5-shots of .357Mag or .38Spl in a very rugged 3' barrel frame makes for an excellent backwoods handgun.

A Trusty Sidearm for the Backwoods

When you need some versatility with no shortage of energy delivery in the backwoods, a 5-shot revolver with a 3" barrel and chambered for .357 Magnum answers the call pretty well.
Officer Media Group, Robert Marvulli photographer
At 20 yards, we were able to keep the Hydra-Shok bullets within a 3.5-inch circle at 20 yards, but we are certain they are capable of better accuracy with better shooters.

Will the New Hydra-Shok Deep Perform?

Reviewing the Federal Premium Hydra-Shok Deep cartridges in 9mm and .40 S&W.
Lindsey Bertomen
SIG SAUER sent us two cartridge combinations to test: 140 grain OTM Match Grade Rifle Cartridges (2,690 ft./s at 2,249 foot-pounds) and 6.5 Creedmoor HT rounds (2,825 ft./s at 2,126 foot-pounds). If I were to recommend a 120-grain combination, the HT is definitely the way to go. It did an outstanding job in crosswinds, yet produced very low recoil. SIG SAUER rifle rounds have a cannelured crimp, which looks unusual, but performs extremely well.

Old School Is Still Cool

For a law enforcement back up or EDC gun, the Smith & Wesson Model 442 is the way to go.
Med-Eng released its Avenger Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV), a patrol-car-trunk sized robot that can be mounted with CBRNE sensors and, using its arms, peek inside (or even grab something inside) of the passenger compartments of vehicles and into truck beds. This is a full featured remote machine with full capabilities.
