The 2.25" SP101 does look nice.
It is available in 9mm too.

They just brought it back out. Unfortunately it doesn't have a concealed hammer.The 2.25" SP101 does look nice.

If you're going to get a Taurus 85, get it now. Taurus is discountinuing the 85 along with the Rossi by Taurus revolvers.
The 3 inch is not available as a DAO, in other words the hammer is not shrouded. That is only available on the snubby.
Mr Jones if you do link up with Pete get in contact with me. I've literally got a truck load of wheel guns your wife is welcome to try. I wouldn't mind finally getting to shoot with Pete too.

He helped me build my upper on my 6.8 AR. That's my favorite to shoot by far. I'm gonna text him and see what works for him.
Lets do it fellas!!

I don't have quite as many as you but I have some head turners for sure as far as the snub nose game is concerned. I'd actually love for someone else to shoot my Manurhin as well and tell me i'm wrong and it does fire rainbows and hookers.
On a side note WTH helped to the Korth Sky Marshal it was supposed to eventually be here but I haven't seen any news since 2015?
Standard hammer is fine for OWB. If that's how she will carry there is no reason not to go with the three inch.Hmmm. Guess I will have to decide which she would prefer more.
Hahahaha!!..
No wait, you were kidding right?
OK, a few more comments. First off, I second MPDC's suggestion at Gunbroker. I really like these ugly guns.
Second, a Smith M10 in short barrel is bulkier and heavier than a J-frame. I like the idea, but for me the iconic M10 has a 4" heavy barrel.
Third, one can find J-frame Smith 36 & 37 with 3" barrels. I got mine with a C&R license a few years ago. Little increase in weight, big difference in sighting plane. Worth considering if the hammer spur is not an issue.
I'm not clear if this is going to be a bedside gun, or something to wear around the house, or a full-bore carry piece. Obviously potential mission requirements vary.
Buffalo Bore makes the traditional FBI "flying ashtray" in 38spl; they use low-flash powder to minimise the effects of flash on night vision. Good Idea. They also make a similar 38spl in hard-cast wadcutter format, which I might prefer. I like the damage that wadcutters can inflict, at least in theory. You're looking at a buck and a quarter per shot, but it's probably worth it.
I''m not much of a target shooter, but I can get good groups with a snubby if I take my time. I think most of the Smiths mentioned will shoot to point of aim with 150-158gr bullets at reasonable distances, so I opt for a heavier, if slower, projectile.

Get on Quantico Tactical's emailing list and wait for these to come back http://www.quanticotactical.com/asp...ade Ins&CMNum=293&CMSNum=1732&CMSN=Revolvers> $325. They went fast, but QT is getting more in.
I love mine. Can get one new right now for $320. Free shipping and $50 rebate makes out the door cost $330. That's about as good as it gets.
Only thing I would do though is contact SMGA to be absolutely positive it's the airweight as they have the SDVE in the specs
