Welcome to the forum

I am a S&W owner and big fan, but if you can find a gun store that has a Kimber K6S revolver you should see if you can try one to assess the trigger pull. I don't have one, but dry fired one in my LGS. The double action trigger pull is very smooth and the cylinder locks in place before you feel a "wall" of heavier resistance to overcome to fire the gun.

Kimber touts it as having a "smooth match grade trigger". It comes with either 2", 3", or 4" barrel and with a hammer (single action/double action) or without a hammer (double action only). American Rifleman magazine tested a 4" Combat K6S that had a 9 lb. 10 oz. double action pull and 3 lb. 6 oz. single action pull.

It's not as compact as a J frame S&W, but the extra weight is a big help in taming the recoil of a .357 mag. or .38 Special +P.

PS: I have a Ruger LCR in .327 Federal magnum and it's light weight makes it much too uncomfortable for me to shoot factory loads. I carry it only with .32 H&R magnum loads.
