I have a -4 Model 19 target model with a 6" barrel. Nice gun, accurate, reliable. But, look at a picture of a 4" Model 19; IMHO there is no better looking revolver as far as the proportions.
I think the tiebreaker for me may be the simple fact that in the good old Peoples Republic of California I'm not allowed to carry a handgun at all (neither concealed nor open unloaded as of Jan 1 thanks to Jerry Brown)
Thanks for the link.Yes, you can. California does issue concealed carry permits and you may be able to get one. However, you'll have to navigate through that with the Calguns.net folks.

There's a county FAQ that may be helpful.
The 4" definitely felt 100% better in my hand and I slightly prefer the look of it. Perfectly balanced and points easily, and much easier to hold steady on target.
