The greatest CCW revolver on Planet Earth!

[DennisE]

In my case the hands down winner is my k-frame 2.5" .357 Magnum Model 66. In an IWB Milt Sparks VersiMax2 holster there's nothing more comfortable, concealable, accurate, relaible and beautiful. At least that's my impartial opinion! Yours may differ of course.... Dennis

I see you are a fellow Utahn-but you are still wrong!! My SP101 in 357 mag easily whips a sissy-n-wussy!! .

Seroiusly though-Sounds like you have a nice rig.

If you are in the northern half of the state-shoot me a PM if you want to hook up for a range day.

+1 on the SP Magnum. My DAO is my favorite carry revolver.

 

[savit260]

+1 to the S&W exept mines a Model 19 2 1/2" I like 'em blue! So pretty.


Then agian a 3" GP 100 with the short underlug might be nice to keep the 19 company.

Tuesday's the big day! I'm putting my M19 2 1/2 inch on layaway!

At least that's my impartial opinion! Yours may differ of course.

It does.

I'll second that vote. Both the gun and the holster:

I bought a Mdl 19 2 1/2 " Round butt

really a nice gun and good shooter I bought this thing of rare beauty in 1968 I believe.

I could shoot it better than my partners could shoot their 6" Smith duty weapon. Serioulsy good gun in the right hands. I shot the weapons course with 38 wadcutters and beat my partner, I will never forget it...LOL

I carried a 6" duty weapon as my first line of defense but my second was a Mdl 19. Good memories...

dito on the S&W model 19

I have a model 19 with 4" barrel and it is the finest revolver I own. I would love to find one with a shorter barrel for concealed carry, preferably in stainless steel. Is that the model 66? ...but so far no luck. My choice right now (next on the list) is the Ruger Sp 101. I've got a Ruger Security Six and it is a nice weapon but the trigger pull is nothing like my S&W 19. I expect the SP's trigger will be a lot like the Securities?

rxrick, that engraving is the ****z man! I'd sure love to see more of that gun with a description of the work done in a new thread!

I gotta' agree with the general sentiment though - the mini wheel-gun in a comfortable piece of leather is hard to beat!

Here's the 642 with an acquired but unknown maker of choice OWB leather. So light and comfortable - I can't even feel it while its on...

If I ever gotta' get it off the belt it simply and easily drops into the front pocket and disappears...

I've carried a 19 2.5" on and off for nearly 10 years now.

Tom,

That is factory engraving. Here's another shot, after I put some stag grips on it:

As someone who carried a Model 19-4 4 inch for a bunch of years ,tried the M -13 4 inch ,I have to say IMHO my new to me ,Model 66-4 3 inch is the ultimate CCW revolver. Lighter than the 4 inch ,but just as accurate , don't have to worry as much about the finish in these miserably hot NC summers.YMMV Regards 18DAI.

Although my Model 60, SP-101s, short-barrel Security Six and other assorted snubbies may disagree, I vote for the S&W or Taurus Centennial or Bodyguard style revolvers. My Taurus 650 or titanium 651 are my most commonly-carried pocket guns these days.

 

[trigger happy]

I want a 3 inch barrel model 65 "Smiff & Western"

S&W .38 Lightweight Bodyguard

One of my favorites have 2 of each 19 and 66.Almost had another 66 but just couldn't put down that M64 in .38

 

[2ndamd]

+1 for the SP101. It will take the magnum rounds and not go out of timing.

 

[don't shoot it's me]

Love those 2 1/2 66/19...funny thing, no matter how exotic the wood, I find the tyler t-grip and the stock grips the best looking...of course, those stag grips look awesome too....
