On the rare occasions that I do carry it's either a Taurus CH85 loaded with +P or a Ruger SP 101 in .32 Mag. If I didn't have a dislike for IWB holsters I would carry any one my S&W 2" N frames in 10MM, 41 Mag and 45 ACP.

Unlike many I favor a 34-36 ounce 2 3/4"-3" 357/38spl because I don't mind the weight, I shoot them better and range trips are fun/painless even with 357s. Speed Six 2 3/4" & GP100 3" fixed sights work for me as well SP101 2.25" in 357. In 38spl, Model 64-5 3" IWB is perfect.

I got my wife a Ruger LCR 38 for her birthday.....

She said she liked it so much more than the wood chipper I got on our 14th anniversary......

..... I believe 25th is Silver and 50th is Gold..... that makes 14th Wood Chipper.... at least at my house

( I got a lot of comments on Facegram about it.... some people have no sense of humor )

After about 15 years of carrying concealed, I've basically decided that an SP101 is the largest revolver that's convenient as an EDC and at that, mostly OWB with maybe some IWB carry in a certain pair of shorts that are big in the waist

My Glock 42 and NAA Pug have been invaluable summer carry guns.

I carried my 3" GP100 today in a Hunter OWB holster, it rides nice and sits nice and low , but I'm basically carrying a police service revolver as a CC gun and it is very hard to hide

It's all a compromise

I tried briefly carrying a SP. To me, you may as well carry a Speed Six cause it's not much larger or heavier.

Since the SP is 5 shot, it's way more convenient to me to carry an LCR. If I only have 5 shots, it may as well be the smallest lightest Ruger I can find.
