Amazing discussion of stubbies over at P&S. Even if you are deep in snubby lore you will learn something

Whenever I spend times with Rob Garrett, it always involved BBQ and snubby revolvers talk.
The 2” mod 12, .38, alloy “K” frame has always been my favorite Snubby.
The ideal combination of size, weight, “shootability” and 6 rounds. A dandy Winter, “Pocket Gun”.

I will be at Revolver Roundup in a few weeks. I have made every one of them since they started in Dallas 10 years ago.
Those guys know revolvers. Mark Fricke and Bryan Eastridge are on the staff for the event.
Man, I need to post pictures of the 1911 MEU(SOC) pistol Bryan built for me. It's perfect. I handed it to Justin Dyal (Marine Raider LtCol retired) last weekend, and he said Bryan nailed it.
And you know what Justin uses to practice his trigger press? S&W K-frame revolvers.
You want to get good with a striker-fired semi-auto? Pick up a double-action revolver.
I have been running a Ruger 327 LCR for a while, and it's nice. Six rounds, carries well, and is a sweetheart with the newest Hamre Forge grips.
I love those! I have a RB and a SB 2" Model 12, both are pound puppies. Look a bit street worn, but wonderful to carry and shoot. Carries like a J-frame, shoots like a K-frame.
If Smith would reintroduce a 3" RB Model 12 with a bobbed DAO hammer and no lock, they would sell everyone of them they could build. Just look at how much a 3" RB Model 64 goes for. I have three of them, and they are averaging $800 each right now on Gunbroker.
A 3" heavy barrel RB Model 10-8 goes for a grand right now. A 2" RB Model 10-8 goes for $2,200 to $2,500 if you can find one. I am scared to shoot mine, it's basically irreplaceable.
Their Snubby/Revolver episodes are some of my favorites. There are a few they’ve put out over the last few years.
Yes. There was a time when Double Action Revo’s were all one shot in PPC and NRA Action Pistol.
That definitely increased your level of proficiency with Auto Loaders. Sight Picture, Trigger Control. Focus.
