Thread 64368615

J frame owners im deciding on a wheel gun and looking at this one or a 638.

What j frame do you enjoy?

360j with .38 wad cutters

>>64368615 (OP)
The K6S DC. All K6S have a sixth round.

>>64368615 (OP)
632.
I'll take 6 rounds of 32 H&R magnum over 5 slightly more powerful 38 specials any day of the week. Either one is underpowered, just poking holes. I'll have the extra round.

>>64369250
Those sights look like they snag like a motherfucker

>>64369263
>those sights
That's one of the things that makes it the best J frame, it has actual sights instead of a groove.

>>64368615 (OP)
640 pro OR OR ORRRRRR
>>64369250
The ever elusive 632-2, good luck finding one though

I almost bought the 640 before the Kimber. Now I see they have a 640 Black, essentially copying the DC. But the Kimber has a sixth round so Im happy.

>>64369285
J frames are bad breath guns though

>>64369263
they don't and you're a retard stop pretending you know anything about guns

>>64369407
Imagine getting this angry online

>>64369250
I wish they made a 5-round .32.

>>64369467
They do. But its also a 6-round.

>>64368615 (OP)
Wife carries a 642 and she likes it well enough.
Stupid fucking laser though.

>>64368615 (OP)
I have a 642 and it works fine. I don't think J-frames are fun though, it's just easy to conceal. I had a 686 for awhile and it was tons of fun.

>>64369387
They don't have to be

>>64370489
Wheres the can?

>>64370489
Then make a reliable lower profile dot to mount on it, that thing looks retarded and is bulky as hell. May as well carry a full size at that point.

>>64370489
>>64370998
A barrel that short means you are not concerned with accuracy beyond a few feet. Red dot is pointless. Though picrel is clearly a larp.

>>64369568
They are spooning. Cute.

The 442 and 432 look good.

>>64368615 (OP)
I got a 442 air weight and while I love it I wish I got the 327 pug instead

Zoomer faggot can't focus for a YouTube video lmao

>>64369568
I have a 642 Talo. Love it

Thanks for the insights guys.
I went with the 642 pro, no lock
I got my wife the vanilla 642 a coupke weeks ago and fell in love instantly. I just need something to point and shoot close range, this gun isn't for range antics, its for dry firing all day,deep conceal and maybe actually saving your life.

>>64373539
is that faggot ever going to finish developing that or am i going to have to pay someone else to figure it out?

>>64369263
how would sights snag being drawn upwards?

>>64373346
>I wish I got the 327 pug instead

they're like 1500 dollars on a good day.

Form over functions
Im retarded and would fumble a safety
Decockers are cool too though

You're a retard, a longer barrel is not more accurate, all things being equal the longer a barrel the more accuracy is negatively affected by barrel harmonics.

The reason you think short barrels are less accurate is because of shorter sight radius, which is not a problem with a red dot.

>>64374214
Apparently the guy lost the sight for 2 years and randomly found it again 2 months ago. Now it's in-progress again with Hamre Forge.

Homo style reply.

>>64374745
> barrel harmonics
Just stop. Listen to yourself arguing for a dot on a snubbie. I bet you convince yourself of wild bullshit all the time.

>>64375128
I'm arguing against the idea that a short barrel is somehow inherently inaccurate, a 1.5 inch snubby is mechanically accurate enough to make hits to 100m, the limiting factor is the shooter.

A red dot might enable the shooter to be more accurate if he doesn't have to line up small and shitty sights, but maybe better iron sights would be just as good

>appeal to simplicity

boo

>>64374222
Totally worth it. 8 shots of 357. You can throw 38 in also. Plus it's performance center. Crispy trigger and nice finish. I love mine.

>>64370489
Defeats the purpose of a J frame and you'd look very try hard using this

>>64375513
>you'd look very try hard

whats wrong with being a tryhard about self defense?

>>64375116
could no one scrape together $200 to buy a sight to push this forward for fucking YEARS? what a tragedy. at least it's going to happen now, maybe

>>64373817
>he cant into super duper low res hyper compressed webms
I bet you couldnt even make a gif of an entire 2 hour movie, faggot

>>64368615 (OP)
I have a 638 with a lock, but I deactivated it. It still looks like normal. I reinstalled all the parts and there is no aftermarket plug, I just had to hit it with the die grinder to flatten the locking mechanism so it will be unlocked in both positions

I have had to use it and it worked

I might switch to a 340 pd, I like the single action option on the 638, but i have become so good with the double action trigger that i dont feel like im any more accurate

That's one of many things I love about the Talo: No Hilary hole and PC.
Also, it has a great, one of a kind grip.
