I’m not real interested if the perp likes the way it looks or not. I’ll go with “function”. One vote for Ruger. Thanks!

I am. It would kill me if they hated my gun.

Yep. rugers are well built and will last. S&W do not do well with hot loads, is the usual wisdom. (Except maybe for the big bores like 460, 500 or Governor).

I choose Ruger too. As noted by others, .38 Specials would be my main choice for ammo in a snubby. I have a Ruger Stainless revolver with the 6.5" barrel. The extra weight is nice for a .357 round and I can hit a 5 gal bucket at 100 yards with it. I keep it loaded with 38 Special hollow points and have 2 speed loaders of .357 and 2 speed loaders of 38 Special ready for use. Don't care if I never shoot another .357 with it, but it does give one the option of really reaching out and touching someone if the extra oomph is needed. Of course, at 62 (still work out so in decent condition) the extra "bang from the buck" ain't as neat as it once was.
