Definitely a keeper.

Just picked up the exact model last evening. Can’t wait to shoot it Monday!

Mackay are those your wadcutters in the pics? BTW, thanks for your contribution to the cause on getting this model off and running. I’ll be ordering some of your wadcutters to get me started while I await my reloading dies!

I have not had a small revolver since my brother “borrowed” my SP 101 about 20 years ago. Been thinking lately that, for no good reason, I need a .38 pocket revolver.

The guns in question are a 2” 36, a 2” 60 and a 3” 60.

Thoughts??

For pocket carry in .38 caliber I love my S&W 340PD .357mag loaded with 38spl.+P, 12oz loaded is very comfortable.

Yes,

I use nothing but the 100 grain poly-coat wadcutters during the course of shooting the last 500 + rounds through this UC J Frame.

One really notable thing is just how clean this gun is. If this had been standard soft lead, or even hardcast, the odds of getting to 500 rounds without cleaning are very slim. Revolvers are reliable, but simply not that durable when it comes to maintenance and high volume shooting. Most the time one would have broken out a brush long ago and had been scrubbing the gun to make sure it would function properly, but in the case of the poly coated ammo, it simply has not been needed.

I doubt I will get to 1000 rounds, especially since I carry since I carry this gun for defense purposes in my pocket, but as it stands, the gun runs perfectly even though it has had all those rounds through it.

I really need you to quit posting this photo. It is going to cost me a lot of money eventually….

Years ago I had a 3" Model 60... I found it a bit much weight wise for pocket carry.

YMMV,
