A whole herd of you have cited .38 snubs as either primary and/or backup CCW pieces. I'm considering the purchase of one as a backup.
I've seen some very good used Taurus Model 85 and Rossi (not sure of their model number scheme) .38 Special snubs at some recent gun shows, just their plain-Jane blue-steel models.
Can anyone offer handling/shooting comparisons of these two? Are there any pitfalls of either model I should be aware of? Plus, do you have better recommendations for a low-priced ($200 range) .38 snub (or other caliber/action type)?
Thanks to all!
