It's been awhile since S&W had anything like a 380Auto!

I have a Smith and Wesson M&P 340 in .357 mag with an aftermarket crimson trace laser sight and a tritium front sight. At 13.3 oz(unloaded), it's a pleasure to carry and the potency is reassuring. The five shots of .357 magnum coupled with the laser sight and the tritium front sight make it a lot of pistol in a little package. It has another trick up its sleeve too, the hammerless feature allows it to be emptied from/through your jacket pocket if need be which is a big deal if you really think about it. I like a full sized .45 for concealed carry but, more often than not, this little pistol is way more practical. It kicks harder than my .500 magnum though.

I love the smell of a new firearm thread in the morning.

Very nice. I had been seriously considering the Ruger LCR but will have to give this a hard look.

I think I’ll put the .38 on my wish list. Just picked up the .380 Ruger LCP I ordered before Christmas.

The revolver reminds me a lot of my Colt Detective Special, but with 1 less shot and no external hammer.
