This is a pdf file and is a little hard to navigate with the pics.
It is best to try and follow the numbered paragraphs.

An interesting read on using the Snubby.

Nice find! IIRC Michael deBethencourt was teaching a snubby class @ K R Training last year. I was hosting a class or I would have been there.

He sure doesn't seem to have much use for semi-autos. I mean, I like my revolvers, but I don't think they are any better or any worse than my semi-autos - just different. I have yet to see a perfect gun.

I have had a cylinder seize up and fail to rotate (at the range) because .44 magnum rounds had caused the cases to back out of the chambers against the shield enough to impede rotation of the cylinder. If that had been in a combat situation, it would have counted as a failure to fire which could have gotten me killed. They were factory loads in an unmodified Model 29. It is entirely conceivable that the same thing could happen in a .357 or a .38 special.
