Default Model 60 3" Durability
Could any of you comment on the durability of a new model 60 3" using 125gr Golden Sabre .357 (medium velocity) rounds on a regular basis.

I'm trying to decide between an L frame 686 with a 2-1/2" barrel, and the lighter weight j frame.

The intended use will be for home defense, with 50% concealed carry in an IWB holster.

Thanks.
