When I do carry it is an Astra 680 (.38Spl 6-shot). The biggest advantage of a snub over here is the condition 3 carry rule for auto-loaders. Most here still go for semi-autos and may or may not flaunt that part of the carry law: I don't know. However, I don't want to.
I've read the 680 is a S&W clone. The trigger would certain lend weight to that statement. It's the best one in my collection, especially in SA.
I carry it IWB in a Galco Soft-Tuk that may dad managed to find for me when he was over states-side. I recently bought a pack of speed-strips for it, although I have not really practiced enough with them.
(I really need to practice more....
)
When out in the forest, I also carry a 6-shot. A 4" Redhawk. Not quite a snub, though...
