When you really want to screw the bad guy

Probably, some just like what they like an try to sell it. Guess thats why there is more than 1 kind of firearm..that would be boring conversation then.

It's not the firearm @cedartop is referring to when he said "new kettle of fish". It was your method of carry.

It does look that way. I believe they are an alternative to hollow point, which would be particularly useful in NJ if they haven't also banned the Honeybadger. Thought I read in NJ one can carry hollow point so long as they are the ones with the hollow filled from the factory. I have seen those, I think Hornady makes some like that. Nonetheless, if anyone lives in NJ they have worse problems than not being allowed to carry HP.

The head looks too flat, I think it's a Robinson but. Maybe Pozidrive.

I just moved over from carrying a gen5 19 w/ 15+1 to a 340 pd 5 shot. I was concerned at first losing ammo capacity. I have added 2 speed strips (5 rounds per strip) to my edc w/ the 340pd and back to 15 rounds. I have a hard time now of wanting to carry the 19 due to this setup. 5-holer all day now.

Too bad MrMiller21 is already gone, I wanted to hear his wisdom on this topic.

Wow, that looks vicious. Only in .357 Magnum, but similar in .40 S&W and 10mm. At first I thought you were joking and had taken a file to one, that's what it looks like.

I wonder what ballistic gel looks like with one of those hitting it?

I completely agree with the thread title....My 5 Shot Snubbies are good enough for me anyway....they have served me well for many years and continue to do so daily....
