lightest pocket revolver
What is the lightest 38 revolver you can get that is rated for +p? Make or model doesn't matter, i.e. Colt, S&W.
I have a 442 no lock but it seems to me there should be something lighter.
Thanks,
pineappleshooter

I believe the original 337 TI, think it's either 11 or 10.5oz.

My Taurus M85 UL weighs 13 3/8 oz. on digital scales. That is 1 oz. less with Hogue monogrip than it weighed with factory grips.

Too bad you don't want a 22....well...not too bad, you know what I mean. A Model 317 snub will almost float out of your pocket at around 10.8 ounces. It has a lanyard-loop so you can tie it down and not lose it. Do you really need something that shoots +P in a revolver any lighter? There is really not much difference between a +P and standard velocity ammo....most of the difference is in our heads IMHO. Standard load 38-special SD ammo has come a long way in the past several years.

S&W 337Ti at 11oz+. I loved mine and carried it for years. They are expensive and hard to find. I bobbed the hammer and had a fantastic trigger job done on mine. Hardly knew it was there. The ammo weighed more than the gun!

The .357 magnum 340PD is listed as weighing 11.4 oz. empty and yes it is a thumper.

The original 340--chambered for .38--is 10 oz according to a friend who has one. The .357 mag is 11oz or 11.4.
