I have that same holster to fit 3" GP100. Excellent choice.Don Hume
There are good reasons, I think.I've never understood why anyone would choose a 38 special only gun (like the Smith model 15 and 67)
Over the same basic frame size in 357 mag.Smith mod 19,66,686.

I started carrying the Service-Six 4" on-duty in 1976. It's still a very fine revolver. A little over a year ago, I came across a stainless Speed-Six 2.5" and snatched it up as quickly as I could. I've replaced the springs in my Service-Six, and most recently bought a second hammer for the Speed-Six to cut the thumb tang off of one of them, yet still be able to move it back to original if I want. Numerich still seems to have lots of parts for the Rugers. We have a S&W 19, that's as close as I get to shooting a 15. I like them all, but I've got more Rugers than anything e
This! X100My least favorite is my SP101, it's too big for what it is.
I have owned several examples of both. In all honesty, the Model 15 is likely to out group either Ruger offering almost every time.Wondering how the overall accuracy and quality of the Ruger Six Series and SP101 is compared to a S&W model 15.. yes I know this is a Ruger forum. But haven't found a comparison forum Answer in my search online
Same here, for that matter as a reloader I don't get why anyone would want to have both .357 AND .38 special brass to consume valuable storage space.I've never understood why anyone would choose a 38 special only gun (like the Smith model 15 and 67)

I'd have to agree. Just add 2" to the M-15 and you have the M-14 K-38, renowned for it's accuracy.I have owned several examples of both. In all honesty, the Model 15 is likely to out group either Ruger offering almost every time.
Wife prefers the 38 Spl.. I prefer the 357. Same dies (with a washer), same shell holder.Same here, for that matter as a reloader I don't get why anyone would want to have both .357 AND .38 special brass to consume valuable storage space.
I've asked myself the same question many times. When I joined the USAF in 1975 I was in the Security Police. We were issued the Model 15 pistol and 18 rounds of .38 special military ball ammo for duty.I've never understood why anyone would choose a 38 special only gun (like the Smith model 15 and 67)

Because of this …..I've never understood why anyone would choose a 38 special only gun……

I remember the days when my garage looked like that... Was it that long ago? 1980 maybe?My rationale for having both .357m and .38 (and .44 m, .44spc) is in an earlier post. As to space, where there's a will, there's a way.
