My BIL is on a very limited budget, looking for a .38/.357
He will probably be stashing away $ for a few months then go looking at the Indy 1500 gun show.
Intended use is primarily for range, although he does plan to get his CCW. (He's saying he'll get another smaller gun for carry in the future)
I am more of a semiauto guy than a revolver guy. I am passingly familiar with S&W; vaguely aware of Taurus.
What are some of the other quality/reputable brands of revolvers that might be found at the modest end of the price range?
Any particular brands or models to especially look for? Any to especially avoid?
He was asking for a target $ figure to save up; I suggested $300-350. Seems to me a guy ought to be able to find a very decent .38/357 at a gun show in that price range -- agree or disagree?
