Taurus model 85 liteweight is a good money saving option. Got the liteweight for my ol' lady, blue steel for baby sis.

If you're buying for personal defense and know (be honest) you're not going to get a lot of training and practice go with a wheel gun. Hard to clear a jam with some guy beating or stabbing you.

The .38 is my wife's piece, My CC is a Taurus Public Defender. It's a tad larger but still conceals well.
