I have one 3" its my S&W 36

I only have two 3" ones right now, a S&W 13-4 and a Colt Cobra. I'll be picking up a 3" S&W 65 in a couple of weeks.

Here is a couple of 3 inch J-frames that I believe are fun. And a triple set of 3 inch K-frames. Enjoy. I swear I'm showing my wife the photo of smithnut's 3 inchers so she'll think not complain about my meager group as "too many".

I love the 3" barreled guns. I have some in J,K and N frames.
I believe that a 3" K-frame is the perfect carry revolver. This 13-4 is my personal favorite.

I also have a 10-8 that looks identical to this.

This 60-4 is my favorite hiking/woods gun. .38 Special +P is plenty for anything I might run into in my area.

Not my gun, sadly. Here's a 3" S&W featured in a revolver article by Tiger McGee for American Handgunner.

Here are a few 3" S&W guns. Model 65's on the left and the rest are model 13's except the bottom right one, it is a 10-8 in 38 special.

This Guns Magazine article, by Massad Ayoob, came up on a recent newsletter. Lots of love for the 3" Revolver.

This is an old thread, Moo Moo, but maybe it'll gain traction again.
I only have on true 3", a 13-3. I have a couple of pre-27 3.5 ers.

This 13-3 came to me with lady smith grips. Since I'm no lady, I went with the combats.

Picking up a 65-3 3" tomorrow. Looking forward to it.

Im new to the forum, still getting a vibe for it. Some beautiful Smith's in this thread. I have a number of Smith's but only one 3", a 100/100 classic 1960 3" Pony that ships tomorrow. Never been fired, cylinder still packed in grease. I'm excited as can be.

My first love is the 13-1 though.

Love the knowlege and reference found here on this forum.
