More resistant to timing problems- meaning "works longer".
From my experience:
Ruger- Best
S&W- Very Good
Colt- Had, do not have, will not, have anymore. (this does not include SSA)
I own two. Bulldog and Bulldog Pug. 1980's made in Hartford Conn. Both shoot every time and are not unmanagable recoil wise. I don't know about the newer ones, but I love these two.
I picked one up at a gunshow about three years ago. It is a repatriated RCMP. Shoots at point of aim at 25 yds. Smooth action. Too heavy and bulky for conceal carry, but rides easily on the belt and fits in the truck just fine.
Love 'em'. How many hours have you spent inspecting them in detail and cleaning an polishing? If I got them it would be alot of time. Looks like you did good.
I guess I am "Old School". I use 158 grain FMJ flat nose in my snubbies. I have no idea how much gelatin they penetrate or what "shock" they induce, but I'm prett surey they will penetrate a jacket and will offer the recipient an unpleasant experience.
I really prefer .45 ACP hardball. Just...
Personal prefence- shrouded hammer for a carry gun. Needs a good DA trigger (thing Ruger LCR). I don't see the need for this weapon to be used at ranges over ten yards.
Okay!! Good start. Now you need a Model 10, Model 19, Model 14, and a Model 18. Maybe even a Model 29. Then you really be addicted and we'll take to the wonderfull world of the great Ruger revolvers.
Love my Model 10's . Both are pencil barrels- don't know if that was the standard barrel- lots heavy barrels out there. First one I ever shot was an Army Aviator's side arm. Then as now these are fine revolvers. Welcome to cult of the Model 10.
