My long deceased uncle carried a Detective Special under his fat belly. I'd love to find one dirt cheap but even dirt cheap can be pricy when it comes to those Colts!
I have a Ruger Security Six in 9mm with a 2 3/8" barrel. I carried it concealed for about 30 years, until I bought my Glock 19, and still find myself packing it every once in a while. It uses half-moon clips and I just drop 4 in my pocket when I carry. I've never seen another Ruger 9mm revolver but mine.

Pics or it didn't happen. This thread is so we can all look at gun porn!

After 42+ years of shooting I find myself using my snubbies more often than anything else. Had one too many reliable semi autos not fire at times. Too much to go wrong from springs, extractors, lubrication, mags, ammo, limp wresting, etc.. I can put my snubbie in a drawer and it will fire 20 years later.
I don't have a picture but I do have a snubbie that I carried for about 30 years. It's a Ruger Stainless Speed Six in 9mm that I bought in 1973 and it uses half-moon clips. I still have the original Bianchi pistol-pocket that I bought and carry it at times and I just drop a few clips in my pocket and I'm on my way.
