I am still considering moderately priced options in a defense gun for my mother. Replies I got from an earlier thread made me think of other options besides Taurus and Rossi. Looked at a recent catalog from KY Imports, Inc. They have a .38 caliber snubby that looks interesting. It is a S&W model 38. It has a shrouded hammer, which I like. It comes in good, very good, and excellent condition. You can get these in all blued finish or blued with stainless cylinder. Would there be any advantage to the stainless cylinder over the blued besides looks, and is it worth the extra $20 that it would cost? I cannot find information about this gun. Could anyone please help? I mostly want to know about it's reliability and are there any after-market grips for it. The wooden ones it comes with do not look comfortable. As always all information is greatly appreciated. By the way the one in "Excellent" condition is $249.99 with stainless cylinder, in case anyone else is interested in purchasing one.
