Small world...I carry a K frame S&W stainless .357 with a 4” barrel and hogue grips.
But I’m old school.
I have 3 S&W .357 magnum revolvers that I love and will not part with-the aforementioned M&P340, a 686 deluxe 3” barrel, and an 8 shot 327 night guard with a 2 1/2” barrel. I love them but I carry a Glock 20 or 29. The 10mm auto has more energy than the .357 magnum (especially with the short barrels) and more rounds in the magazine plus less recoil and blast. I have a 3” 629 that is probably my favorite pistol. I am set up to carry it but I don’t. usually.
