Rossi/Tarus makes fine revolvers, especially considering the price. However, I see no reason to go cheap on something you are likely to have for the rest of your life. Smith and Wessson's 8 shot .357 is probably what I'd want in that caliber.

We have a Python, it's extremely smooth and accurate. It was probably not inexpensive.

I sometimes feel like the only person on the forum that doesn't hunt or own a gun.

I don't hunt or own a gun. I have shot plenty of guns, just never owned one. I probably will someday. However I have no interest in hunting.

Funny story comes to mind when a .357 mag is mentioned.

I was 2, sleeping at 8 pm, and there is a shootout two houses down between drug cartels, one of them columbian cartel records, an old rap label that im sure none of you have heard of.

Story behind the shootout is someone hihg up in the label's ranks was messing with this one guys girl from the other drug cartel. The second drug cartel plans to run up on the guy from the first cartel, guy gets wind of the attack, he has a few friends come over to is house, strapped and ready shoot, obviously. The second drug cartel people(4) run in and are met with 6 people guns and firing before the first guy could get his gun up to shoot.

Back to my house: Im in my bed/crib, still asleep, and my mom is right beside me, .357 aimed and ready for anyone to come in(if you were to take a left the door of my room is at the end of a 5 foot long hallway), while my dad is in the living room(to the right of the front door) with a pump 12 guage keeping an eye on both doors(because he could see the front and back door from where he was)

I think it ended with 5 people dead and 2 in custody.

And since I feel like sharing, one fo the guys that were shot managed to crawl/walk into our back yard, screeming in pain because he had been shot in his femral artery. My dad walked to the back window, opned it up, the guy told him he had been shot, and my dad let him know that if he came any closer he was gonna get shot again.

And then other randomly awesome things happened, but i need to go now.

I also slept through the whole thing, proving me = gangsta.

Anyway, back to .357's

So did my wife. She shot a stalker in the leg, she was aiming for the family jewels but the lil shub nose .25 at 30 feet is a lil inaccurate, and I am sure she was shaking.

I own 3 rifles and try not to get her too mad.
