I don't like polymer framed guns and I need to pick a good BUG for on duty use and off duty use when I don't want to/can't carry my Sig 220. The catch is it has to be on the authorized weapons list. If the Rohrbaughs are not allow (and that is very likely) my other options are an airweight S&W 357 Mag. The Models are the 340 or 360 and I like the newest models with the stainless steel cyclinders and yet they still weigh 13.3oz unloaded. I will likely carry 38spl +P in it
The other choice is a Kahr MK9. It is heavier, but holds 2 more rounds and is +P+ capable. Although the entire Kahr line has much worse reputation than the S&W wheelgun line. And being a sub-compact semi it is far more likely to have a failure than the S&W.
Also I plan on buying a S&W Model 60 for the wifey because she can't rack the slide on any auto so the J-frame will have the same manual of arms. Also I don't like polymer framed guns so no suggestions for Kel-Tecs, poly Kahrs, baby Glocks ect please.
