[QUOTE="Hawgman, post: 1283979, member: 7676"] As someone who not only owns these two guns but uses them I couldn't agree more. You can't just look at the specs on paper or handle them at a gun store and declare they are "close enough" to be interchangeable. It's like saying a snub-nosed airweight j-frame is the same as an all steel 3" .357 j-frame. Try them both in thin material dress slacks. The once or twice a week I wear dress slacks/shirt, IWB is out of the question and I can NOT risk being made. Tried a "down deep" IWB...no way. Pocket carry is much quicker. As far as ankle carry it's to each their own. If someone is rushing up on me the last thing I want to do is drop to one knee or stand on one foot. The bad guy isn't always going to stand 7 yards away and wait. That's just my opinion. Carry is allways going to include compromises. Each of us just have to do what we think is best and live with it. [/QUOTE]
