Seriously, nice Taurus, there good gunsSo following my decision not to purchase the RIA 1911 I still took my Glock to have the owner of the LGS give me a idea on what it was worth used, yes even though it had only about 80 rounds through it I understand it’s considered a used gun. He was quick to give me what I thought was a more than fair price and while we were discussing guns in general I noticed something in the gun case that caught my eye. View attachment 22789We talked a little about the Taurus.
M605 357 Magnum 2” barrel.
We came to an agreement, the Glock and SafariLand holster for the Taurus and 3 50 round boxes of 38 special.
He didn’t have any 357 Magnum.
No money changed hands.
I have a new Revolver.
So is mine and my brothers. 357 is hard to find but I have come across some at my local Academy from time to time. I just keep checking on a regular basis and pick up a couple boxes when they show up.My new Taurus is a 357 magnum pistol.
Unfortunately 357 Ammo is like unicorns.
Thank you Annihilator I’m happy with it.Seriously, nice Taurus, there good guns
What model is your dad's S&W 38? It looks like it could be a Model 10 -5.I am happy at the way it turned out,
I didn’t shoot my dads S&W 38 very often but enjoyed it when I did. Now I can retire it.

The revolver experts on the forum told me where to look to figure that out.What model is your dad's S&W 38? It looks like it could be a Model 10 -5
Nice looking pistol. I have a Ruger 101 and I shoot the +P ammo. With the short barrel I don't believe you get the full effect of the .357 and the +P gives better accuracy, and your hand won't hurt as much. Your Model 12 was the original airweight with an interest history. That's why you should never shoot anything but plain old .38 Spec. Take good care of it, it's a nice revolver to have.Ammo… .357

That’s a lot of medals @10mmLife has, did win them shooting his yeet cannons?
I admire those that can take game with a pistol close in. My revolvers are for “oh crap” moments with hogs.Congrats. Not a big fan of Taurus semi autos but this model 44 Taurus in 8.5" has been rock solid for over 30 years.
Agreed. A true hand cannon with a barrel like that.I admire those that can take game with a pistol close in. My revolvers are for “oh crap” moments with hogs.
Special place to not use a rifle or shotgun slug and take a deer with a revolver
