That's a lieI like a wheel gun but anything bigger than a j frame for me is a no go when so many smaller semi autos are available.

He'll put you on ignore for thatIs that an N Frame in your pants or are you just glad to see me?
Just a suggestion........
I have worn suspenders for years to keep my trousers up, I also wear a belt to have somethign to attach my holster(s) to.
Because it's 10mm I assume.My EDC is a 640-1 which isn’t exactly light, but I hardly ever notice that it’s there anymore. Just out of curiosity, why did he recommend that you try the 610?
It was a revolver class and Cunningham seemed to favor the 10.My EDC is a 640-1 which isn’t exactly light, but I hardly ever notice that it’s there anymore. Just out of curiosity, why did he recommend that you try the 610?
My thoughts pretty much boil down to 10mm isn’t a fight stopper. Neither is 45 ACP, 357, 9mm etc. People can take a **** ton of damage, but they can’t take it to specific areas. Carry whatever tickles your fancy as long as it’s reliable, meets the commonly accepted penetration minimums, and you can hit well with it. Fast.When I took Grant Cunningham's Threat Centered Revolver course in Phoenix about three years back, he suggested that I might want to try carrying this.
It is an S&W model 610 wheel gun in 10mm Auto /40 S&W. It has been under consideration as an EDC for quite a while, but for myriad reasons I was not able to make the change until recently. I am accurate with it and the weight tends to tame the recoil of the 10mm round. The moon clips make reloading quite fast and the 10mm round's ballistics make me think that it would be a good fight-stopper.
The disadvantages of the package center around the weight and bulk of the revolver itself. There is a lot of weight to carry and for some, the size of the N-frame makes it hard to conceal. I'm a big guy so the size is less of a factor for me than it may be for others.
In any event, I've decided to give the 610 a try as my EDC and see how it works.
Thoughts?
Are you waiting for me to agree with you?My thoughts pretty much boil down to 10mm isn’t a fight stopper.
