Small frames are fine with "specials". Kick like the devil with magnums.
I'd like to know people's opinions on small vs. medium frame Taurus revolvers as far as shootability goes. My wife had the .45/.410 revolver, which was fun, but stung a bit when loaded with cor-bon ammo. My neighbor has a .44 Mag Tracker which I can't shoot for beans, plus the recoil takes some getting used to. My buddy has a Raging Bull 81/2" .44 Mag which shoots better for me and stings less. What I haven't tried is a small frame or non-ported medium frame. I think the model 85 looks like it might be fun plus easy to hide in the house for easy access. Is it too light for a fun gun/plinker in addition to doing HD or concealed duty? How about a model 66? Too big to hide? Good shooter?

Different dress for different occasions. Guess you wont be choosing magnum 44-6" if you're after for concealment purposes. Would you? In my opinion...i prefer 38 special CIA.![]()
