I never was very good with J frames though I did prefer the all steel models when I had them. I think that in a close-in real world situation I'd hopefully be ok but ended up going to a small 9mm 1911.
My favorite of the J frames was a .38spl 640.
99% of the time it's my Springfield RO Elite 9mm, now a discontinued model. Easier to conceal even under a t-shirt and I shoot it a lot better. To be honest I've been shooting/carrying 1911s of one sort or another about 52 years, 10+ more than revolvers lol.
