I agree that revolvers are harder than semi-automatics to hide, usually, but the 357 magnum I had in mind is not a revolver. (I have a 4 inch Python and a S&W 640.)

It is the Coonan 357 magnum 1911. http://coonaninc.com/

I just didn't know how it compared, ballistics wise, with the 38 Super.

Thanks.
