Very nice Pete. I'm a big fan of 3" j frames also. No other revolver fits my hands as well. Mine is a 60-15 with high viz front/adj rear sights.

I have a 60 no dash 3" and is my most times carry gun.

I love the three's". I also have the 36 skinny and heavy barrels. My appreciation of 3" tubes extends equally to K frames and (cover your ears) DA Rugers.

Love the 3". Try and find a 60-4 or a 36-6. Both with the full lug. About perfect balance, and extremely accurate.

I recently picked up a 36-1 3" HB/SB. I haven't found any stocks that I really like for it yet. I would like a boot style stock with the backstrap exposed.

I owuld love to have a 3" 940

I've had the same problem with my 36-1 3" HB round butt. After trying no less than three different aftermarket stocks, I keep going back to the factory grips:

Here's my other 3" Js, a pair of model 31-1s in .32 S&W Long:

I never thought I would like my 30 but that 32 S&W is nice to shoot!

I'm not prejudiced at all! I like all the old S&W revolvers with 3" (up to 3 1/2") tubes . . . N frame, K frame and J frame!

Just missed out on a 3" model 36 (round butt, heavy barrel), so I have to console myself with this one
Great little carry gun.

I also like 3" J-frames.

36-1, 36-1, 60-1

 

[pete950]

love to get my hands on a stainless one!!!!

3" J frames look great, very balanced and just the right proportions. How are the 3" typically used for service? Duty weapon, as opposed to 2" for conceal?

This is a 3" Model 60 I bought new. I used to carry it a lot. Now it is retired. It came DAO with a despurred hammer from the factory. The guy said it was a New York City PD over run but who knows.

My lovely bride used to carry this Model 36 when she worked late downtown. She carries an LCP now.

 

[tekarra]

Dave, those are two fine looking revolvers!

Dave, those are two fine looking revolvers!

Why thank you! I am fond of them and they are fine shooters.

 

[Lt JL]

From my days as a Defective. Still have it. Model 36 no dash flat latch. I wasn't the first guy to whom it was issued.

Love the 3". Try and find a 60-4 or a 36-6. Both with the full lug. About perfect balance, and extremely accurate.

I really like this one. I'll get a J-frame eventually.
