[QUOTE="Brandi, post: 2408885, member: 24446"] Since your dad is a gun guy talk him into getting TWO! I gotta say that pic of you with Mas makes me jealous, I'm a huge fan of him! I said it before and I'll repeat it again, the S&W locks aren't an issue, anyone who passes on a great gun because it has a lock is kicking themselves in the head. They may have had issues early on but I've yet to see anyone I know have a problem and that issue is a non-issue these days. I can't count how many shots have gone through my S&W 629 V-Comp .44 magnum and not a single issue, that's all full power .44 magnum ammo. If that lock was a problem it would have already gone and the only time I even remember it has a tiny lock hole in it is when someone says "I'd love to have one of those but I won't buy a gun with a lock". Wow, way the screw yourself. Why would someone deny themselves something they really want because of something that is cosmetic and so small you will forget it's there unless you obsess over it. That said...I still recommend the GP100 (the Wiley Clapp is a super sweet 3" special edition-only 2000 being made so not a lot of time to get one left) or a S&W. S&W has a fantastic number of models to choose from and if you can swing a Performance Center model you will LOVE them. You just can't go wrong with either. I still don't recommend Taurus because they are inconsistent quality and getting a good one is a crapshoot. The Taurus Judge is one of the worst guns made and should probably come with a return label in the box. Here's my S&W 629 V-Comp Performance Center .44 magnum... the little lock hole isn't an issue, plus you can have them plugged.
