Anyone been to Rock City lately?
Unpopular opinion here:
A .38 snubby revolver is about the worst possible choice for a newbie of small physical size or weaker hand strength (most women, and most of the elderly)....
A person who you cannot reasonably expect to spend a lot of time and money, buying ammo by the case, and investing hundreds of hours in dry fire practice in between live fire at the range...
... UNLESS you only want a noisemaker to cause a series of up to five loud "bangs" without any real hope of hitting the bad guy center of mass.
Small .38 special revolvers are the best-feeling and best-handling guns at the counter of a gun store, where they don't go "bang" and where the person dry-firing them (if that's allowed at all) can THINK they would actually hit that light switch on the wall on the other side of the room. But in real life, they're terrible choices that most folks can't hit diddly-squat with, and are unpleasant to shoot too. Making women way to stay home and do gardening rather than go to the shooting range.

There is a freedom loving 2nd amendment defending attorney on ODT.
The Judge/Governor are useless pistols made popular by the Max Payne movie.
They make .243 AR's, but if they were military calibers the rounds would be more widely available and less expensive. Plus it is a far better round than 5.56/.223, IMO.
I will look up the 6x45, though. Thanks man.
Fedex is the best, fastest shippers in the world. LMAO.
