Carry

[Junior Bonner]

One of the draws of the S&W snubs is that it's a grab & go gun. Hence, it's always on you. Sure, like you say, there are better options. But at least you're armed - with a .357 Magnum. And it punched through the 4x4 with a jacketed hollowpoint. I don't know about expansion through wood, though. But that's some hitting power up close.

I like the Kangaroo Carry in some of your earlier posts. I have a couple of older ones that have been used often over the last few years. I also have a S&W M&P 340 and it's a neat little gun. It's the only Smith I now own after having had many over the years. But, it rarely gets carried except as a backup to another 5 shot revolver on the rare occasion I feel like toting a wheelgun in the city. In the woods I carry revolvers but feel no need for a backup. My normal carry is a SIG traditional model and I find I can carry it 90+ % of the time no matter the season. A good holster will really improve concealment options. And, I should mention my attire 10 months out of the year is shorts and a light shirt. I carry Speer Short Barrel 135gr .357 (-P) in my 340 when it does go with me. It's a fun gun but a bigger steel revolver or SIG is my preference. Everyone should carry what works for themselves.

Nice, lkenl. I've spent a lot of money trying different shoulder rigs, but they don't pull the gun in tightly like the kangaroo. I mean, the kangaroo pulls it right up against ya, tightly. I carried the bulldog forever, but the 340 supplanted it unless I'm out of doors. I've carried several semis, but keep coming back to the Makarov. I know there are higher end pistols and I've had them. I just can't hit as well with them.

BTW, man, speaking of the Makarov - my laser grip finally got here from Moscow today. I quickly installed it and well - let me post some pics. Starting with the envelope. It has Russian writing on it, so I'm keeping it as a souvenir.

But here's the grand prize, right here:

I was more interested in the laser than I was the thumb release, but it came with one.

Now the magazine thumb release is a pretty straight forward concept with this pistol.

Here are my two carry guns. One is 9mm and the other is .22 Mag.

One of my best friend's name is Dr. Slaughter.

Slaughter of Slaughter Grocery?
