    S&W m.49 fan here. Once you learn the trigger they are hard to beat for an easily concealed handgun

  3. Some sage advice on this podcast. I like how they point out how difficult these revolvers are to shoot. Not a beginner's firearm by any stretch. That said, my 642 rides with me every day.

  4. Excellent advice! And yes, they do take practice to shoot well. I carry a 637 as a bug all the time.

  5. It's hard to tell... is that a nickel 10 or a 64? Either way, it's cool. There's something very purposeful about a 2" K.

  6. It's a nickel Model 10, Tam, one of my favorites for taking to the front door at night when the doorbell rings.
