Question Any current 3" J-Frames??

Hey guys,

Looking to get a S&W J frame with a enclosed/shrouded hammer as a CCW gun. I have a M 65 3" HB which has been our house gun for a long time. Just LUV the balance and pointability of the 3" 65. Would like to match it up as close as possible with a J-frame for carry.
I believe the they made the 640 with a 3" barrel at one time but they are not currently listed on the S&W website and seem to be pretty rare on the auction sites too.

Any thoughts?? Thanks.

NB

The factory just came out with several 2.5" J frames (more barrel weight, longer ejector rod), but they will not balance the same as a 3" K frame.

Just hit the site and still see the 3" model 60 (SKU #162430) listed. There's a 3" 632 and a 3" M&P360. They even have a 3" Model 63, WOW!

Thumbs up

I have a M60 with a bobbed hammer. It has a better trigger than the enclosed hammer j frames. It's as good a carry revolver that i have seen.
