Perfect carry revolver?

[Alan]

What’s your go-to carry revolver and what makes it the perfect choice for you? I’m eager to hear from those of you who carry wheelguns on a daily basis about your real-world experiences and what you find works best.

My Taurus 856 .38 Special is my carry choice. 6 rounds and light enough for inside-the-waistband at 4 o'clock. I load 125 grain hollow points for balanced power and control. What about you?

I daily carry an air weight j frame in 38 +p. Crossdraw holster. 17 oz's with 5 +p rounds. Put the Wilson Combat spring set. DA is still over 10lbs but single is very light. To light for the untrained. Normally carried for 4 legged threats in a less than lethal condition. When working have 2 speed loaders with plus p for backup. XDE in 45 as primary. My wife has always carried an 357 SP 101.

Mine's a Colt King Cobra Carry chambered in .357 Magnum. The trigger feels so smooth, and you can really tell the build quality is top-notch. It handles .357 loads better than most of the compact revolvers I’ve tested. It’s just a joy to shoot.

My favorite has to be the Ruger LCR in .357. It’s super lightweight, which is such a plus, plus the trigger is really smooth. I typically load it with .38 Special +P rounds, keeps the recoil pretty manageable while still packing a punch. What I love most, though, is how straightforward and dependable it is. No messing around with external safeties, it's just point and shoot if I ever need to.
