Firstly, the .38 S&W cartridge, NOT a .38 Special that is a S&W.
I'm enjoying the opinions of others on these unpopular caliber topics, I never would have thought the .45 GAP would get almost 40% in a poll. Revolvers are a bit tough because it's not easy to compare two that are similar in power and ammo price/availability.
The theoretical situation here is you just turned 21 and you want to get your first revolver and you want to leave the store with it that day. The only available revolvers at the store are a .32-20 and a .38 S&W. They have Colt's and Smith's in both, the .38 Webley, H&R and Iver Johnson's, heck, they even have a Ruger Security Six in .38 S&W.
For this question the gun isn't really important, so what caliber you choosing and why?
