rounds will go by fast.
