I have had a few 'J' frames over the years. My first one was a M-49 that I foolishly sold to fund the purchase of a M-60 many years ago.
The M-60 was eventually sold to fund the purchase of a PD340. The PD340 was a joy to carry, but not very pleasant to shoot.
Several years ago, I found a nice M-36 with a 3" barrel..... This one is a keeper!
