I've been told that ported .357 snubbies are dangerous due to the blast if the gun is anywhere near a body part. Is this true?[/quote]
I had my Taurus M605 .357 snub factory ported due to the fact that the damn thing BIT me!!!!!
Shooting full house .357 loads, (why else would you want a .357)the recoil chewed up the webbing of my shooting hand so bad that I had to end the session, to go home to get patched up!!!
Now that it is ported, I have been shooting it safely with absolutely no problems for some time now. I have no problem with carrying it, or using it.

Just as there is no such thing as too much fun,
there is no such thing as owning just one gun!!!
Off my meds (quit smoking), armed to the teeth, and loose on an unsuspecting society!!!
