I've been thinking about a model 16 for some time and am getting closer to getting one. My question is the barrel length, not sure whether I should start with a 4" or 6". Thoughts on which one and why would be appreciated.

First you have to find one, and if you do, I'd grab it regardless of barrel length.
You can thank me later.

Which 16? An original or a -4 etc?
OP
A -4 would be fine for me.
I have a original 16 in 32 long. Love 32's it shoots very good. My buddy has a 16-4 4in its very accurate also. I have a 631 4in and it shoots way better then i ever expected. I love smith's but have a colt OM that is a tack driver too.
Prior to the -4 model there were only about 10 4" factory Mod 16's. So if you want a 4", it would have to be a -4, and they aren't easy to locate either. The Classic Mod 16 is a 6" -2 or -3, but they are also very expensive. Good luck.
