Ruger LCR .357, $389.99 Smith 360 Scandium .357, $589.99 Smith Bodyguard .38 w/laser, $399.99 Smith 442/642 two-tone .38, $399.99 All prices from CDNN I've shot the Smith 442 and the Ruger .357. IMHO, the Ruger has a much better trigger and less felt recoil than the Smith, shooting .38 ***edit: The 360 Scandium referenced above has a spur hammer, OP (I think) is looking for an internal/shrouded hammer).
