I'll start by saying I'm looking for a gun to keep in my desk at work. I'm not looking for anything fancy or something I'm going to be upset if I scratch. No debates on calibers, stopping power, or revolver hate. I've found these http://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/index.php/cPath/654_910/gunbar. What do you guys think.

I have a Smith & Wesson M&P 9 mm and it is a fine gun. Nothing wrong with a .38 either. I always wonder, if someone breaks in and confronts you pointing a revolver at them, is he thinking - "Hmmmm.... that's only a .38 (insert whatever caliber you want), or is he thinking - "Oh $h!t!" I vote the latter.

People are so strongly opinionated when it comes to fire arms. It's like politics and religion. Again just a pistol to keep in a drawer. Reliability a must, looks not so much. Maybe this is one of those things that you don't buy sight unseen.

I think it would make for a nice desk gun, and that's not bad for the money. I like .38 revolvers myself. My mom bought a .38 special from a retired LEO and it was well cared for.
