      Depends on the balanced of the gun. If you get all steel the weight will probably be even. If you get plastic parts then it may be heavier in one spot over another and you need to adjust accordingly.

          That and all the misspellings and punctuation errors sure do point to that, LOL!

            You can twirl a snubby, but why would you want too? Twirling is more of a single action revolver kind of thing. Doing it with anything more modern just makes you look pretentious. And a longer barrel would make it easier to play with. You normally use the extra weight in the front to help you get it spinning.

              Sounds like a accident waiting to happen!

                If you're not sure, just stop in the local gun store and ask if they have any snubbies that are good for twirling!!

                I collect Military Arms and enjoy shooting in local matches. I also collect older Lever Actions, especially those chambered in odd/old cartridges. If you have a nice old Winchester or Marlin in 25-20, 32-40, 38-55, 40-60, 45-70, etc etc, please PM me and we can work out a deal.
