I have a license which would allow me to carry anything I could conceal.
At first I carried a Colt .380 Government Model (consider it a Mustang
with a longer barrel), but wasn't so sure about the ability of that
caliber to do the job if required.
Currently I carry a .357 Taurus model 605 - the grips on the Taurus fit
my hands better than the other brands of .357 snub-nose revolvers. I
carry it inside a cloth holster in my pocket - the holster to break up
the outline. Not the most accessible carry mode, certainly, but it could
surprise some bad guy...
