Both great, would prefer a SA/DA with a hammer tho

Those “humpbacks” have thumb functioning hammers - they are just shrouded on the side of the frame.

Here’s a good deal for a Colt Cobra .38 Special - $669.99 with $100 rebate:

Anyone have experience with the RIX Storm S6?

Looking for a solid platform to hunt hogs at distance, and owner of the local is trying to sway my that direction.

I dont know anything about them. I run an AGM Rattler. They’re solid.

Don’t buy into the “600 yard” hype or whatever on thermals. This is a sub 200 yard game for the most part.

384 minimum. 640 preferred. I have a 35-384.

Yeah the flex on long distance is mostly spotting and Hail Marys… fully expect most engagements sub 200.

I was also looking at the Rattler but shop owner thinks this is better value.

It may be, I just don’t know.

There are only about 4-5 brands I would entertain owing but this isnt necessarily my wheelhouse knowledge wise.

If you want to talk DS1911’s, nobody moves more of those in the country than I do.

I have a very specific reason for needing to carry occasionally and I would rather do it with a revolver but my Governor is too big and showy. 
@Armybrat what’s your favorite snubnose these days? I’m trying to make up my mind between a Ruger LCR in 327 Magnum, a 357 King Cobra 3” (not exactly snub), and a Taurus 605.

Don’t limit yourself to the above. I’m only gonna get one snubnose, what would you pick and why?

Taurus products are absolute garbage.

My wife is a wheel gun girl. She hates semi autos. She carries a .44 mag in the woods, but in town she carries a stainless S&W model 60 chief’s special.

She loves it and can change you from a rooster to a hen in one shot.

That’s a fantastic suggestion.

I've been researching revolvers and the reviews I've read from recent years is that they are great for the money.  Most negative comments reference Taurus' quality control from the 1970's and 80's.  I ended up buying the 605 and the build is solid.  It's a good value shooter.
