I think it would be a great companion for a M-60-10 3"
What's your experience with the little .22 ??
My M-617 seems large after seeing the M-63....

The Mod 63 is a J Frame, so it may need larger grips or a Tyler T grip to get the best grip on it for shooting. I'm waiting for Fri. to pick up my latest 4" 63-1, and it has aftermarket grips that are very similar to Herrit Shooting Stars but not checkered. They seem to fit my hand very well. I'll try and remember to post a picture after I get it home and cleaned up. Accuracy wise, I expect it will shoot about as well as my Mod 17. I think a 3" barrel would be wonderful, my favorite barrel length and would think there would be no mechanical difference in accuracy, but possibly a little loss from the shorter sight radius.
 
I don't believe that S&W has ever made the M-63 in 3 inch flavor. 2, 4 and 5 inch, yes.

The AirLite M-317 can be had in 3 inch guise.

It would be good medicine.
 
Ordered mine in April also, Tom, if you see yours first let us know. I believe I was told late July or early August
 
The 3 incher isn't out yet.
Latest scuttlebutt I heard-intro well beyond August. :-( .....wish it had a regular front sight too.
