    When I got my .44, I was just looking to see what they had, and if I actually wanted one of what they had. They had a whole shipment of Ruger Single actions, .357, .44 Special, .44 Magnum, and .45,...

    637 or 638. If you choose the 637, bob the spur so it doesn’t snag.

    Or if you want all steel, seek out a Ladysmith 60 in .357, and perform the aforementioned spur-cumcision.

    My wife has small hands, and doesn’t care for recoil or hard-to-pull triggers.

    G42 it is, x2 now since I discovered it hits a sweet spot in shootability and carryability.
