Like some earlier posters, I carried a CM Model 15 in the earlier 70s in the USAF 2750th Security Police. It also started my history with S&W. I carried at least one Smith as either primary or backup through a 31 year career in civilian LE. After the agencies I worked for went with the wonder nines and later 40 calibers, a J frame lived in an ankle holster or a jacket pocket. I've been retired almost 20 years and a K 38 3" or J frame is on me when outside my residence under the LEOSA. K 38s are just addictive. My avatar shows one of my current favorites but the other is a round butt 3 inch model 10 with 2 cylinders, one the original 38, the other cut for 9mm full moon clips. The CM K-38 made an addict out of me.
