No, no: in this case PoI is the Pendulum of Indecision which has started to swing.
The reason is that I saw, today, the secondhand Astra .38Spl NC-6 revolver that I'd referred to in my thread about IWB carry for a 4" revolver.
It is very nice, very tight and with a very nice blue finish. Lock up is good and utterly rigid if the hammer has just fallen and the trigger still pulled back. The trigger pull is seamless.
In other words I like it a lot.
Am I considering it? Heck, yes. So why the indecision?
Well, things I like:
The trigger: better than my current Astra .38 snub
The finish: better than my current Astra .38 snub
The lock-up: marginally better than my current Astra .38 snub
The sight radius: better than my current Astra .38 snub
What don't I like?
The fact that I would have to sell one gun (my snub) to buy it: with my safe that's a legal fact.
The fact that I am unsure if I will find a comfortable means of IWB carry that I can have confidence in; something I can't find out before it's mine.
Hence my PoI...
Not really asking a question. Just voicing my thoughts but feel free to voice yours!!
