well i am looking into buying a revolver for ccw. i currently have a glock 26 but after seeing my step sisters taurus i was impressed about how easy it is to conceal. i think she has the 85 ultra light with the hammer not ported, unfortunately i did not get to shot it. now for my self i was thinking something more in the way of a .357. i was also informed that .357's can shoot .38's if so are they as accurate and why would anyone buy a regualr .38? now am thinking about the m617 since i would have 7 bullets, i am used to at least 10 in my glock so 7 sounds better to me then 5. now i hear that the .357 is a powerful bullet and if this is the case should i get multialloy/total titanium that weights 16oz or stainless that weight 29 oz, which metal would last longer? another thing i am thinking about is getting it ported. at first i was going to get a 19c but then i was told buy a few people if i have to shoot at night i will see a big flash and since its only a 9mm i just went with the 26. now since the revolver has a 2" barrel i am sure there is going to a be a lot of flash anyway so would porting do me any harm, and i would look into getting low flash defense bullets. also i would be getting hammerless since i intend on keeping it in my front pocket and i wouldn't want it to snag.
