Fellas...While I am obviously not new to target sports or firearms in general (30 gun safe has reached its "capacity") What I will have tommorrow is my first revolver..Yeah..I know..I guess I was just to young of mind, or flat stupid all these years, but I never saw a need to own a revolver. Well..that has changed and I am head over heals for the cylinder now. Tommorrow I pick up a supposedly unfired new in box "old stock" pinned barrel model 37 airweight..yes picks will follow. I may have overpayed, but it was absoloutely beautiful 99.99% with only a microscopic cylinder line, and for my first snubbie, I didn't want anything with the "lock"..Ok so short story long..I have an ammo related question. I read that in no way should I be using +P loads thru this little fella, old model airweight and all. So my question is....is that to say I should not be feeding it +P at the range..because of excessive wear..or I should NEVER..EVER even fire 1 +P round thru it EVER. Biggest reason I ask, is because it WILL be carried, and I would like to throw 5 rounds of the best self defense ammo I can get in it (clearly)...and in every case, it looks like that is a +P load.
If the answer is NO NEVER..then might someone suggest a non +P load I can feel a bit more comfy with.
In addition, any other comments, on the pistol itself, ammo, and of course choice of grips, and leather would be aprish
Thanks guys
