My favorite was a Medusa that went away just before the prices skyrocketed, hence no photo. The one revolver that could shoot dang near everything. Needing money can cause poor choices.

Does anyone remember a revolver in an old G&A magazine from the 1970's? That had a revolver that had 3 barrels, a .410, 357/38 and a 22LR? The Medusa jogged my memory a little bit.

Today, subject to change at any given time, my favorite double action for use, is a Toklat 5" Super Redhawk. I have carried it a bunch and become quiet fond of it. Single actions a 4-3/4" Freedom Arms 475 Linebaugh. Though both have stiff competition in 45 Colt and 480 Ruger chamberings.
Lessor intense size, fun guns would be s stainless S&W of some sort, probably of the moon clip variety.

S&W 66, 6" is my favorite walk around gun. I carried this as an LEO. For everyday concealed carry I have a SIG Sauer P938 Rosewood in 9mm.

Klondike Mike,
Great picture of your S&W model 60-4, 3” heavy barrel.
I have one coming in. Can ‘t wait to play with it. I know it will be my favorite, and I’ve never even touched it.

Buttstock; They are the best compromise between power, accuracy and portability. It's definitely most likely to be on my belt when wandering the woods of Maine. Good luck with yours; Mike

I love fixed-sight Colt DAs from the New Service through the skinny barrel Detective Specials & Official Police, right on through the Lawman series.

Absolute easy no contest favorite is a Colt SAA 45 firing 260 gr cast lead bullets at 966 fps I cast and lubed with Sharpsguys homemade black powder lube over 40 grs FFFG Black powder, is it dirty? kinda, is it fun, accurate, shoots to the sights, doesn't lead the bore, and historically correct, hell yes times five!  Oh, and one i'll never own, that damn big color cased 500 single action revolver Whitworth has with the beautiful grips.
Trump Won!

![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/bpJOXEv.jpg) My favorite I guess. Custom Couger, Python barrel on a Ruger Security Six, built by Bill Davis. Had it since the mid 70's.

This old Smith is stupid accurate and just feels right in the hand. Almost a subtle Bisely like grip. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/lwCfZ4M.jpg) Nice. Is that a .32 Long or a .22? .22

This Jim Stroh built 5" 45 Colt is another favorite. It started life as an earlier M29-2. Dead tight, twin locking balls, line bored, Taylor throated... Stupid accurate. ![[Linked Image]](https://beta-static.photobucket.com/images/aa437/boxhead61/Stroh45019.jpg)
