For a simple bedside gun, I'd go with a Mdl 10, or perhaps a Mdl 21 if you wanted a larger cartridge while still keeping low pressure. For a...
Wish Smith still made this version.
Out of curiosity, I was looking at .22 snubs (this ain't a buying post), and noted the Smith 43c lists as having an aluminum alloy cylinder,...
Eh... probably a 3" SP101, or a Vaquero.
So ... basically a Centennial N frame ?
Wouldn't mind the Double Tap Defense derringer design coming back
Yes. Everyone needs a 4" .38 Spl. Reliable, easy to use and maintain, and suitable for anything short of dangerous game and a handful of predators..

My thinking, nowadays, if someone buys a revolver; it's generally a woods gun, in a heavy Magnum or "super" Magnum cartridge. Think .44 Magnum,...
I'm *not* dressing around a duty gun- a belt gun. I'm *not* (and I *can't*- my work is an NPE, and my uniform is required). Outside of work, odds...
And ... here we go
My personal dogma is "Carry what you can reasonably conceal, irrelevant of cartridge." For most, that's something along the lines of an LCP. It's...
