From Supica, I narrowed it down to a K-frame Model 19 or an N-frame Model 27 (or 28). I'd like to hear from people who have shot both: is there a big difference between the two in your hand? Is the K-frame 357 riskier because of the smaller frame?

Thanks for your help.
I know it's not what you asked, but maybe an L Frame would be a good compromise. With the same grip frame as the K, it would probably be more comfortable for most people (including myself) than the N Frame, while providing a stronger platform.
