I may come to acquire a model 36 chief special in the near future. I've read a couple remarks saying that the model 36 is not for regular shooting at the range for various reasons related to long term durability.
This doesn't make any sense to me, the frame looks just as strong and well built as any smith and Wesson. I don't understand where these claims come from. It's not one of the super light air wights, it's all blued steel. I just can't see the low pressure .38 special doing much damage to a gun of any size.
I don't buy dainty guns I can't shoot as often as I want to. So what's the truth here? Can I shoot a model 36 as much as I shoot my model 10?
