Back in the galaxy far, far, away that was my first marriage, I bought her a Model 60LS S&W .357 for about $500. (Now a little more)
It was the Ladysmith, 2.13 inch barrel 5 rounds, I used 110gr. Winchester .357 rounds. or .38+P JHP's.
Your right Lucas, the Dick Tracy snubbie has lost the "Limelight", but is still in production, and is about as reliable as summer heat.
I would have carried that pistol to this day but, (as I cry in my adult beverage),,, she kept it.

Oh well, if it keeps her safe so be it. She'll be alive to torture,, er, I mean enjoy the relationship with another guy.

Good post, I'm gonna start looking at some catalogs,..Maybe a S&W Model 640 Centennial. Thanks,
