All You Really Need: A S&W J-Frame Revolver for CCW

[GlockCop]

Back in the day when Dinosaurs roamed the earth and everyone had revolvers a J frame may have made some sense. Why burden yourself with a slow to reload 5 shot revolver? A G-26 is about the same size...holds twice as many more effective rounds and reloads a hell of a lot faster. Also turds travel in packs now more than ever. Id rather have more ammunition than not enough.

I like the logic presented in this statement. Perhaps the little J-Frame; which I have for so long revered; has seen it's day?

Oh hell no! I'm going to continue carrying mine.

And we go full circle. The dang thing's just so easy to slip in a pocket for a quick trip down to the local Stop-N-Rob.[Broken External Image]

Well each to his own. When I first started we were issued the S&W 681. I couldnt wait until we switched to semi-autos. I dont know of any cops that carry a revolver anymore. And I dont know of any that carry one as a BUG. You might try a G26 or similar semi auto compact. You might like it. You can shoot mine sometime if ewe can all get together and have a fun day at hh like we did earler in the year.

But Glocks are ugly.

They were still carrying revolvers when you started with the OHP? That kind of surprises me.

So what's the verdict? Did the J-Frame do the job as intended or do you think she needed "more gun?"

This was a home defense situation? Something like a 12-gauge 870 with 00 buck should have been the weapon of choice. One round could've put three or four more pellets into the perp. Otherwise, the J-Frame did its job... kind of... that one time.

I think to be safe you will need a full auto bazooka with a flame thrower attachment.

I think this will work.
