I carried a 3" Model 13 for an off duty gun when I first started in L/E back in the 80's. It made a good companion to my 25-5 and the Mod 36 I carried as a BUG.
I have my wife's model 65, but I am saving that for my daughter to use in the next couple of years. I was actually looking for a old model 13, but the SSR just called out to me. I guess I am having a mid life crisis..........I suppose the SSR is cheaper than the $103,000 Corvette I was drooling over at the fair.
