The S&W representative was at my favorite range today with a bunch of toys to try out. I'll give a brief run down on what I shot here.
M386PD Scandium .357. Not my cup of tea, a heap of gun to shoot follow-up shots with.
M360PD Scandium .357. Ouch. Recoil City.
M638 Aluminum framed .38spl in a Bodyguard configuration. I compared this one to my old Model 49, and decided I liked the model 49 better. The weight savings don't really seem to be worth it.
M60 Stainless .357 J frame. Now that's better....... If I could find this one used, and the price was right........ This one was my favorite among the wheel guns.
I also shot a Performance center Model 66 with a one port compensator. It had a round butt with wood grips, as well as a neato lanyard loop. I actually liked my $250 used Model 66 better. No pic of that one, sorry.
I avoided the S&W 500 guns, there were two, the big long sucker, and the big long sucker from the Performance Shop. A lot of people were taking those in the range to shoot. It was fun just to watch them. I'm old enough to not have to prove my manhood with a firearm though.........at least until the S&W 500 Snubbie comes out.......... ;D
And Finally...........
Yeah Baby, NOW that's what I'm talking about! You can read my review here. handgunforum.proboards3.com/index.cgi?board=RangeResultsOpinions&action=display&n=1&thread=1721
