    Foglights are for fog, not oncoming traffic!
    What else don't they know?

    SW 442 is another great choice.

    How does a .38 thread turn into an argument about shotguns and shells?

    Trying to stem the flow of misinformation on this forum.
    If someone buys a 38sp, I would make sure it's rated +P
    Lots of good ammo available.
    Revolvers make sense for a lot of reasons.

    youre not a cop
    youre not a firearms instructor
    you target shoot with some cops
    you live in a complete different jurisdiction
    the information i posted was in response to a question...not a suggestion for someone to buy...your 00buck info is probably correct with regards to civilian purchase...but not to my rounds

    i am required to know everything about the tools i carry and use for court purposes...the law enforcement ONLY rounds that i carry are 8 pellet 00 buck that are essentially .22 rounds.

    Cut one open and mic it...or send it to me and I'll mic it for you.
    Important to know what you're shooting.
    Your jurisdiction spec'd different ammo?

    Well first man, S&W's prices on their website is totally BS. Don't EVER pay full retail for a firearm, and always haggle down the price at a gunshop. If they don't let you, then just walk away. S&W's airweights are great, you can get a used one for anywhere from 350-500 bucks. But whatever you get, make sure it feels good in her hands and it's light enough for her to carry. Happy shopping! :cool:

    www.gunbroker.com is a great place to checkup on current pricing and what's available to you.
