If you don’t mind the size, and old school snubby s&w k frame. As long as it is all steel and was made after they started marking model numbers (early to mid 50s), it can fire +p no problem

U can get a used smith j frame for not too much and snag some grips that look like ur pic related and it will be pretty close looking

Doesn't affect function, might not bother OP as much it does diehard Smithfags

The owners manual for my s&w .38 has a table that shows which models are rated for .38 +p and which aren't. Or you can just get a .357 and shoot .38 or .38+p out of it and still have the option for the power of .357 if you want it.
Mason Gray
Like this maybe?

Why? Do you think 200fps is going to make a huge difference? Just get a .357 mag snubbie.

>Do you think 200 fps is gonna make a difference?
Yes, because it makes it harder to dodge the bullet.

Honestly any gain in power is nice for .38. It is a weak round. So while .38 +p isn't great, it's better than .38.

J-frame owner here, can confirm, it bothers me a lot.
Like, honestly, how many j-frames were produced without hillary-holes? millions of them.
There is no real reason to choose a brand new j-frame over an older model, you can either buy mint examples from the 80's and 90's, or older more used models and just refurbish them to like-new condition.
Oliver Adams
To be fair, they do make some J-Frame models today without the lock
Wyatt Morgan
not the model 36, right?
Adrian Kelly
smith and wesson model 36, or some of the newer models
also, charter arms off duty and under cover have that classic look, and will be a bit cheaper
Matthew Parker
sadly, no
Gavin Smith
sad.
I want to try one of the hammer-less airweights, even if that means having a hillary hole.
Elijah Sanchez
i have one with a hillary hole and it is a great pistol

Jaxson Clark
the hammerless models like the 642 and 442 are the two that have no lock versions
