There's the Taurus 608. You can send it off to a custom gunsmith shop like Aimpro Tactical that can add an underlug rail for laser or light. it'll run you a little more than $500 but will also keep you well under $1000

the pap is a good gun too. i originally went to out to get one from Duffys and really only ended up with the mini draco because it was cheaper at the time and the barrel is chrome lined.
i don't think you'll be disappointed if you choose to get a pap.
yeah i have a virtual revolving door for guns. partly because my wife doesnt get the appeal, so she isnt super supportive of my interests. to maintain the peace at home, i usually have to get rid of one before i can get another one. :o
i think i saw one at Sotts Gunsmithing a couple weeks back and pretty sure Duffys get them in pretty regularly or can get one in for you easily enough
edit... might have been a PAP at scotts.
i had altamont boot grips on my 686 before i sold it. i dont know if it was the grips or the way i was gripping the gun but i'd end up with a blister on my thumb knuckle after a few rounds of .357
i'd buy them again though
well, crap. i had a feeling it couldnt be that easy :o
however, it cant be fired from the shoulder without a stock. so it doesnt quite meet Marylands definition of a rifle, either.
i saw this completed ak upper kit with receiver. since it's never had a stock attached, could this be completed without attaching a stock and be considered a pistol?
i've owned a P07, full size steel Jericho and P01.
unfortunately i dont have them any more but the one i miss most is the P01. i got it used and showed heavy signs of wear but it still shot great was very comfortable. as a lefty, i liked having the decocker instead of the safety...
