I agree and Smith has a couple real nice revolvers on the market.
I'd seriously consider this for an everyday carry gun:

Note the weight, front shorts pocket carry shouldn't be an issue and the ammo is lite. I'd rather get shot with .380 than a 22 mag.
The reason I'd consider it is less than impressive performance with my Kahr.40 using hot loads on a porcupine and raccoon.
