My body is kind of round, and its hard enough keeping my pants up unloaded. So I just keep a g19 in the vehicle. But when it cools off a bit, and I can comfortably carry a firearm , my 686p 3" sits in my pocket nicely.

A 640-1 is my choice but I also have a 60-7 or 60-9 to choose from. Sometimes I like a 69 too if I feel like I might need some extra hp.
change of mind
Since getting this birth year Baby Chiefs back from "the smith" I've been carrying it exclusively. Bobbed hammer, partially relieved trigger guard, fully checkered back strap, cerekote and Craig Spegel's Baby Booties give me all the confidence I need in my day-to-day travels. My Air Force Chiefs stripes and the $5 gold piece from the year I retired are what a friend who's a retired Navy Chief calls a "new level in vanity."
If I'll be working in the woods and I feel a need for more I strap on the 460 ES. Overkill? A friend dropped a charging grizzly boar about 20 miles from here a few years ago so I don't think so.

640 no dash in front pocket (middle one), two speed strips in weak side pocket.
Edit: I've added a 640-1 also.

I carried a Model 36 (no dash) for 50 years! Saved my bacon a few times. I just recently switched to a Bodyguard 380 with laser in my front pocket!

If I lived there, I think a K-frame Smith & Wesson M&P in .32-20 with a 4 inch tapered barrel, magna grips, and a grip adapter would be the hot ticket.Not the one I carry the most. It's the only one I carry. Got to obey the law of the land.
Limited to .32 caliber, 4 inch barrel lenght for revolvers.
So, 3 inch model 31 dash something (don't remember dash what, and to lazy to go check). Even though This .32 ruling allows for .32 Mag, I stick with .32 S&W long. The law also says you'r in deep trouble (trouble was not my first choice of word
Your little revolver is nice, but I'd put a grip adapter on it.

1- 100%
2- locally 2 1/2" model 66. Out of state traveling a 2 1/2" model 19-2- reason for this, if stopped, and I hope this does not happen, it would be less painful to have to get the model 19 back for some "local P.D."
3- see above.
4- I'm way to old and fat to IWB a revolver anymore.
4 A- generally a pancake or speed scabbard. On a rare event, an inverted shoulder holster.

I especially like the way each of the cylinder release screws are "clocked".
