Mike,
First I want to comment your M&P's hammer sticking half way back. As previously posted it should not do that. I did not comment sooner because I have not had to fix that problem and have little hope of diagnosing its cause without the revolver in hand. I suggest starting a thread specifically on that problem in the S&Wsmithing sub-forum where it will be answered by, among others, gunsmiths.

Second, a 3" Model 13 will be more expensive than the more common 4". That's partly due to the quantities manufactured and partly due to what's in vogue. I prefer adjustable sights on a .357 Magnum. There is too much difference in velocity between .38 and .357s to hope they will have the same point of impact at distance. If you are only going to shoot .357s a larger frame or the new Model 66-8 will hold up better. That said, Model 13s are popular here.
