Took the plunge, 342PD

[cuerno de chivo]

Got a 342PD this evening. Man this thing is light! Can't wait to put it through its paces.

Cool gun. I been wanting to get one to compliment my Total Titanium Taurus 38....

Don't forget ... jacketed bullets only!

fwiw the manual says lead is fine for standard pressure ammo

The 342PD is a fine revolver. It weighs so little that I could hardly believe mine is comfortable to shoot with standard pressure cartridges, and still manageable with +Ps. I think the Hogue Bantam grips help a lot.

Anyway, congrats on the purchase.

The 342pd is my bug. So light, I forget it is there. Being so light it has different characteristics when firing. Be sure and try some different loads at the range to learn the guns characteristics. I am using 110gr Winchester JHP silvertips or 125 gr +p brass jhp Remington Golden Saber. Super gun, though I see a lot of folks buy, then get rid of very quickly cause they don't like it's recoil characteristics. Or they think it is a gun for plinking.

Put 200rds of 130gr ball through it last night. Shot it with just the Barami-Hip Grip. It does kick. But not much worse than my 642LS. I love it. It's a winner.
