Just be aware that the Hawes Revolvers DO NOT have a hammer block like most S&Ws. That means if the chamber under the hammer is loaded any blow on the hammer can fire that cartridge. Hawes was sued so many times over the lack of this safety feature that they quit importing into the US. They are a well made SA revolver and are available in other calibers besides the .357.

If you are carrying a Hawes you should do exactly what the early users of the Colt 1873 Army did; have an unloaded chamber under the hammer. ........... Big Cholla
