In my .38/.357 Magnums collection I have seven revolvers
Taurus 65 4",66 4",& 605 Snuby
Ruger SP 101 3", GP 100 4.2"Match Champion.
S&W 686-3 4.2"
EAA .38/.357 4"
Look at it this way. If you are going to only have one, that pretty much is the .357 Magnum revolver that set the standard other companies strive to beat.
IOW, if 7 guys break into your house with ill intent, and you are able to stop 6 of them with well placed shots, you could beat #7 senseless with it, and never come close to hurting that revolver while doing so.
I'm pretty sure I posted on thos one before, so i'll put it this way. Less than I want, but more than I need.

I literally hate forum threads like this one, which seem to try to get an inventory of people's possessions. Who knows who is listening and watching???
Like I said in another thread no one around where I live knows that I have firearms and the ones who know (forum and range members) don't know where I live. I know technology can find a lot of things but they can't pull your addy out of their @ yet... at least I don't think so Which is why I don't mind posting pictures, being from the worst province in Canada who would go through all the trouble of coming here for what I have even if they knew lol.
Edit: look at it this way, from what I can see it's a lot less trouble to steal a truck and ram a gun store at night than it is trying to rob a residence where you know the owner is armed
I only have One 357/38 in my collection!
My First Duty Gun! When I fist began law enforcement as a young Deputy Sheriff in Indiana!
It is a Smith and Wesson N Frame Model 27 5" Barrel 357 Magnum.
Paid $225 for Her and can hardly believe the value today. Of course back then $225 was a lot of money compared to the weekly law enforcement pay check at the time!
I got rid of my 357 several years ago because I realized I just didn't enjoy shooting it. Bought a Ruger GP100 in 327. Been very happy with it. In addition to that I have a Colt dick special and a J frame with 3" barrel. Both 38's. I also have a "J" frame in 9mm, which is a nasty little thing to shoot. If I wasn't fascinated by the moon clips I would send it down the road too.
Between the wife and I, four 38s, and a couple of 38/357s.
