Hey, I'm a big S&W fan and own several. But unless you MUST use pocket carry, why would anyone want a 12oz gun and the punishing recoil and slow recovery time?
A steel model 60 or a subcomact Glock, something like 20oz minimum, makes much more sense. And in the case of the Glock a LOT more sense - double the capacity, extremely reliable.
Not trying to hijack the thread or anything. I just don't understand how so many people tend to dismiss such harsh recoil as "part of the game". There are better solutions. And using marginal .38 or .38+p ammo is not one of them.
