CC revolver suggestions - no snubbies please

A three inch Detective Special would probably fit that bill.

clang,

Three of those guns you mentioned are no longer produced, and a 3" Model 65 demands a high premium right now.


I wouldn't send someone new to guns off to try to find something from the used market, especially something as desireable as a 3" Model 65.

I forget that not everyone has owned guns as long as I have (or been to as many gun shows). It's been a long time since I have even considered buying a new gun, because a good used gun is a much better value. There were a bunch of 3" 65 trade ins being sold less than a year ago for much less than the price of a new gun. They were snatched up pretty quick.

But, if in doubt, go the new route - S&W Customer Service is outstanding, I would recommened looking at almost anything from them (if you can stand the lock on new guns). Rugers are a good gun too, but they are a little chunkier than the Smiths. I have no actual experience with their CS.
