[QUOTE="MadDogs, post: 2865784, member: 11175"] If you like the idea of a revolver for the pocket, the Ruger LCR can be had in 38 Sp, 357 Mag [I]and[/I] 9mm. The LCR in also available in 327 Federal ... which is an interesting round ... and it holds six rounds. I have a S&W TALO 637. This gun has S&W's Performance Center's "enhanced action" and it is very smooth with a really nice trigger right out of the box. I wanted the wheel gun over the auto (Glock 43) for the usual reasons. Abject reliability, no new mags to buy and that should I ever have to pocket the weapon without a holster I can without the fear of blowing my wife's favorite nads off. The S&W 637 does have a hammer and IF I could have chosen, I would have bought the S&W638 with the shroud. That said, I have no issues in how I carry getting the hammer "snagged" when drawing. I have shot my late father's 1957 Colt Detective Special quite a bit so having the hammer is not an issue for me. Snubbies take a lot of practice. Should I ever have to use mine I am confident that I can hit the target before the crap coming down my pant leg distracts me. Need to add ... when I first got mine, I went to the range. Nice shooting gun. Great point and shoot gun and shooting at the typical 5/10 yard range it is not hard to draw and put rounds on target. So channeling my inner Jerry Miculek, I back a fresh target out to 20 yards. Line up and shoot (single action) aiming at the X-ring in the center of the chest on the silhouette. Pull the target back in and the shot was right between the eyes of the silhouette. Some guy walking by gives me a thumbs up. [/QUOTE]
