Over the last five years I've owned five or six j-frames, from steel M-49 to alloy M-37 to a 360 and two 340s.
The 37 was my first. Then I found the 49. Fun-er to shoot, but too heavy for CCW (at least it was for me, spolied by the 37).
I really wanted to try the 360, so I bought one. Then traded it in on a 340, then that on a 340 with the HiViz sights. (To be more accurate, I bought each used, selling the previous.)
Firing 357s in the 360/340 is more fun than I care to have, so they became really expensive, slightly lighter 38s. When I started reading about ILS issues, I started getting concerned. when it happened to someone I knew, I got a
lot more concerned. The 340 went back in the safe, and eventually, went away.
The 37 was, for me, a decent compromise.
Then I bought a Kahr PM9. The 37 has been in the safe ever since. The Kahr is shorter in length, every bit as light, has much better sights and holds two more rounds. Even shooting +P or +P+, the recoil is much less than the 37. Carrying an extra mag gives me 14 rounds.
I pocket carry my PM9 at least nine months of the year. In the winter I try to IWB something larger. Usually a Kahr P45.
