Wow that's a sweet deal.

Wow that's a sweet deal.

No kidding; that would be a solid buy for a clean used example.

This. The 340 is one of those guns that just makes me think "Huh. Dude doesn't shoot a lot."

Pretty sure it was Darryl who first called the M&P 340, with its steel cylinder, better sights and steel pivot pins, the "quintessential J-frame." Or something like that.

Sure, now you'd have us choose between mom and dad.

(I'm staying with mom. How'd I get older than her anyway? Sounds like an idea for a new gun themed "Back to the Future".)

I'm sorry, when I hear "340" without any other referent, I think of Ti/Sc jewelry box revolvers from the early Aughties, not the M&P. I guess I really am getting old.

I'm going with, "Big Sister is watching you."

Everyone knows .357s with Ti and Sc should be N frames.

How about a 640 for $380?

That’s a good deal. If we didn’t already have two, but mine have had locks.
