Such a wonderful round and yet the young generation is so unfamiliar that they are wondering why anyone would want a 38 Special.

How sad, how sad. Surely I have lived too long…

A 38 Special is still hanging on the pocket pistol arena. I have shot 357 snubbies and the recoil and blast are too much for me. The 38 Special provides the most power you can control in the smallest useful package, at least in my opinion.



The beat up, security guard M10 is wonderfully accurate. It is the only revolver that I have consistently hit my 50 yard 12” gong target double action with all six rounds. Single action is crisp. I can shoot this without developing any sort of flinch.



The 38 Special was and is a very accurate round, some of the finest revolvers ever made chambered it, and it is seldom that I don’t start off a shooting session with a 38 Special. To get the hand/eye coordination working again.
