Quick Summary

The .357 SIG cartridge is favored for its increased power and penetration compared to 9mm, often called '9mm on steroids.' Its bottlenecked case design also enhances feeding reliability in firearms. For carry, the Smith & Wesson 686 Plus is often preferred over the 627 for its better balance and size, despite the 627 holding more rounds.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do people use .357 SIG ammunition?

.357 SIG is popular because it's considered a more powerful and penetrative round than 9mm, often described as '9mm on steroids.' Its bottlenecked cartridge design also contributes to better feeding reliability in most firearms.

What are the pros and cons of the Smith & Wesson 686 Plus compared to the 627?

The Smith & Wesson 686 Plus is generally preferred for carry and general use due to its better balance and size. While the 627 offers an extra round, the 686 Plus is considered a better all-around firearm for most situations.

How does stainless steel hold up to rust on firearms?

Stainless steel slides on firearms, even after finishes like bead blasting, will resist rust if properly maintained. Keeping the firearm oiled and clean is crucial, just as with any stainless steel component, to prevent surface rust.

Are red dot sights (RDS) beneficial for home defense pistols?

Yes, red dot sights significantly enhance a pistol's effectiveness, especially for home defense and shooting on the move. They make target acquisition faster and easier, allowing for more flexibility in hand positioning and a more intuitive aiming experience.

What are the main drawbacks of pistol caliber carbines (PCCs)?

A significant drawback of pistol caliber carbines is 'barrel drag.' In a long barrel, the bullet can actually slow down due to friction after the powder has burned out, potentially negating some of the expected ballistic advantages over a handgun.
