As far as the fine shooting, it is amazing the difference laser grips make for pure accuracy. I am tickled pink with the grouping and placement of the shots from this revolver. I know the criticism of having a laser on your pistol is that the Bad Guy can locate you. But in reality when that laser goes off and pinpoints the Bad Guy, I think he will have wished that he had not located me.
The second thing I have found is that the difference in placement of the shots at 10 feet, 15 feet and 23 feet is negligible for this weapon with the laser grips. There is no need at these distances to worry about making sure the laser is parallel with the barrel or any other worries. Personally I would recommend zero'ng in that laser at 7 yards and feeling confident that you now have a great mechanism for placing shots to aid you with stopping power.
Now I am not worried about giving up my large 9mm for this 38special. With the ability to produce surgical accuracy with the laser, this gun will more than compensate for the lack of continuous shots.
BTW... Robert Mika stated my holster will be in the mail in 10 days. Now I need to look at speed loaders, and I will be all set.
Maybe there are two or three bad guys, one facing away from you and one facing you. You are hidden in the shadows or otherwise concealed. You would not want the laser shining on the bad guy's back while you line up your shot. The other BG was looking past him (in your direction), that would tip off the bad guy when he sees a shiney red beam coming from some shadows or behind a bush

It's even easier in PA. All you do is fill out the paperwork, have your local PD sign it, and bingo - you get to CCW. No range or class time, no info booklets on where and when you can carry or shoot - just fill out the papers and write a check (can't remember how much $) It's easier to get than a drivers license. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. I worry about the people that get their CCW and don't have the first clue of which end of the gun the bullet comes out of, or take the time to educate themselves. Too many bad things can come of this. All it takes is one stupid incident to happen because of someones ignorance, and the antis and the news media will be all over it.I've had my 642 for about 4 months and decided to get my CCW Permit her in Arizona. Boy it sure doesn't take much here. Just a 8 hr course and the range to prove you can shot straight and know the safety rules and laws. Oh yah $65 for 5 years.
