The subject of 7- and 8-shot .357 revolvers gets almost no attention here, and, frankly, I know almost nothing about them. No gunstore in my part of Maryland seems to have one and I have no idea whether such guns are readily available, how much more they go for and whether there are any downsides to using them. I also don't know how durable they are.
Does S&W even make any 8-shot .357s? (I wouldn't think they could be made to function practically, but I don't know.)
They've been around long enough that if there are any problems with the design that they would be generally known.
Anyone have any experience with them? What are the downsides? Availability?
Thanks.
