Not belittling a .22 revolver. Just don't have one, and I haven't been able to say "Bwahahahaha!" for a while. when I say it to my wife, she slaps me. Don't carry very often. Was a Sig 229, then a Taurus M85, now a Lady Smith. A very macho looking Lady Smith. |

This is tough:
.22 Ruger Single Six stainless .380 Colt Mustang stainless .38 Special Smith & Wesson Model 60 9mm Ruger P89 (this was a tough choice; I own three Hi-Powers, Glock 17 and several others.........) .357 Mag Ruger GP-100 4" Stainless (just as tough, I own the Model 28, Blackhawk, SP-101...... Would really like to try out a 686 but can't find an 8 3/8" used) 9x18 Guess .44 Mag. Ruger Super Blackhawk 7 1/2 " Stainless .45 ACP Colt Government Model (don't care about series 70 vs. Series 80, I have both.) .45 Colt Ruger Blackhawk convertible 7 1/2" .454 Casull Ruger Super Redhawk Carry Guns; Colt Officers Model Enhanced stainless .45 ACP and Colt Mustang .380 Stainless I honestly didn't know that my choices would contain so many Rugers, I buy all brands without prejudice, but hey, just being honest.
