I started with two so that I could see what was necessary to keep the gun level after recoil.
The 38 Super is a flat, fast shooting round and the ammo that I have used with the test moves at 1380fps.
Nice round for Steel Challenge, or as a hunting side arm.
The slide and barrel are both Fail-Zero finished, so that it cleans up after shooting very easily and quickly.

Years ago I had a S&W performance center .357 with a ported three inch barrel.
If you held a piece of cardboard over it and fired it it would shave enough material off the jackets they would fly out and penetrate the cardboard. I sent it back to Smith. They checked it and said it was normal. So upon receiving it back I fired a model 686 6 inch ported gun and it did same thing.
Now the ports definitely worked and kept muzzle flat but I had bought the three inch gun to carry and shooting from the hip was definitely not possible as it would blow everything up into your face.

Your gun I imagine will be shot at arms length and you probably won't experience same thing.
