Even though I have a model 586 S&W, a triple Lock 44spl S&W, a snuby model 15 S&W and a Colt Officers model my favorite is the model 19 S&W four inches barrel.
It´s not the one I like more, but it is the one I feel better in my hand, the others seems more beatiful to me, but this is the one (the modelo 19) which I feel more comfortable.
If my model 15 were 4 inches barrel instead of 2 probably I feel it as good as my modelo19 in my hand.
One gun I never had but always I wanted to have is the .38-44 Outdoorsman or the .38-44 Heavy Duty.
