I've had my CPL for 5 years now and I recently got my first revolver (SP101 with 4.2" barrel and target sights) and realize I really like revolvers. Having fired a few rounds through a S&W Scandium .357, I KNOW I am looking for a .38 Special +P revolver that will fit in my pocket. I am not opposed to IWB belt carry either. I only carry one gun at a time and have no problem with carrying something small with few shots.
I like the features and function of the S&W 638, it's a classic. The Ruger LCR however has crept up on the Smith's territory and many people really like it. It appears slightly larger than the Smith J-Frames and I fear it wouldn't pocket as well. Do the grips that make the LCR such a pleasant shooter also make it harder to carry?
Any advice on which carries and shoots better?
