Sold my 3" GP yesterday. Didn't carry it anymore (bought it as a first gun for carry, but the thing is just as big as a fullsize Glock22 or P89, while being thicker and heavier) and the 3" barrel with fixed sights is no good for range use.
Will use the money to get a G27 for summer carry, but someday later I'll be looking for a new revolver. This time a long-barreled one. Not sure which should I choose (of course if even I end up having enough money). I planned GP100 6", but I've heard many times it's sort of barrel-heavy, unballanced and some people who love the 3" or 4" model just hate this one. What other .357s would you recommend?
Wouldn't mind upgrading to a bigger caliber revolver either, such as .44Magnum. Redhawk looks great, SW629 as well. How do these two compare in quality and accuracy?
Also might plan to buy a lever gun in the future, would be nice to have the same caliber for both. I know there are .357 lever-actions, but a friend who had one told me the thin .357 rounds are quite uncomfortable to load. Any opinion on that?
Thanks
