Good afternoon, all.
Looking for a winter carry sidearm, and like the thought of carrying a .357. My warm weather carry is a Walther PPS 9mm which I dearly enjoy but I am not a fan of 9mm against layers of heavy clothing; I think something with more oomph is in order. I've considered .45 ACP but can't find a pistol I like well enough to commit, so I have decided to go with a revolver in .357.
I've narrowed the choices to SP101 3" and a GP100 3". The winner will be carried OWB under my coat and stoked with standard pressure .357 JHPs. With those items in mind, is the GP100's extra round and more filling grip worth the extra weight and greater dimensions compared to the SP101. I do not have a favorite as I like both, and I would love to hear the thoughts of those who may be carrying either or both of these revolvers.
Thank you much, and have a great day.
