I was looking for a lightweight "larger frame" carry gun and couldn't turn up a decent Model 12. Went with the next best thing (perhaps even better, depending on one's opinion) --> Model 242. Found one NIB from a forum member a while back. Carries just like a light weight J frame, but with two more rounds. Tough to turn up, but not impossible, and probably easier than a VG condition 12.
