Don't feel bad. I, too, have restrictions based on family budgetary issues.knotquiteawake wrote:This is really good info. You guys are gonna get me a permanent spot sleeping on the couch because I'm almost certainly going to buy one now (and I've already hit my 1 gun every 6-12 months agreement with the wife. She's not opposed to guns per se, just opposed to me "wasting" money) If I can't keep borrowing this one from my FIL. I mean it IS kind of awkward to be CHLing a gun your Father in Law (who is a cop) is just letting you borrow. I would feel bad if I had to use it and it gets bagged as evidence, and also I certainly wouldn't touch the trigger or make any modifications to it if I didn't OWN it. I'm just hoping maybe he'll let me borrow it until I've got some extra money to buy my own. Especially these summer months.

Re: Test Driving a S&W Airweight
Since folks are talking about their J-frames, mine is a 1973 Model 49 Bodyguard (all-steel, shrouded hammer) which I bought in used, but excellent condition. My hat is off to all of you folks who can shoot those lightweight versions with hot ammo in them. I load Federal Nyclad 125 grain in mine, though I don't carry it all that much, and that is more than potent enough for me.
