My 2" 10, actually, a -11 model made 1/03, according to S&W, weighs twice what a 637 does... some 7 oz heavier than a 640/649... and, even 5 oz more than the slightly longer SP101. The benefits are easy to see... K-frame size, really +P capable, a six-shooter, and a heritage of note. It was my best el-cheapo buy - $280 closeout priced and brand new. It is disgustingly accurate... figure the drop, and you can hit 12" plates at 110yd. Real comfortable with +P 158gr LHPSWC's and the wood service boots I found at S&W Accessories. Yeah, it is heavy - but in a pancake style OWB holster, it feels 'natural'.
