Regarding your request for a .357 carry gun. I would recommend one of the new Ruger KLCR-357's. These are quality made, dependable and light enough to actually carry.
.357 magnum, 5 shot, black stainless steel frame, 17.1 oz. wt., smooth trouble free trigger pull. It would run you 442.32 + tax. If interested or if I can help you with anything else, feel free to give me a call or e-mail me.
Thanks,
Paul
