You seem to be concentrating on J frames. Small frame revolvers that have a five shot capacity when chembered for 38 Special or 357 Magnum.
Since you say you have never had a revolver before, may I humbly suggest for your first revolver you buy a classic K frame revolver. Larger than a J frame, six shots when chambered for 38 Special or 357 Magnum.
I suggest for your first revolver you find a Model 10, the classic six shot 38 Special revolver. Blue finish, 38 Special, and fixed sights, still manufactured after more than 100 years. (I'm counting the 38 Military & Police models in that statistic). If you want adjustable sights, a model 67 is a great Stainless 38 Special revolver. If you want 357 Magnum, may I suggest a Model 66 or a Model 686. Both are stainless. The 66 is a K frame revolver, the 686 is slightly larger and more rugged. It is available as a seven shot revolver too.
May I also suggest you not buy a 357 Magnum J frame revolver as your first revolver. 357 Magnum is quite a handfull in a small revolver. Best to wait until you have some experience with revolvers before you go down that road. If you buy a 357 Magnum J frame as your first revolver, you may be disappointed.
