Does any reputable company make a a 38 snub between 2 and 3 inches, maybe 2.5" ?
I find that I want more barrel than a 642, but the 3" versions like the Taurus 856 are a wee bit long. is there a 2.5" SP101? |

Colt does the night cobra which is hot and then they did a retro one with a gold bead and looking like an older generation one that I like a lot. Or buy a used 2" m10 |

No. 3” is not a snubbie. It is the sweet spot for a .357 carry gun, though.

Quote HistoryQuoted: No. 3” is not a snubbie. It is the sweet spot for a .357 carry gun, though. I think 3" is still a snubbie. You can still carry one in your coat pocket. 4", even 3.5", is gonna be too long for that. I'd love to have 3" barrels on all the .38s & 9mm revolvers in the house. And a 3" for the Dan Wesson. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Do you think the '23 might catch up to the '05 after a few hundred/thousand fires and dry fires? Yea, but I suspect, with with the ‘05 being previously owned, it had springs swapped, or the action worked. I’ve had numerous SPs and none ever felt this way without some help. The ‘23 will also get a home action job and springs. But that older one is nice- and I know this is sacrilege, but S&W nice. |

Here's a 686-4 and a chopped & modified 64. I'm not sure the 64 counts as a snubbie, but I like it.
 Attached File637 & 36. The 637 has one of the best triggers I've ever felt in a revolver.  Attached FileM&P 340 & 940. The 340 is a 9mm conversion and has the other best trigger I've ever felt in a revolver...it and the 637 have Apex springs and were smoothed out by a local gunsmith.  Attached File |
