Here we take a look at the S&W Heavy Light Weights trio: S&W 340pd/327PC/329pd. These are very powerful lightweight revolvers that are great for carry. Stay Safe and Check 360 Often!

When I carry a revolver at the range, people think they’re awesome. I know a tactical guy, and his first response years ago was “That’s great for contact shots!” 👍💥

Yep I see a lot of tac guys on here still enjoying revolvers.

Seeing the Pug nose again is like seeing an old friend after a few years. Such a great looking gun! A crazy gun, but beautiful. I just love revolvers...
@gregstudeny168010 ай бұрын
I have all 3 of these. They are my most carried revolvers. Like you said the 340pd is just too easy to carry for it to be left behind.

I carry the M&P340. It's like the 340PD except it has a steel cylinder instead of the titanium cylinder. It also has a different standard front sight (bit dot night sight). It's definitely a go everywhere gun. Well, except where metal detectors are involved.

Great topic. I've always personally thought, a handgun is of no use to me if I can't comfortably conceal & carry it. It's nice to have options that allow both, yet still are potent fight stoppers. 👍👍

I carry my 637 performance center almost every day in the hot summer months it’s like nothing there but for the rest of year I mostly carry my gp100 7 shot in a Lobo enhanced pancake. It’s heavy but the lobo holster mitigates the weight

I’m a 1911 kinda guy, specifically in 10MM & .45 but my constant companion no matter what is my 329PD with VZ smooth sanded smooth grips and soon to have aftermarket sights

Totally agree with you! The wheel gun is hard to beat. Especially in the J frame size. They are extremely comfortable to carry.
@Luccimatic3 ай бұрын
i miss having a j frame. i had a model 60 a while back that shot 38s like a dream. i also had an airweight 38 that i liked a little bit less at the range but it carried SO EASILY.

My normal EDC is a Glock 33, but I have on occasion carried an LCR. Going from the revolver back to a polymer auto makes you realize just how lightweight the LCR is in comparison to the Glock

Love your EDC choices brother. Old school all the way!
@alrbredwall10 ай бұрын
i think those are all excellent choices. i have the 327pc and the 329pd. i have the smith and wesson 360pd which is similar to the 340 but it has the exposed hammer. i also use that same crimson trace grip. it takes the recoil rather well.

Been carrying a six shot .357 snub nose for the last two years and agree, I never have an excuse as to why I go out and don't have it on me. Very comfortable to carry and never feel like I "need more firepower" . That's just nonsense.

@@ABABABABABABABABABABABABAB Cheapie Rossi 461. Carries nicely and have shot thousands of rounds, .357 and 38+P with no issue. Timing is still perfect. No worries about beating it up either since it was so cheap. It's a tool ! Carry Hornady Critical Defense 110gr FTX 38+p in it.

I just bought a 329pd a couple weeks ago. It's a little brutal but it is so light compared to my Taurus 44 Magnum.

Underwood had the 190gr LSWCHP .44 spcl. Excellent load. Probably the best .44 spcl for power. A good night load The only Glocks I have are the ones in 10mm. Underwood XTP 155gr 10mm loads . And I do own every Glock 10mm flavor they make. As for revolvers. There are a few advantages. #1- Perception in court. Like it or not, your enemies serve on juries. To them it's a "cowboy's gun". Use that to your advantage. It's like that with the color pink .It's a man's color,yet most think it's a girl's color. Weaponize that perception to your advantage. #2-Barrel press into a chest. #3- Power per shot. ( Choose the 158gr +P LSWCHP .38 spcl) #4- Gross manual of arms. #5- Easy to show others how to use. And casings don't get ejected everywhere.

Got that right. Slip in the pocket, boot, or waist with or without a Mika pocket holster.

Have you ever had any issues with the S&W internal lock? I'm talking myself into purchasing a 640 but the key lock makes me hesitant.
@TheOl19115 ай бұрын
Me personally no. Never had an issue. I have heard stories from others that claimed they did have issues with lock engaging during recoil. But for me never had an issue.

that is not a 340,pd, .... a 340pd has a hammer and the entire gun is silver color.....
@podmonkey250110 ай бұрын
I wish the 329 PD had a 3" barrel instead, it wouldn't harm the concealability very much at all.
