    I gave the Taurus 605 with Crimson Trace laser grips I'd bought for my mom to my little sister after mom passed away. She now carries it everywhere with her. She goes with .38 +P loads instead of .357 mag. But that fireball from the .357 at night is something else!

          I have the 640 in .357, though I'd only shoot .38 out of it. But I'm going to opt for my 642.

              Snub-nosed .38 revolvers are my go-to carry guns. My favorites are Ruger LCR (hammer) and S&W model 442 (hammerless). They're both nice, but I nowadays I prefer hammerless designs.
