Yup, I bought one and still haven't found a good use for it. It is big fat and ugly and inaccurate.

All the small lightweight ones.
I carry a 5"1911 at times.
An all steel J Frame aint no thing.

The only Smith that I owned, that I did not like, was the model 69, and that more for the caliber than the gun. I shoot for fun, and it was not fun.

My least favorite is the 642 snubby. It’s just hard to be accurate with it. It’s only good for 0-5ft maybe 10 but that’s it in a self defense situation

Sold the three in my avatar because the stubby magnums were no fun to shoot. Wish I had the 657 PC back though. Value is going crazy with those.

i Frames. I have a beautiful nickel 32 Reg Police from my grandfather. I wouldn’t part with it except to pass it on to the next family member but, dang, those are the some tiny framed guns.
Any revolver that is chambered for .410. Looking at you, Guv’nor.

Of the S&W revolvers I've owned, the 340PD was the worst. Made me bleed around the thumb joint/web area in just a couple of shots.
But my all time least favorite revolvers were Colt Diamondbacks. Crappy, uneven pulls and unreliable ignition in DA. Not any more accurate than any other 4" .38, less than several of my model 10s! DA or SA. And the Accro sights were poor compared to Smith's adjustable sight picture. (Elliason sights are a different story.)
