Old School - Revolver Here
I noticed your other post saying you'd switched.
If you were shooting .357 in your J Frame, that's enough to make anybody switch.
I have two J Frames that are in frequent use, both lightweight. One is an aluminum alloy and the other is a scandium alloy. Both of them hurt to shoot with duty loads. But of course, it'll hurt them a lot more than it hurts you.
Other frequent carry will be a P239 and a P220. The P220 I've owned forever...one of the original German, old, non-rebounding guns that is still a tack driver after all these years. Close to 30 years, now that I think of it.
The P239 is about as easy to carry as an airweight Treasury load J Frame, except for the weight. It'll usually be okay even with summertime shorts and a light shirt over top. Duty loads in 9mm are far ahead in performance, of course.
I live in Virginia where everybody has guns anyway, and nobody really gives it a second thought.
Have a few strange revolvers that I do not usually carry:
* 3" Talo 686
* .45 ACP "Night Guard" snub nose
* .357 Miculek special scandium 5". <--Another tack driver! Awesome gun. Not sure why they wanted such a big gun to be scandium. This is not the popular TRR 8 that a log of people own. It's a gun specifically for Miculek. I don't know him, and I hope one day to find out why it is scandium instead of steel. Extremely accurate, but it'll wear on you if you're shooting a few boxes at one time.
I could talk about guns all day, so I'd better stop.
