Or the ability to make ammo when the store shelves are bare..... I will admit I was a bit foolish not getting the convertible .357/9mm I thought I wanted, settling for a standard .357 (at a really good price) and before I got a serious jones for a non-semi auto 9mm, I got a 9mm Luger barrel for my Contender, and problem solved. I don't think I would ever bother with a DA 9mm Luger revolver, I don't see the point to a 9mm Luger only revolver. But, that's just me.

IME the auto cartridges have appeared to be less accurate when fired in both a 357/9 and 45 Auto/45 Colt. I always suspected the long bullet jump of the auto cartridges might be a factor.
I shoot handloads almost exclusively so I load them with 357 and 45 Colt. Cost difference of plinking handloads between the respective auto and revolver rounds is very little. |

Shooting a "man sized target" at the pelvic area, bit of a move.
