This gun is a great option for new gun owners, that need a gun they can train with in addition to carrying. I\u2019m not saying you can\u2019t learn on a snub nose, but the curve is going to be steep. The 3-inch option gives a bit more sight radius, and the additional weight helps tame the .357 Magnum recoil a bit more.
