I carry my S&W model 66 3" quite a lot.
It's a fine accurate revolver.

I have only carried revolvers.Never an auto....although a glock 26 is calling my name...I carry either my SP101 or my Rossi both in 357(although I generally carry the 135 gr +p's)
"Just because I'm paranoid,doesn't mean they're NOT after me...."
While my BHP is my primary CCW piece, I use a J frame in a paddle holster for a quick throw on ,don't want to be bothered/don't have time to holster up the BHP carry piece.
Or, If I'm going somewhere where I can't carry inside, it fits my glove box with less rearranging (read removal) of the usual contets than the BHP.

Normally its one of my 1911's (S.A. Micro preferred) but i initially bought a Taurus model 85 ultralight 38 for ccw duty.
but as was said it was a "natural progression" of things when i got into the 1911 "scene" for caliber and capacity.
but i do still love my lil snubby. 100% reliable fer sure.

This is mine. That is yours.
Lets keep it that way.
Another primary 642 carrier here. I have found it going with me nearly all the time because of how easily it slips into a pocket.
Reload strips seem to be very hard to come by though, and I refuse to buy a round speedloader, so I am limited to 5 shots. So far, that is 5 more than I have needed thank goodness.
If anyone can PM me a source for speed strips, I would appreciate it dearly.
Well I don't know why need it PMed... looking for this?

Thanks for the link! Just didn't want to junk up the thread with a diversion. All the people I have talked to locally said they had been out of production for 10 years..
I figured I was looking for a Unicorn. Ordering a set now, thanks again.
Naw there still around as Euc posted the Link i have a couple of sets myself
Smith and Wesson Model 37 +P, However with things getting more and more terrible everyday I am really thinking about carrying my 1911 everyday. I don't know. One thing about wheel guns is you have less chance of a failure, so you can bet that whenever you pull the trigger she is going to go bang. However, you do suffer in accuracy if you don't practice.
Listen, Think and React.....Nuff Said.....
Always two, usually three.
For the past several months, a 329PD, a 296, and a 642.
At times the 329PD gives way to a 1911.
Keep the shotgun handy!!
Bianchi makes the speedstrips for sure, they come two per package - think I paid $6 or $10 for mine. I don't know about other sources though. I picked up a Don Hume drop pouch on the 'bay for about $5 (discontinued), no digging reloads outta the pocket.
Speedstrip pouches can be had from Eric Larsen and Matt Del Fatti among others I sure.

About 70% of the time I carry, it is a .357 revolver, usually loaded with either Speer Gold Dot .38+p 135 grain JHP or anyone of a number of brands of .357 125 grain JHP. I have about eight snubbies to choose from (and about twice that in semi-autos), but my most common revolver carry is either a Taurus 651 titanium, Taurus 650 stainless or Ruger SP-101.

I carry a SW 442 most of the time. Lightweight and fits in almost any pocket. Also, in a jacket pocket I can have my hand on the gun in a most unobtrusive manner.
I prefer to carry my 1911's. I just shoot them more accurately but
I have carried my Ruger SP-101 hammerless in .357mag on several occasions and never felt undergunned. I always carry a speedloader as well.
I have a buddy that his only carry is a Stainless Ruger Single Six backed up by a SP-101.
Another friend carries a Colt Detective Special.
The only thing needed for evil to exist is for good men to stand by and do nothing!!!
My primary carry pistol is a glock-29 10mm. I do on occaision carry either a ruger speed six .357 or my m-10 S&W .38. I have two Don Hume holsters for both IWB and OWB that fit both revolvers. I Usually have them loaded with .38+p 158 gn SWHP. I carry these with 2 speed loaders that I keep in my coat pocket that is on the same side i carry the revolvers on . I find the extra weight helps to clear the coat on my draw stroke. Although i now carry a auto these two have become the nightstand guns. I have never felt undergunned with them though.
I carry my Taurus Mdl. 605, CH, SS, .357 and use a Mika's pocket holster. I do enjoy shooting it also. w/ combat grips too.
Some time if I am running out the door, and need a pocket gun, Ruger SP101.
It spend most of its time in my wifes car.

If you don't protect your self, who will?
I carry a 649 J-Frame daily, sometimes I carry one of my semi autos also. I am considering a switch to a 340pd, since it is lighter.
Stephen A. Camp: Where and when did you get that 642 without the malfunctioning internal locking mechanism?
