From smoky jazz bars and trench coats to front pockets and ankle rigs, the snubby has carved out a lasting legacy.You’ll hear the history of how the snub-nosed revolver came to be, what made the J-frame so iconic, and how my own journey with pocket carry went from “no way” to “never leave home without it.” I’ll also break down some of the key models, talk ammo choices, gear setups, and how my wife’s Taurus Model 85 led me down a rabbit hole that ended with a S&W 340 in my pocket.We’ll finish with a challenge: take on the Snubby Super Test — and let me know what your favorite snub-nose is.🔗 Mentioned in this episode:The history of the J-frame and the Colt Detective SpecialWhy I carry a snubby as a backup gunSimply Rugged Holsters (mid-show sponsor)The Snubby Super Test drillMy evolving views on ammo selectionListener question of the week📬 Your Turn:What’s your favorite snub-nosed revolver — and why?
