I had every intention of purchasing a revolver today for my own use and also my wife's as in-home protection. I thought that the new .327 federal was a good choice because of low-recoil for the gun that I want my wife to be able to shoot well. I looked around the internet and decided that a Ruger SP101 in .327 would do the trick. Because of kick and noise I decided against .357, other than practicing with it outside with hearing protection the main use of this gun would be inside the house and I would rather not use a .357 inside a relatively small room.
So I went to my favorite store and talked with the same salesman that I have talked to many times before and they had a SP101 in .327 in stock, he strongly advised against me buying the gun. Not because of performance of the shell but because he says there is every possibility the the shell will fade out of existence in the future and I will be stuck with a worthless gun. He advised a .38 spl (which is what I wanted to traded-in, a cheap old stub barrel gun). I'm not against a nice new .38 in the specs I currently want, but they didn't even have the .38 that I want. He actually talked me out of .327 that I would have bought today for something that they didn't have.....SO
Here is my question, what are your opinions on the .327 and its future? I could always get one and buy-up a gross of shells, this gun isn't a farm carry weapon and won't be shot that much. Or should I follow his advise, which has been good in the past, and go with a .38spl+p?

I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
