I fired a scandium J-frame that someone brought to CSA. It stung my hand but I would have no problem carrying one for defense use. How much benefit the 2" .357 gains over a 2" .38spl +P I don't know, and the scandium guns are a lot more expensive than the alloy .38's.
A 2.5" M19 or 3" SP101 is no big deal to me. I thought the 3" full underlug M60 would make a good field gun but couldn't justify actually buying one. I've fired the 3" 696 and 4" 629 without difficulty, but for some reason the 3" M24 hurts my hand.
