Almost 40 years ago now, I spend some years in Ecuador. My work there took me all over from the coastal cities and plains, to the high Andean cities, towns and remote villages, to the very remote tribal areas of the Tripple Canopy rain forest. The only handgun I took down was a Colt Huntsman 22 LR. It made lots of journeys with me along with an 8" blade Randall knife. I had lots of time to think about the perfect handgun for all purposes and seasons.
I made my decision and upon return Stateside, I made a bee-line for Carter Country guns in Houston and purchased a S&W 22 stainless Kit Gun. A few months later I added a 6" S&W Model 28. Over the decades, many others have come and gone, but I still think my original choices stand the test of time. I did give the Model 28 to my son last year, but I have others that take it's place.
